Was going to run another comp this year DA. Still waiting fro Dinglinga to post a shot with his "Millwall" top.

Will start a new thread in a week or two when the transfer market settles down.

That would be sweet mate. Sorry, I wasn't insinuating that you should do it, but if you have the time....great!

I passed through Millwall last weekend and :shock: :shock: what a mix of new (buildings in Canary Wharfe) and old (council estates in Millwall).

Keane's scored once, Bent's score 7.

And we taught Keano's boyhood's team a lesson in clinical football.

EDIT - It wasn't keane that scored it was other new signing Ngog.

I read a stat somewhere in that the 7 seasons Keane was at Spurs he never scored before September.

Had a chat with SJABC on Snouts Hill after the Norwood game re Spurs and his mob.

Think this Bywater and Robbo have something in common and that is picking the ball out of back the net.

I know premiership tables don't lie, but surely Spurs had the personnel last season to finish much higher than that? I know bad starts are notoriously difficult to rectify, but I really thought Spurs would give the 4th spot a serious challenge last season.


That a fair call CP especially after coming fifth two seasons in a row. But for some reason the Spurs management wanted to bring the JOL era to an end. And when everones not moving in the same direction we all know what happens.
After Ramos arrived it was rebuilding time till after the Carling Cup and then we had little to play for.
Have a lot of confidence that Ramos will push us back up to the top six.
Bring it on.
