bon3yard Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I wish Spurs would stop doing this to me. Another fine showing against a quality Side which has me hoping against all previous experience that our time is coming. It all looks so shiny and promising doesnt it..the new season. Tarnish free and unsullied by terrible away defeats in the League/FA cup and our ritual spanking by the scum down the road. This is what keeps us coming back year after year. The sceptic in me knows that all the pretty football could come tinkling down around our heads if a few of our new recruits get kicked up in the air by some hairy northern brute next weekend. Still where theres hope theres a Spurs fan... Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/1210-football-focus/page/136/#findComment-124892 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annasfield Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Chin up - the giant may have just been having a snooze last season. ;-)How many pre-season goals is Bent on now? 10? Pretty impressive.

bon3yard Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 13 all told. Hmm, this particular giant has been damn near comatose for the last 25 years.

ratty Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I'd rather my team were not associated with fake fans like that - but each to his own I guess.I missed the Tevez incident - I was having a piss!

Jah Lush Posted August 11, 2008 Author Share Posted August 11, 2008 Bon3yard, as a fellow Spurs fan I share your fears and pain. It all looks good judging by pre-season form and with Bent scoring 13 goals already before the real business begins I just hope he can take that form into the Premiership especially as Berbatov will probably be off to Man Utd before the month is out.Whupping Roma five-nil has gotta be good for the morale. Another good pre-season then, so let's hope we can win something again this year and improve vastly on last season's eleventh place.

Annasfield Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Rumour has it this morning that Henry is off to Manc land, not Berbatov. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/1210-football-focus/page/136/#findComment-125010 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandperson Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Hmm, been around for a week or two now as Spurs are holding out. I don't believe it myself but it'd be interesting. Personally thought that Nani, Fletcher and Campbell (Fraiser) looked good enough yesterday to create/score. No doubt we need another striker but I'm not sure if we are too desperate.

ratty Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I thought Frazier Campbell looked a good prospect yesterday. Henry at Manure woould be lethal imo!

Keef Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Sandperson, what I thought was interesting about that story was The court had heard that Mr Collett could have earned more than ?13,000 a week, making a total in excess of ?16m if he had played until the age of 35. Unbelievable isn't it. Especially as ?13,000 a week is nothing for a top player these days.

Sandperson Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Totally unbelievable. The whole game beggars belief tbh. Aren't Chelsea talking about ?78M for Kaka. What will his weekly wages be? Ronaldo wanted ?120,000 plus.?13,000 is jobbing wages in the Championship now isn't it?

mockney piers Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 What's to hate about joey?A bit dim, but nice lad. Doesn't suffer from too badly egomania, or lamparditis as it's now known (though gawd knows there were a plethora of proposed names for that one; bellamynia for the violent tendency variety).

mockney piers Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Wow, rumour mill west am way is that Joey is looking for a season loan at his old club.Sounds a bit wishful thinking but there you go.Anton not signing new contract, but he's a tit so good riddance, not that we are exactly spoilt for choice at the moment in that position.
