If it was a footy game Tottenham would have won by 5 goals and deservedly so.
Because its a stupid soccer bloody game it was a 1 all draw.
Stupid stupid game. :evil:

It'll show on the scorecards at a 93rd minute equaliser to Man U but I can't work that one out since the first half went for 48.5 mins, it was actually a 97 min equaliser.

Poofs game. :evil:

Im going to watch the Grand Finalf between Leeds and St Helens in the Rugby League for the 50th time on my IQ now to remind me of how a real game pans out.

ANGRY!!!!!! :evil:


Now, now!!

I was at the game and agree totally though that it was the wrong result. That F****** s*** eating wanker with the whistle Mark Clattenburg couldn't make the right decision if his illegitimate childs life depended on it. What a complete muppet. :evil:

Still, Spurs should have taken their chances in the first half when Berbatove hit a great volley chance over the bar, then in the second when Robbie Keane only had to beat Van Der Sar, but basically passed the ball directly to him.

Spurs DOMINATED the entire game all over the park. Then Utd win a corner in the 94th F***ing minute, after the 4th official indicated only 3 mins of added time, Dawsons faffed about with Tevez and Spurs only get 1 point for their troubles.

Got to add that Hargreaves is absolute bollocks. Had no impact on the game and isn't up to the standard. Compare him to Aaron Lennon who's getting back to full fitness and is looking like becoming Englands best winger.

Once again, like in the Liverpool v Spurs game at Anfield, most fans would be happy with a draw against Utd home or away, but Spurs manage to leave their fans disappointed.

Will chuck some pics up shortly. I'm embarassed how many I took of Ronaldo. My missus is concerned I'm turning. :oops: :oops:

Oh, and Wegie, I hope you stayed up to Watch the Leeds Superleague game tonight. After being dead and buried down 14-2, came back to win 20-14. Rugby really is an ugly game though, just can't get into it.

Fair play to Jermain Defoe today for scoring the equaliser for Pompey against Chelski. In my mind, he's still Yido!

No Powder Puff guernsey today. Tottenham is the sort of area where you don't put 1 foot wrong. I saw 3 people receive the Glasgow kiss resulting in broken noses outside the ground. Disgraceful.

My seats were very close to the action (3rd row), but they were rubbish because:

- You can't see the play on the opposite corner of the pitch
- All the players use that stretch of the pitch to warm up on the sidelines, creating further viewing issues,
- It's in the West stand, full or corporates who don't sing, so crap atmosphere.
- It's right next to the travelling Utd supporters, who made plenty of noise (to their credit)
- It cost 61 pounds, whereas better viewing sets up higher cost 30-40 pounds.

Still, cant complain, as I was bloody lucky to get in and it was great to see Man Utd with their great players and also to see Spurs play so well.

Pity about the result! :(

Nice work DA.

At least Shrek got booked for diving in the PB. Another ref would have given him a penalty.

Hahaha, that was one of the most disgraceful dives I've seen, but still thought Clattenbum would point to the spot.

On diving, did you see the Villareal (I think) player dive against Osasuna during the week? Not 1 player near him, arched the back and chucked himself down like he'd been shot. It was beyond disgraceful, he embarassed football as a game.

Pity about the Clarets mate, still they're well within striking distance of a play off spot and it's a tough gig to even grab a point at WBA at the minute.

This is a bizzare one. Jermaine Defoe is still a Spurs player. He has been loaned to Portsmouth for 2 reasons:

1. The paperwork to complete a loan is lighter than a full transfer and given the deadline was approaching, both clubs agreed to a loan to get the move through in time.
2. Spurs wanted a clause excluding JD from Pompey's game at White Hart Lane in March. Under FA rules, this is only allowed when a player is on loan and cannot be included in a transfer contract.

Interesting move by both clubs. If Berbatov of Keane are injured, we can call Defoe back for the Carling Cup :lol: :lol: :lol: 8)

Not sure what's happening with Benjani. He's still in Manchester waiting for the FA to rule on whether the deal can go through. The question must be asked in both cases - why did they wait until the last minute? Bloody agents!!!

Yeah, watched the goals this morning. One WBA goal was so offside it was a joke. Speaking of offside, what about Andy Johnsons goal against b4st4rd rovers. Now that was a joke.

Was a cold day all over the country. Saturday we got about 5 or 6 inches of snow, -2 or 3 with a 50 mph windchill factor making it around -8. Spring is just around the corner :roll:

The mo was a cracker, especially with the tatt in the side. He was one scary man, and I'm glad he was sitting between me and the Utd fans!

It actually wasn't too cold. Nothing a few pints and a chicken shish with chilli sauce didn't ward off. Probably about 8 degrees in the big smoke on Saturday, plenty of sun and with Spurs on fire, I was toasty warm!!!
