    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Chelsea, Tue May 19th, 8.15pm, Stamford Bridge ***

    Yeah, it’s the fact that anything can happen in football. That’s the sickening feeling. By all rights we should stay up, we should be capable of getting a point versus Everton, but you just don’t know whether it’s going to go like that on the day. In some ways I agree with the ‘if we can’t get a...

    The we are staying up thread

    Not only an investigation but as a matter of urgency it simply needs to be resolved, and clearly communicated to the fans as to what the findings were. The Europa win saved last season from being a waste, but this one has been and could still end in disaster. And at best we’ll finish 17th twice...

    I was meaning more because of the extent of our injuries. He literally can’t bring anyone on in attack except a Maddison that has been out for the entire season. We’re forced to play Kolo Muani on the right, there’s no Xavi, no Odobert, no Solanke. We have to play Richarlison the entire game...

    Ahhhh man that Madders chance was it. Chelsea were rubbish, they have a squad but no spirit or cohesion. We just don’t have the players. They were trying but we played the opposite of calm. And yet another dumb slow motion car wreck of a mistake you can see playing out a mile away. So...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    Agreed. I think RDZ has done an extremely interesting job of holding the line in press conferences. The positivity, the focus on the task, the confidence he has projected. It is absolutely tier 1 leadership, and beyond all the considerations as to whether the league has moved on or his tactics...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    True. Maybe being out of Europe is going to be the change in the cycle that we need to start getting some rest into these player’s bodies. I always used to be worried that without Europe we wouldn’t keep a squad of two good players for every position happy. But with all the injuries we’ve never...

    You meaning the bond markets? I think even this last few days has been really interesting, because while Starmer has not been out there pounding the table with his arguments, once he starts getting these challengers, they start getting scrutiny and you understand more the trade offs Starmer...

    Agreed again. Part of me suspects there’s a way of getting attention in the attention economy and not being quite like the worst elements of it. But at the end of the day it’s where we are because of the dominant platforms. Maybe something changes this dynamic when the next platform shift...

    Agreed on the last Labour conference thing. It was completely embarrassing to be honest. He started off making a loud of noise. and Starmer’s operation went out and hit him hard as the second coming of Truss. And then he left early! I think he’s a chancer too. And not a particularly smart one...

    Just listened to the View From the Lane and I thought Jack Pitt Brooke did a great job of ridiculing some of the perspective ahead of this match. ‘The Chelsea fans will DEMAND they perform against Spurs!’ as if those players have given one tiny care about those fans for months now. Ok Alonso...

    Robertson too, some experience. I don’t hate it. Especially given the timeline to get Sousa into PL shape / Udogie to sort his fitness issues.

    I do agree, if we go down from the position we were handed at the end of the Arsenal / West Ham game, we’ll completely deserve it.

    The we are staying up thread

    I think they collectively made a mistake at the end of the Arsenal game, they acted like they were down. I think they assumed we’d beat Leeds and make it too difficult for them. Lo and behold we gave them another chance. But today they started like their heads had completely gone. And then...

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Chelsea, Tue May 19th, 8.15pm, Stamford Bridge ***

    Still completely weird watching the coverage and the assumption now that West Ham are basically down. I just don’t think that’s the case. It’s a massive step forward for us, but lose to Chelsea which we’re more than capable of doing, and if West Ham win at home, and we lose at home, both of...

    Agreed. I think the original thought was to be steady and calm and ‘let the results speak for themselves’ and centre left parties haven’t wanted to be like Trump, or like Farage. I think unfortunately for them those days are gone. It’s not about being like Trump, it’s that he was one of the...

    Agree with you, no chance they aren’t up for it and they’ve definitely recovered a performance level from the end of the Rosenior days. I think we just have to hope that we can raise our game to at least get a point. I fully believe RDZ will have us prepared, but Chelsea simply have a lot of...

    Had the feeling that Streeting was doing exactly that too. He needs to get Lab members and more MPs meanwhile Burnham needs to win in a Brexit leaning constituency. As much as I think voters preferences may have changed in recent years, I can see it at a minimum being attack on Burnham’s...

    Everyone has the tools in theory but unfortunately we live in the age of the algorithmic timeline. Everyone just gets fed more of what is going to bait them into reacting. I think it’s done enormous damage to democracy - a handful of tech bros had no idea what they were inflicting on the world...

    Ha…I do think the country has gone a bit mad and especially Labour MPs. But I guess if you’re a politician you can’t act as you wish the country to be, but must act as it is. I guess the logic behind Starmer’s approach was to be a canvas which anyone could project their ideals on to. People of...

    Politics, politics, politics (so long and thanks for all the fish)

    Agreed. I think the media also have something to do with this. We have a highly fragmented political system now. We have algorithmic timeliness. So everyone just gets to read what they want. There’s little nuance, there’s no real thinking about trade offs or compromise. And the BBC is always...
