Can't wait for Sunday's game - always enjoy the NLD. Must be a while since we've been favourites like this...
That's keen. 4 am here. Not going to happen with me (sorry - just another plastic).
Probably too much heading of the leather balls
'Triffic lads, 'triffic.
It'd be hilarious if he went to your lot.
I'd be laughing, he's exactly what we need!! Him & VdV would be a deadly strike force!
I'm hoping that Toon have done their one N London team for the season!
Gotta catch 'em all!
...
What? Too soon?
...
Ahem. Well, I'm looking forward to what should be a great game. I don't want your team to lose - I want mine to win!
A good weekend for me at least!
Happy.

Been a while since I headed any leathery balls.
Good to see dos Santos playing again.
Defining images of the EPL #1:
'Triffic lads, 'triffic.
Brilliant result.
I f*cking hate your team, but I'm grateful you won courtesy of decent goals.
In the fine tradition of Spurs against the Sth Londoners:

Listening to Fighting Cock #10. Some very nice links:
That Fighting Cock Podcast is quality. The You Tube link is great, clever man...
Great game today, 4 on the trot eh? (oh stop it..)
Parker is just immense, ARSEne Wenger must have watched today and been kicking himself (or his poor drink bootle) that he didn't snap him up...

He is rather clever and funny isn't he?
Enjoying reading all the discussion on the net today. Two stand out:
1. From DML:
Really pleased with the win but my concern remains our finishing. We are creating many chances but converting them at a poor rate. On next, Newcastle. That is a true battle for 4th.
2. From the Guardian:
A decent result today but in fairness it was at home and against a lesser side. We'll need to improve a bit if we're going to beat Newcastle in the next game.

Hugely hilarious.
I'm still laughing. As I will be in a few months when he trudges around the field agitating for a move.
You can quote me then too (maybe put it in your calendar again to remind yourself?).

As he's on loan he can take that up with Man City.
And he is with you for the season. Plenty of time for things to go wrong, trust me.
'Arry is the best man-manager in the league.
(3, 2, 1...)
Spurs or Newcastle, J82 ; no fencing.

Spurs have the players to do the job, but struggle at SJP.
Too hard to call but I'd almost put money on the Toon to win by 2 goals.
Still - I think if Adebayor, Parker, Modric, Sandro, BAE, Ledley and Friedel start then 1 or 3 pts will be going back to N17. (Edit: and Bale of course!)
I'm just glad it is early on in the season so that a loss either way isn't a big deal.

...um. Do you consider that fencing?
of the number 8 wire variety!
I'm hoping that Toon have done their one N London team for the season!

It will be a great match up and unlike the first game of the season at SJP or the last game at WHL, I'm sure both sides will lift their games against a better quality opposition.
Edit: Just seen that Adebayor is marginal for the match. Presumably Pav and Defoe resume their prolific partnership then. *sarcarstic emoticon*

Adebayor is marginally better than both those two combined. Here's hoping.

A good weekend for me at least!
Sounds like a pulsating second half - sure I'll look back on it and be happy with a point away from home; but like the Nxx last week, one goal up with 3 mins left and then conceding an equaliser always tastes bitter for a couple of days.
'Arry on soccernet being more of a luddite/Mrs Brady old lady than me:
"I didn't see the twit, the tweet, because I can't work a tweeter," Redknapp said. "I don't know what it is. I haven't got a clue what a tweet is. It's beyond me all this tweeting and Facebooking. I don't understand it as I live in another world to that so I don't know if he's tweeted or not.
"In fact I couldn't care if he did or he didn't really. We used to talk to each other at one time and now we talk on computers and all that. I don't know what the world's coming to really."
Up against Rubin Kazan in a couple of days time (who?), then Blackburn away so more game time for the youngsters (and Pav).

Spurs 1-0 Rubin Kazan. Pav strike in 33rd minute then holding on in the second half.
Also Guardian MBM is a few minutes slower than soccernet gamecast.
BBC London - make even the boring bits sound like an impending goal. I have much shorter nails now.
Top of the group table for now and no injuries. Hopefully a rested and fit team for the trip to Blackburn in the weekend.
