  1. Yes, 5 and 6 now qualify for the UEFA cup.
  2. The list Darren Gough as a Spurs fan, I know he supports Barnsley and has even worked as a commentator on some of their matches.
  3. Still a football match, I think you should approach them the same way.
  4. True. Though all of my last 3 pc's I've either built or had built for me and I think I've managed to do it at a fraction of the cost I would have had to have spent had they been factory built. Probably more down to having a few good part suppliers more than anything, but it's not something I would stop doing.
  5. If we don't make Europe it will be a massive blow and I will view the season as a partial failure. I was one of those who looked forward to the season with great optimism and thought we could make 6th. Of course I didn't really expect us to, but now we are here it is our position to lose. Fair enough we aren't in 4th and if Bolton win their games in hand then they go 5th, but 6th as it stands is our's. We have a good end of season run-in and I think we should be able to make top 6, but at worst I'm hoping for 7th with the FA Cup helping us out and getting us the UEFA cup that way, anything else really won't do at this stage. I honestly believe we have a better team than West Ham, Wigan, City and Bolton and I'll be gutted if they finish above us.
  6. Looks decent but I think by building your own or having it built for you, you could get it for less.
  7. Why change what has worked for us all season? Especially when you consider that playing 4-4-2 e have beaten better sides than Spurs in recent weeks.
  8. "Shy of players subceptible to injury" and signing those who's careers are constantly plagued by injury so they play only a handful of matches a year isn't quite the same thing. I don't think a "fully fit" Dunn exists.
  9. Wasn't a particularly good game and I don't think you could say anyone played well really. Bellamy had possibly the best chance of the game for Wales and after a good first touch his finish let him down, not that it was easy. Other than that there wasn't too much to talk about.
  10. Love listening to him. His poetic ramblings are great fun and he does know what he is talking about. It will be a sad day when you can no longer hear him on the radio. The last thing on earth I'd want would be people like him being replaced by yet another former footballer struggling to string three words together. He may not always provide some brilliant piece of analysis but he can sum up the game well and always does it in an original and interesting format.
  11. Ah that was sarcasm? I did miss it then.
  12. He's 21 and has shown great potential in my opinion, why cash in on him? I think he's got a lot of ability and in a couple of years time he could be a very good premiership player.
  13. That's a reflection on the public and not on the work going on at the club.
  14. Totally agree with that. Also interesting looking at dillo dillos spreadsheets and table, last year 4th place had 48 points at this stage and only ended up with 61, maybe we aren't really taking into consideration the impact end of season nerves will have on all of the teams involved in the Champions League and UEFA cup chase. The most any team managed in that final run-in was 18 points, and that was Bolton.
  15. Klaxon could actually be quite good, though I don't think you'll get any reward for it, apart from perhaps getting a poll as to whether or not we want you kicked out.
  16. Impressive...but quite sad really.
  17. Those are his only two goals this season.
  18. If I actually had to make the decision I'm sure I'd go the tried and tested route as well, but it is always nice to speculate.
  19. I actually quite like Emerton and think that recently he has been good when he's come on as a sub, so I for one am hoping he hasn't played his last game.
  20. With Pedersen now out I was thinking to myself that this could be a great opportunity to play a sort of Diamond formation in midfield. Let Tugay sit deep with Reid and Savage in front of him and then Bentley further up in behind a front two if we are feeling adventurous and give the fullbacks full permission to get forward. If not then maybe play Bellamy alone up front with Bentley in behind and a sort of diamond formation with Reid, Savage and Emerton forming the three across the middle and Tugay sitting deep. It will be interesting to see what happens. Can't wait for this game.
  21. Well he's now probably in-line to start in one of our most important games of the season. We'll get to see just how much Hughes thinks of him or if someone like Emerton or Bentley will be stuck out on the left.
  22. Just filled out my results, being generous to all and of course had my blue and white tinted glasses on though tried to be as unbiased as I could. 1. Chelsea 100 2. Man U 88 3. Liverpool 87 4. Blackburn 65 5. Arsenal 64 6. Spurs 57 7. Newcastle 55 8. Man City 54 9. Bolton 54 10. Everton 53 Seems a bit messed up to me so I subtracted 5 points from Blackburn and gave every other team 2 points to try and counter my biased predictions which sees us finishing in 5th though I'm not sure how Spurs and Bolton finished with as few points as they did, especially as I even predicted Spur s to beat us. Oh well, won't complain if that is how the table finishes up.
  23. Bit harsh to say "compare that to under Souness". None of the players we have that can play left wing were signed by Hughes. Also, when Souness had us playing our best stuff we had Duff as first choice with Mahon as a decent back-up.
  24. That would be great, very surprising, but great. Yes, now top 6 make europe.
