Was at that 67 cup game  Tony Ford missed penalty ref said had to be taken again Chris Crowe grabs the ball takes the penalty and proceeded to put the ball a good five yards wide! Jimmy Greaves showed how to score a penalty in last minute sending Gibbo the wrong way!!

I was there arrived at 12.00 to get into the ground when the gates opened at 1.30 ,front row of the Paxton Road end.

For those interested Spurs team that day.

Unable to watch a football match as a neutral whoever is playing always want one team to win.

Unless of course it's Man City v Chelsea when I want both to lose.

Is there anything we can do to stop new accounts?

this Lez, Chris, Dog, etc thing is becoming a joke.

can we restrict posts to say 1 per day for 10 days, or something like that?

All sounds a bit Big Brother to me ( George Orwell not the vacuous game show)

Certain irony that our most prolific poster is requesting a restriction on the number of posts for new accounts.

Nope, HMS Bristol was a Type 82 Destroyer whose final role in the Navy after leaving Frontline service in 1991 was as a harbour training vessel in Portsmouth. She is now berthed at the top end of Fareham Creek in Portsmouth harbour with a number of other ships, awaiting disposal by scrapping. 

It's posts like this that put winning a game of football into perspective.

Clear ,concise and informative.

Well played Sir

When they say betting on matches can anyone clarify, what is wrong with 50p on say Man Utd to draw at Villa or does it concern bets placed on matches in which he plays (first booking etc).

Taking my tin pot scenario further if the 50p becomes £10k does that change anything? if he is betting on matches where he can determine an outcome, that is obviously a problem and he deserves everything coming to him 

Or is all betting on football against the rules for players

It's all a bit Alan Partridge.

He needs,to peel the oranges at ht move over for a,proper manager .

The sooner the better ,how anybody thinks results or performances are going to improve is beyond me.

He is clearly the wrong man for our club and should be shown the door ASAP

The worst of all worlds would be to allow matters to drift along until the end of the season ,invest over the summer and find ourselves in the bottom 3 after say 10 games.

Even when we win the football is just so dull, who ever comes in next can we please have an Ange Postecoglou disciple rather than a Pep Guardiola tribute act.

Perhaps it is because  I am not the target audience  but frankly I haven't a clue what all this means.

It may as well be written in Greek for all the sense it makes to me

We changed tonight from a predominant 424 block (with pressing triggered when appropriate) to something more like a 442 block (with less triggers). 

My lasting impression of Wes Burns was when he came on as a substitute can't remember the match.

To say it was the worst cameo performance by a professional footballer I have ever seen would not be an exaggeration.

Good for him that he has overcome that particular performance.

I'll listen to posters on here that actually have a clue.

Good luck with that, if they did they wouldn't be wasting their time by posting on here.

I can dream .

Saw them at Knebworth in 1976 not a bad line up.

After dinner my wife asked if I could clear the table. I needed a running start, but I made it.

Well worth a watch .

Ivan Sproule's goal from a Basso throw at 10.16

Does anyone know if we have a trophy cabinet or is that just wishful thinking.

"The great fallacy is that the game is first and last about winning.

It is nothing of the kind.

The game is about glory, it is about doing things in style and with a flourish, about going out and beating the other lot, not waiting for them to die of boredom.”
