Spurs Away thread

[Irishnev]

True, but Matip has an old body now. I'm not surprised he's making tired swings in the final minutes. I love Matip but his time went at the start of last year.

I’d have shipped him out gladly and replaced him in the summer but he’s here and he defended really well today. Put in a shift like that and anyone would be tired - I’m not putting blame on him even if he had a 50p foot

All the blame is on the officials - it’s beyond ridiculous at this stage, it genuinely feels like there is bias against us with the amount of shocking decisions we get

[ric.williams]

Has there been a lot more red cards this season in general, it feels like there has been

im guessing you have just been watching liverpool games?

[Kenneth]

You have him marked as a useless cunt. Go play with yourself!

You’re cross, so go and take it out on the Mrs or something instead, you loon.

[Clapper]

Martin Jørgensen and Brian Laudrup on Danish TV disagrees with the red card, also highly critical of VAR.

[Buzzo]

I reckon the boys will be absolutely fuming after that. We can really use it to power our season (assuming we are going to not get ****e refs every game). We look like an absolute machine going forwards really really slick.

When you have a ref gunning for you like that lot were you’ve got no chance. And we still nearly escaped with a point.

[Assassin]

Your cross, so go and take it out on the Mrs or something instead, you loon.

Far from angry. Just don’t suffer fools like you gladly

[Tatterdemalion]

Postecoglu at least being fairly balanced in his after match talk.

[Kenneth]

Grow up

If you actually, as opposed to just being contrary for the sake of it (for a change) believe that Jones was a red card then there is genuinely no point in conversing further

Jota was stupid but he didn't touch the player for the first yellow

How anyone can not blame the ref is farcical

Jones deserved the red. It’s not the 90s, they’re always red, whatever a load of players from the 90s might say about it.

The offside was very dubious, but the ref didn’t flag it. He gave one wrong booking against us (jota’s first), big deal. Far too many people looking for an easy scapegoat rather than addressing what actually happened.

[Venton]

Dodgy af. But I think we may be contenders again. Brilliant spirit.

YNWA

good group working really hard for each other

Yes, if there is one thing to take out it's that we are ****ing resilient. It took a **** ref and VAR to beat us there. We nearly took a draw out of it despite being robbed.

And if Spurs think they're the bollocks after this they are deluded. It took us going down to 9 men, a disallowed goal and an own goal for them to win in the last minute. They should be thanking their stars.

[BG1973]

Did anyone else notice when the ref went to the screen for the red the first thing he saw was a freeze frame of Jones making contact rather than the footage from the start. Surely you don’t show that and you show the full tackle in proper speed to start. If the first thing you see is the final part that’s going to influence your decision.

Exactly, I don't understand why they only showed that freeze frame and angle. Isn't the point to aid the ref making the correct decision. Not one the one cheating **** on VAR thinks

[BG1973]

Jones deserved the red. It’s not the 90s, they’re always red, whatever a load of players from the 90s might say about it.

Harry Kane disagrees.

Urgh. It’s impossible not being able to hate a Spurs manager FFs.

[Kenneth]

Harry Kane disagrees.

Recall how you felt about that?

[Venton]

More than anything I'm pissed off at having to listen to Kelly's inane questioning whilst waiting for the VAR replay.

"How important was that as a win?"

"It was massively important...."

Who needs ChatGPT when humans are mimicking computers?

[Venton]

Urgh. It’s impossible not being able to hate a Spurs manager FFs.

True! The ****er.
