Come to Crawley.

I used to go to AFC Wimbledon regularly and they're a lot more entertaining than this.

Lennon needs to come on I think. Need width on the right, when Rafa is in the middle and Walker is left at the back, there is nobody on that wing. And Lennon should be playing anyway.

Crawley = constant hoofball

This is one Tottenham game though, and Sunderland are just sitting back. If both were attacking it would be more entertaining.

Well that was boring/shit

Thought we were playing stoke most of the game.

BUT it was a good point. Was our hardest game left really and we've come away with a point. Should have been more but oh well.

A riveting game of football.

We had like 70% possession.

Try 56%

They had 70.7%.

Not according to the BBC.

Well the BBC are wrong like they always are. I am looking at Opta stats and Tottenham had 70.7% possession.

what app is that Mal.

BBC are always shit with the possession stat.

thoroughly shite game

I would've taken the point beforehand, so I'm happy with a point. Need City to do us a favor tomorrow though.

I would've taken a point beforehand but after seeing how they played and the amount of the ball we had I'm disapointed to not have scored a goal.

Seems we were conservative for Monday IMO.

You have a very poor quote at the top of your blog...

“It is better to fail aiming high than to succeed aiming low. And we of Spurs have set our sights very high... so high, in fact, that even failure will have in it an echo of glory!” ― Bill Nicholson OBE

4th, very high?

Coming 5th or 6th will not have an echo of glory.

At least you've seen my blog.

Europa League is still a realistic trophy though.

You do need to remember though that specific quote was probably said in the 60s when we were the top team, or one of them at least. The quote in itself means that no matter where we finish, as long as we entertain and play well despite results we can still be happy.

I know.

It was a very good quote back then.
