[Rorz88]

What tube station is everyone travelling to? Seen a few people saying they will go Seven Sisters and then walk but White Hart Lane is closer? Any reason people wouldn’t go WHL station? Travelling down on my own (family let me down) and want to make it as easy as possible

Would like to see something like this with Kev getting more minutes off the bench and maybe Stones & Erl aswell.

Thought the 1894 mob would have organised a mark to the stadium German style

We (Spurs) are going to win 5-4. You will have an equaliser chalked off by VAR in the 95 minute. You know it is true.

Cant wait. Friday night. Under lights. Full stadium. Neither side has anything to lose.

Speak for yourself mate, we have plenty to lose. I’m fucked off walking away from your stadium without so much as a single goal to cheer..

3-1 City this, the spuds Hoodoo dies on its arse on Friday night .. :-)

You dont have anything to lose cos you never win trophies anyway. When did you last win a trophy was it in the Hoddle and Ardiles days?

We're currently FA cup holders so we do have something to lose. Although I see plenty of goals Friday night. I hope var as nothing to do with the result. CTID

Who was the guy who thought he discovered the word cortege without knowing it was commonly used in the English language?

Anyway off to see one man animal farm instead at the Wilton. Looks amazing and the site advertising did its job.

Wasn't that how we finally qualified for the Champions League? Crouch own goal the year after he go the winner for them.

Yes, but that was at the Etihad! A joyful evening if ever there was one!

Sadly, we are still trying to christen their new stadium!

 

[blueste41]

Given that they're at home, City's performance history there, etc. It seems like it would have been much shorter. Less than a 25% chance of qualifying is implied by such odds. I would have it about 60-40.

IMO the odds of city winning any match/competition are priced a lot shorter than the true odds. For example were currently 4/5 to win the league, I don't know about anyone else but I don't feel we have a better than even chance of winning it.
I would imagine that backing against City with constant stakes would see a profit.

 

[Crooked_rain]

I see a James Maddison and I raise you KDB!

Anyway, very good player is Maddison. The only person who has more assists in the last 3 years in the league is Kev, and when you consider Maddison was playing for Leicester, that's pretty impressive.

Doubt he starts tomorrow anyway.

Full strength we need to score a goal

 

[Bluewars II]

Doesn't matter who Totspur have unavailable. We've played a weakened Palace, N'Castle, Everton and Spurs and haven't looked convincing (defensively).

We just need to give each team the respect they deserve, every team plays the same way against us, low-block + long ball & counter, press the CBs high and try to rattle Rodri, we should be used to this by now.

The way to beat the Spuds never changes, stay organised defensively (especially centrally, hopefully Stones returns) composed build-up play and wait for them to self-destruct. Don't get involved in an end-to-end basketball match, that's what these choas merchants thrive on.

It will definitely be a basketball match, i think Pep secretly loves that.

Can't stand you jammy cunts 'neither side has nothing to lose'..? we're not mates in this football thing, you're accustomed to losing, City are a winning machine don't put us in the same sentence.

 

[Nethermoor]

Is there any away friendly pubs nearby?

Also if anyone needs a lift from Leeds or on the way down the M1 I have plenty of space in the motor.

Is Pep doing a pressa today?
