Right, first REAL post of the year…
It was FA Cup weekend, and that means every bloke is glued to the TV – the FA Cup never fails to bring some ‘giant killers’ (lower leagues beating the higher leagues etc.). This weekend was no exception… Arsenal lucky to win a draw against Leeds (rematch at Elland Road will bring some money to Leeds, and I wouldn’t like to play up there against 38,000 braying Yorskshire men – c’mon Leeds! 
) Spurs took out Charlton 3-0 to earn a 4th round place away to Fulham – I’m not worried about that though ;), Chelski won 7-0 against […]
Yid army!
Woop, woop! A 3-1 win against Fulham sees us into the semi finals of the FA Cup (it’s not a home tie though – apparently the semis are being played at Wembley…), goals from Bentley (his first touch on as a sub), Pavyluchenko, and Gudjohnsen canceled out the first half goal from Zamora (an ex-Spurs player). In other results, Villa drew against Sunderland, and Everton beat Man City 0-2 – so all in all a good night for the Yids
Mid week football
Tonight Spurs host Fulham in the FA Cup quarter final replay…the wineer plays Portsmouth in the semi final (with the added bonus of a home draw) – woop, woop! Also tonight, Aston Villa play Sunderland and Man City play Everton – to give us a bit of breathing space in 4th place I’d like to see Sunderland and Everton get all the points… Oh, and at some point yesterday I broke 68000 hits Yesterday I got fed up with the ancient mobile I was loaned while my N97 was in for repair so I bought a backup phone – […]
Yid army!
What a game! What a result! It was touch and go for a hat-trick (whether that be an own goal hat-trick, or a Pavlyuchenko hat-trick…) Great game though – we owned it from the kick off totally deserved 4-0 win – fully expected Pav to get the hat-trick with 4 minutes remaining… And so I give you: Roman Pavlyuchenko
Did I tell you the joke about the…
Wait, that’s not for a mainstream audience. Well, Spurs eventually got a draw yesterday, meaning we take Bolton back to the Lane for a reply. And what a dire game it was – Spurs didn’t seem to have even turned up in the first half – there was 5 minutes (after we’d conceded the goal), that we seemed to start playing…then everyone just went to sleep until the second half. Good ol’ Defoe equalised, then we hit the bar a couple of times before getting a penalty awarded to us. Now, all Spurs fans will know – since Keane was […]

So, met up with my mate Gooner earlier for some snooker. Now, we used to play quite regularly, but the last couple of years it’s been sporadic – today was the first time I’ve played in about 9 months, so I was expecting to get my arse kicked… But wait…4-0 up and looking good – finally won 7-2 oh yes, a 3 hour snooker marathon…only thing is though, both of us got parking tickets ‘cos our tickets expired 
Spurs ended up drawing to Leeds in the FA Cup – return trip to Elland Road for us then…that last […]
Fourth round…
Spurs play Leeds tomorrow at 5.15 in the FA Cup 4th round – this is the Leeds that knocked Man Utd out last round, and the Spurs that are playing random football – great win one week, dropping points where we should be getting all 3 the next… Hopefully Lennon will be back pretty soon – his speed is dangerous to defences. After a terrible result at Anfield mid week, Spurs need a convincing win to get the spirits back up so we can carry on going for that champions League spot… Now I’ve bored you all with the football […]
Read MoreHappy Monday everyone!
There, thought I’d brighten up everyone’s week with a happy greeting… Now, down to the real stuff – I HATE MONDAYS! I’m not so bad as I once was, but I hate the feeling when the weekend is finished and a whole week looms ahead – bleah. Had a very quiet weekend myself, ended up knocking myself out on Friday…what happened was I finished work, did a load of running around, then collapsed on my couch. It was when I decided to get a move on and do something that I jumped up, ran into the kitchen, and the next […]
