    The transfer thread

    It's odd that if a player tries to do something good they get brick for it. I guess it's easy to bitch and moan about do-gooders (the complete and utter bastards) than it is to actually try to make a positive change in the world. Non starter with Rashford due to wages, especially whilst Son is...

    Autocorrect round-up thread

    The question is why though. To the posters it's irritating, to the lurkers it's either nonsensical or downright offensive at times. I guess the benefit is watching people moan who could simply just turn the swear filter off (of which I am firmly in that camp). It seems a bit of an "everyone...

    Ange in or out?

    Every manager says that once they've signed a contract. There's only a couple of clubs where a manager is expected to take over an win important things, RM / BM / PSG but generally people are going to state what they want to achieve but then caveat it with "but it will take time". Better to set...

    OMT ** Tottenham Hotspur v Rangers ** Thursday 12 December 2024.

    Down under the bus comes into effect. It's fair enough, you'd expect a pro footballer to be able to trap a ball under no pressure, but those who claim Ange is morally superior to managers who have done more in the game because he cops the blame may have to squirm their way out of that one!

    OMT ** Tottenham Hotspur v Rangers ** Thursday 12 December 2024.

    Seemingly he'll look up, see 3 players in space and then pass it to someone with a rangers player bearing down on them.

    OMT ** Tottenham Hotspur v Rangers ** Thursday 12 December 2024.

    Outplayed and outfought so far. Players getting bounced off the ball. Kulu and Solanke to come on? We shouldn't really need to be as full strength as we can be for this but that's what you get for letting previous results slip. Gray a bit odd with his marauding runs with the end goal to lose...

    The Game Is About Glory Podcast

    In my cynical nature I thought you guys would maybe have been over the top in your condemnation of the tifo throwing to distract attention from the results/ performances etc but instead it was swept aside with a "well Chelsea fans used to do loads worse" - a rather surprising attitude especially...

    Ange in or out?

    They changed their manager and now it's going well....That doesn't suit your idea that changing things is a bad idea.

    Ange in or out?

    For how long does it remain palatable? To be clear I'm on the fence (reads apathetic), but it's not just a patchy bit of form, it's almost pretty much a calender year of bad results. There's no guarantees either way I guess, changing things could make it worse / better, much like if we don't...

    ***** OMT TOTTENHAM VS CHELSKI *****

    That's amazing that you have the specifications on the studs in both pairs of boots, some superb insider information. The change in colour must have been what made the difference then, and there was me thinking the kit man would have multiple versions of the same boots with different sized /...

    Looks like you've responded to the wrong post / in the wrong thread because it's miles off what I have said.

    ***** OMT TOTTENHAM VS CHELSKI *****

    There's an interesting tagline for the gent's pod (which I haven't listened to yet), reasons not excuses. I'm not all too sure on the difference but it's hard to separate it from general bias - when we win we're great and deserve it and it's bad luck when we lose. Apparently Cucurella fell over...

    ***** OMT TOTTENHAM VS CHELSKI *****

    I don't know how to make it clearer and we're already at father Mcdougal with sheep that are near, and sheep that are far away. "If only Bentancur wasn't suspended", well he was. So we're back to the two categories of things that happened, and things that didn't, you can call it deep in a...

    ***** OMT TOTTENHAM VS CHELSKI *****

    6. What happened, happened. 7. What didn't happen, did not happen. That's what I personally think we should focus on, even if it's more painful. Arguably we should focus on the next game obviously but analysis is important and productive, but not "well if only this happened instead of that"...

    ***** OMT TOTTENHAM VS CHELSKI *****

    I hope I'm not coming off too contrarion but any game could go differently. We can use any number of modal verbs to explain away the situation but reality is the best judge. And we're not the only club with injuries and fatigue (you haven't said that we are but some people seem to think we are)...

    ***** OMT TOTTENHAM VS CHELSKI *****

    Elsewhere Chelsea fans could say "Without Cucurella playing slip and slide we'd have won the game 4-1". How is it helpful / even vaguely meaningful to edit out the parts of the game that went against you and keep everything else the same? An augmented reality that suits whatever the bias...

    ***** OMT TOTTENHAM VS CHELSKI *****

    Yup. With various shenanigans at the club over the summer, if someone told you there'd be a game where Yves would be suspended for bookings, Bentancur suspended for racism, would that be surprising to anyone? Gotta fix the engine room, by getting rid of the idiots, discipline/ incidents have...

    Ange in or out?

    The last time we fired a manager we were 4th in the table. Is 11th more palatable because we're often in entertaining games and the manager is eager to cop the blame? I'm not even necessarily Ange out, maybe we'll wait till a cup final and give Mason another crack at it.

    ***** OMT TOTTENHAM VS CHELSKI *****

    The caicedo one? Yah I thought it wasn't even going to be a question on that. What is or isn't excessive force is subjective but usually when someone plants their foot like that on someone's shin they're gone. Most disappointing thing was a bunch of grown men relentlessly throwing crap at...

    No response to any of my questions from @Batspur either, and I was coming from a place of genuinely trying to understand. I appreciate my posting style isn't always of that mindset and isn't to everyone's taste, especially whiny right wing precious little snowflakes, I can't understand why...
