Read MoreThe mighty Spurs roll on…
The last group game ended 3-3 against FC Twente, and Inter lost (3-0 to Werder Bremen) meaning we top the group 🙂 Yes, the Champion’s League newbies end up top of the ‘group of death’ – when the draw was made and we ended up in the same group as the Dutch champions, the German champions, and the existing Champion’s League winners, the odds were on us finishing bottom..oh how wrong they were… So, through to the knockout stage, but with a couple of interesting points: The first team to score at least 2 goals in every group game (Most […]
Read MoreThe calm before the storm
So, this week has been a bit of a breather – not a great deal on workwise this time of year, but the next week or 2 should be interesting what with testing all over the place (well, the UK anyway – furthest I’ll get away is bloody Prestwick 😐 ) So really all I’m doing today is sorting out dates to go different places 🙂 Spurs play Werde Bremen in the CL tonight – a win will guarantee them a top 16 place 🙂 oh, and the gooner scum lost last night to Braga (I’m trying and failing not […]
Read MoreWe beat the scum in their own backyard…
From 2-0 down, we came back at them – 2-3 the result. We finished off the south London nomads – at their place – and did it well…fuck off back to South London. Tottenham Hotspur FC – The Pride of north London 🙂
Read MoreI’ll say it again: un-fucking-believable…
Last night Spurs hosted InterMilan at the Lane – see the post below for the match at the San Siro, where Bale showed the world what a class act he is. Last night he didn’t score a goal himself, but his pace and vision ripped apart the Champions of Europe – probably the best club team in the world. The seeming ease he went past the top right back in the world (Maicon) – I’m betting after 30 minutes he’d wished he’d stayed home. The newbies to the Champion’s League were utterly dominant last night, solid throughout, and everyone played […]
Read MoreAnother great night in Champion’s League football
So you’ve probably gathered that Spurs were playing…and indeed won 😀 Very odd game though – we were awarded 3 penalties (scored 2), had a player sent off (he missed a penalty, then scored a cracker, then got sent off for an ‘over enthusiastic’ tackle), but played so well with 10 men we won 4-1 🙂 So the group A table looks like this: Next game is October 20th – Spurs travel to the San Siro to play Inter…I can’t wait
Read MoreOk, I’m just about happy with the look now
So now all I have to do is write something… 😐 Well, seeing as we got a drubbing last night, I’ll not mention the football… Work is good – looks like I’m off to Spain for the 6 monthly de-icer load testing (fly into Girona, perform test, drive to Reus, perform test, fly home). I’m still considering delaying the return flight for a week so I can have a (relatively) cheap holiday – I’d just have to pay for off-peak accommodation/food/beer 🙂 I’ll have to check the money situation before I broach the subject with Ryanair. Now, off to look […]
Read MoreChampion's League (uh huh – it's more football)
Well, not such an easy draw as some groups: But a group containing the champions (Inter Milan), Werder Bremen, and FC Twente means we’ve our work cut out here – time to show we mean business (and the year(s) end in 00/01 so ya never know…) I’m dreaming of getting a ticket to see Inter at the Lane…first fixture is 14/15 September – I’m frantically checking the UEFA site waiting for the fixtures to be announced and it still shows: I’ve not been this excited since, well, the last time I was this excited… EDIT: Spurs at the San Siro […]
