*** OMT: Tottenham Hotspur vs Crystal Palace ***

[Yiddo]

This was on us really.

Any other day the keeper would not make some of them saves and we would win comfortably.

That's what happens when you only play twenty minutes of football. It was obvious from when we scored. They could not keep hold off the ball for more than two passing sequences.

 

[90291Spur]

Threw away 2pts I am afraid.

Cant really afford to lose at Anfield now

Must win.

 

[SpurMeUp]

Quite an exciting game. Some stunning saves!!!

Talked about it post Arse game - we went into our default defensive mentality, and it wasn't what we needed. Should have seen that out easily if we had the balance of attack-defense right. Still learning and developing as a team.

 

[Daisuk]

Ah, that tinkled me the fudge off, but overall a deserved result. But so fudging close. fudge.

 

[Lemonade Money]

That's the risk you run with this flimflam anti football

Yeah, top of the league bollox.

 

[Bishop]

Why do they always have games like this against us?

We were totally passive in the 2nd half, we said to them come and score if you think you're good enough and guess what, they were.

 

[Yiddo]

We were terrible until after they scored. Ref had nowt to do with it.

We were terrible but the ref still had a fudging shocker.

 

[paxtonwolf]

Good point at their place, Palace played really well.

Agree.

Before the run start you would have probably taken 8pts from these last 4 games, but just a shame once we got in front we didnt see it through

 

[nayenezgani]

Two points lost from that second half performance. We were clueless until the equalizer.

It wasn't clueless, it was a clear attempted plan, just a poor one. The response to their goal is how we should have played from the off.

I was talking about the keeper. Another day we could have had 4.

 

[Bedfordspurs]

Think it will also show opposition teams that at 1-0 down we wont bother to attack and if they bide their time they can get something out of us. It is a psychological thing but all teams whether great or indifferent should go for the second goal.

Still need players to create though
And you would still need to be able to stop us getting more... there ain’t many who can do that as we have already seen this season

As I said an hour and a half ago: @milo Holdburg

 

[Armchair Expert]

Some of the whinging on here is fudging atrocious. We've drawn, away from home, after conceding for the first time in 8 hours. Did you think we'd never, ever drop a point again? Football is a brick industry, and football fans are honestly a an absolute bunch of clams, and there are plenty on this board too, judging by the comments.

We were 14th just over a year ago, now we are spending time at the top of the league. And people are having utter hissy fits like a bunch of self entitled 12 year olds.

Honestly, such a pathetic bunch of fudging cretins. I think some people need to fudging grow up and put things in perspective.

 

[billyiddo]

Yeah, top of the league bollox.

Let's see where we are come the end of the season eh because we can get top 4 without having to play in this manner.

 

[Mikey10]

Agree with Souness on Hugo. He’s got to come out and take that ball.

 

[Danishfurniturelover]

I also felt that of the busy Christmas period this was one match where we could have rotated and given the top 2 a rest.

 

[Pirate55]

Their keeper inspired today. Doesnt bidé well.

Unfortunately their keeper had another Darrow or Krul against us. I could see it happening from early on.

 

[Robspur12]

Yeah, top of the league bollox.

Nothing is won at Christmas but we can halt our momentum. We should be winning these sorts of games if we want to win the league. Palace were hammered by Chelsea.
