My take, my rant...
Like Pirate55 and a few others, I'm unhappy we let a 2-0 lead slip and it's now 27 years. It were a chance to get that particular monkey off our backs, but instead, both our full-backs had to go all macho when a little streetwise was required. When you're 2-0 up, by all means laugh at them, dish out some verbals, but don't leave a foot in when they're on the ground and the ball has rolled out for a goal-kick. And don't be a fudgewit by squaring up to their fudgewit with a minute left in the first half. Both Rose and Walker need to catch up on some videos from the likes of Maldini, Cafu, Lahm so as to up their full-back intelligence because deary me sad to say, both did come across as a right pair of dullards.
We should've won that game and if in the process picked up four, maybe five yellow cards maximum, that would've been fine with me, more so if Fibreglass and Hazard had to limp off injured.
How the Cahill goal was allowed to stand I'll never know and by a CL official too. We should've surrounded the ref for that and held the game up for a bit so as
to protest Dier being held by Ivanovic.
However I also share the viewpoint of Glorygloryeze and others, that some are going well OTT with their criticisms of our young players and manager.
The past few months our young players have been portrayed as the villains of the piece for daring to challenge the Leicester City fairy tale. Yet, we have done things the right way, played some great football, entertained millions and yet the media has been anti Spurs all the way. In all my years of watching football I can never recall bias in a title run-in such as this. I saw Jason Mohammad, Jason Roberts, Kevin Kilbane on the football focus programme celebrating a last minute Leicester City goal vs Norwich, with Jason Mohammad wetting himself and saying to the viewers, that he has never in all his time in the studio, seen a studio erupt with such happiness at a goal being scored. All of them nodding in agreement that the whole nation is willing on Leicester to win! Taxpayers money spent for theses luvvies who do not posses an inkling of impartiality or understanding that Norwich City, who suffered that undeserved injury time goal were in a relegation dogfight, and Norwich City fans don't they matter?
A couple of weeks back on MOTD, our friend Tim Sherwood dared to suggest that it'll be good for the run-in if Leicester were to lose a game to make it really exciting up untill the last day. I thought for a moment that Trevor Sinclair who was sat beside him , with that glare was going to stick one on our Timmy!
With all this Media bias against us, our players have also had to deal with players and managers of of forthcoming opponents to Leicester City coming out with their rubbish that they would like Leicester City to win the league! Like I've already said, I have been watching football for many years and I just cannot recall an instance like this. Liverpool in their heyday against other teams, never did I hear the other team being talked up in this way by those within the profession themselves. The Manchester United- Arsenal rivalry, did we hear players of other teams saying they would rather Arsenal win the league or, would rather Manchester United win the league? Spurs, ourselves have been put in positions where we are playing a game at the tail end of the season and where we have had to play one of the title chasing teams, have our players or manager ever voiced a preference and that they want the other team to win?
Our players have had to put up with some proper brick thrown their way meanwhile the PL higher-ups have been disgracefully sat on the hands saying nothing.
So yes, our players lost their cool and lashed out against such clamishness in the clamishness heartland but let's cut them some slack and show them just how proud we're of them against Southampton on Sunday.
Fucck em all, Fucck em all...
