That's 3 different threads bumped just on account of Spurs being 0-1 down

Dawson out for up to 12 weeks with ruptured ankle ligments

[Craig_H]

****, that's a ****ter. Always liked and rated Dawson, very solid and reliable whenever i've seen him and pretty underrated generally, compared to people like Gary Cahill.

I could be coming to this from a Benderesque angle, but i just heard an apparent quote from Gareth Bale, saying how he's managed to get a couple of players sent off this season with his crafty dives.

It was said by Keyes, who first read a Bale quote where he was defending himself, saying it's not diving, mereley avoiding getting a career ending knock from an incoming tackle, but then Keyes read the other quote about him getting players sent off.

Disclaimer: Can i just say, that while i may occasionally listen to Keyes and Gray, i do it through loyalty to my club, and on the basis of...'Know your Enemy!'. Thank You.

Who the **** is Keyes?

Who the **** is Keyes?

Fat cunt, used to work on Sky, hairy knuckles...you know the one

Harry Redknapp says he is "not sure" whether he wants to take the England job and admits it would be "difficult" to make the transition from club boss to international manager.

Redknapp is the overwhelming favourite to fill the vacant England manager's job following the resignation of Fabio Capello.

The Tottenham manager has spent the last month dealing with questions about the position, and a number of high-profile managers and players from within English football have backed the 65-year-old to succeed Capello.

Redknapp has blown hot and cold when asked about the job, admitting it is the "ultimate" position for any English manager while also conceding it would be hard to leave Spurs after three and a half years of success.

"I'm not sure," Redknapp said in an interview with L'Equipe when asked if he would like to manage England.

"I have a very good job at Tottenham today and I like it. But I do not know. We will wait and see."

At 65 years old, Redknapp would be forgiven for wanting to give up his daily gruelling routine of driving 125 miles to Tottenham's training ground, but he says his life at the London club is blissful and admits the challenges facing an international manager are totally different to those at club level.

"When you have a club, you are looking for a striker and you take them. When you're coach, you must do with the players you have in your country," he added.

"If you do not have a good scorer, you have none. And you almost never see the players. Two days all two months: it is very difficult."

The FA have said they will wait until the "back end" of this season before making an approach for their preferred candidate as they are keen not to disrupt any domestic manager in charge of a club.

Redknapp is determined to continue with life as normal until the FA come calling, and has revealed that planning has already started on summer transfer targets.

After three successive defeats, Redknapp now faces the worrying prospect of seeing Spurs slip out of the race for Champions League football despite looking certain of a top-four spot at the turn of the year.

Is he driving a Ford ****ing Cortina?

Yeah driving is ****ing gruelling in an S-Class Mercedes, poor old cunt.

[Chris]

He's an utter cunt with this "might, might not" stuff and it's clearly ****ing up their form.

[Dhav]

I would have thought that now would be the perfect opportunity to take the England job before his reputation, a long with Spurs' league form, plummets further. Spurs are showing their true colours now and if they are not careful they will slide down the table and out of the CL places. I can easily see them being overtaken by Arsenal, and by the Chavs if they sort themselves out under Di Matteo

[Norbs]

He'll never take an international job unless they bring in a transfer system. He'll get his spelling/reading assistant to go on google translate to find out what 'brown paper bag' is in other languages

Spurs fans must be getting worried now, 1 point ahead of Arsenal and on a **** run.

Might miss out on the top 4 all together at this rate
