    I do agree with this. Burnham has definitely achieved more than Farage. And I do think Starmer has tried to make a virtue of not being Boris Johnson, of not over promising, and being willing to be unpopular short term if it meant long term pay off. Unfortunately it just hasn’t worked, you do...

    Cards on the table, I tend to vote Lab / at least sympathise most of the time with a centre left view of the world. But if Burnham comes in and proposes being way more radical than Starmer the opposition parties will call for a GE and I’d say they would be absolutely correct. Burnham wouldn’t...

    Genuine question but do you think he’s a doer of things because he’s done things in Manchester? Built things, from a lower base in an area primed for regeneration? I’m genuinely curious as to what Burnham is going to do that Starmer couldn’t do, that also isn’t going to have any trade offs...

    I’m sure this is the case. I think Starmer is the most irrationally hated politician in history. The fact that he polls more unfavourably than Liz Truss is just ridiculous, completely preposterous. But clearly the public didn’t like the removal of the WFA, and his ratings plummeted. They’ve...

    If that’s the concern I think they need to review how the whole thing works. Surely the whole point is getting the calls right, while allowing the game to flow as freely as possible. So whatever the mechanism needs to be to get it right, just get it right. Next time the ball goes out, review...

    No, obviously not, but Tel has been part of a team that has overall been terrible, yes he’s a part of that, but it doesn’t mean it’s his level. And I just go back to…this isn’t an 18th placed squad. It just isn’t. I don’t know how else to say it.

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Leeds United, Mon May 11th, 8pm, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium***

    So true on all counts. I also simply do not understand this idea of not wanting to over turn the on field ref, it’s clearly what is happening and I don’t understand why. Ref fraternity protecting each other, but again, why? Who cares! The ref is a human being, no one expects them to be a robot...

    Madders has just posted on his Insta story that ‘the small tiny touch on the ball to change direction came from the outside of my boot, not Nmecha, and I told the ref that at the time but the check was over in 20 seconds. Officials are petrified to make the call on the pitch now due to VAR’ If...

    This is how I feel on the Tel thing. It’s that you could see it coming a mile off, and I think there’s been so many of those examples this season that I find it hard to be…I don’t know, it’s not like my support will waver but surely the basics have to be done well. To see so many situations that...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    I agree with you, I think he stays if we go down, and I think he’s going to somewhat enjoy the opportunity build the club back up in his image. Part of me also thinks the only way to break this home hoodoo is to go down. The players were not calm last night, there’s too much pressure, and I...

    Why would he voluntarily take the pay cut?

    That’s an insane tweet. I think it was mindless and probably came from the brain freezing a bit due to the pressure of the situation but…making it all about him? What a weird thing to say.

    Mathys Tel

    Yeah it was a bit odd how far off it we were after 60 mins. I was assuming given there were no subs until longer after we dropped that the hope was to soak it up and come back strong in the last 10 if needed but…just didn’t work out that way. I think the players may have been surprised at Leeds’...

    I keep thinking about it, and it frustrates the hell out of me. Because games in this league are now seemingly always tight, and we just couldn’t be relied upon to not make a silly mistake. Tel is someone that has worked hard and played well recently. Won the corner at Wolves that led to the...

    Yeah I think this is super interesting. All of the ‘maybe Saudi Sportswashing Machine can still get into Europe’ stuff…I don’t think it matters. Leeds showed up tonight with absolutely nothing to play for and went hard. They’re a decent team in good form. We just have to hope we can do the job against Chelsea...

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Leeds United, Mon May 11th, 8pm, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium***

    I think we had chances eg Richy skied over from Kolo’s cross. I think it was more two teams cancelling each other out. Leeds are good, came to play, and actually it’s just emblematic of where this league has got to. A league where Arsenal can win it with a scrappy goal most weeks. The man to...

    Rightly or wrongly it’s always been the way that if a defender gets a touch then it’s not a penalty. And with that in mind, I don’t think it was a pen.

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Leeds United, Mon May 11th, 8pm, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium***

    Agree with the thrust of your point but I think we created some decent chances prior to 60 mins. After that we were dreadful.

    Tel man….i really like him and really want him to succeed, and the goal is an example of his talent. But to do an overhead kick to clear, to not be aware of surroundings, it’s dumb. It’s the exact sort of nonsense we’ve had to put up with all season. Silly silly, needless mistakes. After...

    *** The official 2025/26 Premier League thread ***

    Yeah, I don’t look at the way West Ham are playing and think they’re guaranteed to lose their next two. Anything could happen at Saudi Sportswashing Machine. If we want to be a PL side, we have to be able to beat a Leeds with nothing to play for at home. Simple as that. Everton too. But it ain’t over till it’s...
