Bet the crowd were enthralled. You can understand perfectly well why Arry would take that opportunity to try out some youngsters, but they really should be giving the tickets away free.
Cudicini, Huddlestone, Pavlyuchenko, Dawson, Corluka & Bassong played & Kaboul & Kranjcar came off the bench . . . . so maybe 1/2 price tickets then ?? :mrgreen:

As for the Scottish teams, all out at the first hurdle :shock: :laugh:

I know one thing about football, it's unpredictable & nothing is ever certain . . . . . except maybe the possibility of the spuds winning the title this year :mrgreen:

Well - I guess there are those who may be doubters - but - for the record, the table is as below 8)

1 Man City 13 31 35
2 Man Utd 13 17 30
3 Tottenham 12 10 28
4 Newcastle 13 7 26
5 Chelsea 13 11 25
6 Liverpool 13 5 23
7 Arsenal 13 3 23
8 Aston Villa 13 -1 16
9 Everton 12 -1 16
10 Norwich 13 -2 16

The pair of you are 5 points behind us annnnnnnnd we have a game in hand.

As I've said before - I'll settle for a top four finish and top London club for this season :neener:

Eeeeeven better if Newcastle hold Chelski for a draw this weekend. :mrgreen:

Spurs have got a decent side and on current form will get top 4 but let's not forget that before this run Spurs last 20 + games was relegation form.

It might not have been mentioned in the press as Spurs Manager is English and has numerous Journo friends but it's a true story.

It's like how Wenger (multiple leagues and trophies) was hammered by the press at the start of the season but teflon Arry was never mentioned even though he was below Wenger.

OK - 'multiple leagues and trophies'
Agreed - he has a great record as a club manager (Even if he has tried at times to build the 2nd French national squad in N. London :neener: )

But

The difference between Whinger and 'Arry is that as a rule you won't find 'Arry always blaming the ref for his decisions, or anything else for that matter.
If Spurs play badly - he'll say it; rather than find every conceivable excuse for them as Whinger so often does for the 'Arse.

As the Manager, defend your team? - sure - but don't act like a prize prat in doing so.
