The Ballad of Dan and Big Red
The Gunslingers stood twenty paces apart,
Could have heard a pin drop or a squeaky bum fart,
Big Red had never been beaten at this test,
Some say Dan is the fastest gun in the West.
Not a movement in sight just the steely eyed stare,
Psyching each other out with a glare,
Big Reds fingers flinched as he chewed on his gum,
But Daniel held firm, didn’t reach for his gun.
Then in an instant Red went for the butt,
Dan had a feeling way deep in his gut,
He moved to the Right as he drew from his belt,
Two shots rang out, the hands had been dealt.
Big Red clutched his chest as he fell to the ground,
Daniel moved forward without even a sound,
As the pool of blood beneath Red grew and grew,
Dan shot him again…..To Dare is to Do.

We expected that, I think it’s a blatant manipulation of the rules.
Tottenham did nothing wrong as he went to Standard Liege. They tried to buy him off us and we’d been looking for a certain figure – they wouldn’t pay it but asked if they could take him down there on trial and at that time he was out of contract in June.
He went down on trial. They then said they weren’t prepared to pay the money and all of a sudden he signed for Standard Liege. We knew immediately and suspected that he would return to Tottenham in January and that’s happened.
There’s nothing we can do about it but I think that really we should, first of all, register our discontent, I think the league should look into it.
The registration should be stopped until they investigate it thoroughly. There’s bound to be a trail, either mobile phones or e-mails, that could give you the full story. I must say I’m disappointed in Tottenham. For whatever reason, a club that size has decided to go down this route.

Zeki enjoyed his time at Standard. However when Standard sacked their manager in November Zeki wasn’t part of the new manager’s plans which he accepts and understands happens in football.
Unfortunately a combination of this and the fact he had become homesick meant he wanted to return to England.
His representatives made contact with clubs in England. This afforded us a second opportunity to sign the player and as per Fifa’s solidarity contribution mechanism, Manchester United will receive five per cent of the transfer fee we have paid.

I suggest next time we go to Old Trafford we Tottenham fans eat tons of baked beans
and have a farting contest with their supporters.
They will be no match for us
Then we can go on to bigger and better things. The Semi finals with the Chavs. We need to promote toto promote it…
how about ‘A Bridge Too Fart’

From London 24:
Transfer News: The agent of Lewis Holtby has revealed that Andre Villas-Boas was the reason why the 22-year-old signed for Tottenham, instead of Arsenal, Schalke and Liverpool.
The 22-year-old will make the move in the summer on a free transfer after being at the German club for four years.
“Schalke made Lewis a very good offer, we know that,” Marcus Noack told Goal.com. “But this decision is not against Schalke.
“We had a lot of offers from every top league in Europe. If you look at the whole package, then Tottenham was the best choice.
“Andre Villas-Boas is especially convincing. This is a top coach. The decision to leave Schalke and join Tottenham came in mid-December. And it was very hard for us to choose.”
Who wrote into your old site HH and said this would definatly happen.
As far as I remember even the price is right.
Does he have any more news?!!

Coventry 0 Tottenham Twoo
“There’s nothing we can do about it” and “Spurs did nothing wrong”, but tell you what lets have an investigation anyway shall we. That + the Pardew comments + the ludicrous hypocracy of United tapping up players young and old for decades. The guy is a total pr*ck.
Oh Levy is different all right, as you’ve just discovered.
Ferguson…two weights two measures as always.. this guy feels that because he manages what in his mind is ‘ the biggest club in the world ” he can pontificate to the FA and referees on The Gospel according to the needs of Man Utd… he is so deep into this now he does not realise how ridiculous he has become.
His comments on the wee club in the north east can only foment hatred and they will come back to haunt him soon.. considering it was only last season when his team got beaten at this wee club.. Pardew was right in pointing out Ferguson”s now institutionalsed bullying of officials , yet as Wenger said , Ferguson once again gets away with this bullying.
Now he turns his venom on us with his ” Levy fingerprint ” slur.. maybe the mind games have started in view of his imminent visit to The Lane ..
Where’s all d lillywhites at
The anger we all felt when a United shirt was donned at the bulgarian airport while Berba was still with us.
This lad might have a future at Spurs but a nice bit of business like this doesn’t come close to making up for SAF tapping up Berbatov
Want to know something beautiful? Standard Liege have had an official partnership agreement with Real since 2008.
We announce an agreement with Real days before the kid signs for Standard. Can you join the dots? :)

Slur Alex is showing signs of losing it.
Other managers, other clubs, match officials don’t play by the rules but he does?
So Man U had no contact with Berbatov or Carrick without Spurs’ permission ? Or Rooney or Van Persie? etc etc etc
Ferguson is a great manager but has been getting away with it for years. If he goes on like this he will trip up sooner or later.
I have to tell you ODM.The man doesnt always fight using a moral code as his bible but he is a winner.
I despised his taking of Berbatov. To me its outrageous to have contact with players who are under contract and should be dealt wiith harshly by the FA,FIFA etc .But they dont.
This is the problem.
Ferguson will look for any edge and he has used it to help make United who they are. They are playing above their heads but this problem is a more universal problem that the leagues should sort out and not let the Fergusons play the grey areas.
Who cares its just plain funny getting up blue nose;s bugle, well done Dan and AVB this is a show of our moving forwards, Zeki and Holtby could be stars of the future, now wouldnt that be nice

Sir Alex is just running off at the mouth, its a good motivational ploy, the us against the rest stuff! Trouble is he has no consistancy in his compliants. Soon to be ex Real manager must be rubbing his hands with glee, waiting for Sir Alex to be carted off in the yellow wagon with square wheels!!
blazing saddles?picture.alex old age is a bitch,same as when your young,shit green and someone changing your arse,,you get old and the same shit happens .spurs 4 coventry 0.just what parker needs a good run out,coys
Brighton are holding the Ba Ba less sheep
not surprising……and Newcastle have 2 Amebas,an Abeid,an Amalfitano and an Anita playing for them today
Ignore Old Baconface – he’s an anachronism. Just laugh & point and he’ll get fed up & start whining on about referees and ‘Fergie time’ again…
Hove 1-0
Happy birthday BC
Mr Ferguson’s comments regarding NUFC as a “wee club in the NE” were disgraceful and made me feel sick. His “beef” was with Alan Pardew, but he chose to insult the identity of a football club. The Fryers comments are a symptom of his “Godfather to the Premier League” complex. There was begrudging respect for his “do anything” to give advantage to his team, as a mark of good management. But I don’t think he is a great man. And I am not alone.
Fans make comments like that all the time. Fergie is a fan of Man Utd. Whats the problem? Too many people just love being outraged. Its outrageous!
Just for the Craic i would put Fryers on the bench at WHL on the 19th when his mob come calling. Teach the subs to dance Gangham style as they warm up and keep hinting Zeki is about to come on.
Brighton 2 Newcastle nil
Tottenham team v Coventry: Friedel, Naughton, Caulker, Dawson, Assou-Ekotto, Parker, Huddlestone, Sigurdsson, Bale, Dempsey, Adebayor. #thfc
anyone found a stream to watch yet?
I have tried a lot of streams but only the dodgy ones that want a credit card number claim to have the match
give em my nuber, its maxed da faq
link???????????????
anyone got a link to bbc radio
london, not working for me
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/20872842
cheers kojac, perfect timing too, goal after 10 seconds!
why they make it like a maze i never know,just to hear
Nice to see you missed you a bit worried.
and you BC,intermittent web for a few months also lost my paysite for watching games,very annoying
where is noname i need another reliable site
I think you’re out of luck for this game.
benny says lol
happy new year everybody,we have had a blinding festive season,hope it keeps going today
we’d be mad not to reinforce with a couple of quality signings,mad i tell you,come levy back the boas
COYS
well done dumper he has certainly ridden the stick we were giving him
The nickname is “deuce”, i.e. two, coincidentally the number of goals he’s scored or set up so far today.
deuce? dump/ taking a deuce? yankspeak i believe
I thought it was retard for juice
Lennon has been awesome over the festive period too,i just needed o say that
Damiao’s agent – Vinicius Prates is an anagram of Vicious pirate cunt. Probably.
I can’t believe there are no streams of the match anywhere! Whats wrong wiv these foreigners?
Bale goal!
Looking good 2 0
Baler,good stuff
according to the gossips we are preparing the sale of bale to Royal Madrid right now,this intance and for a reasonable price too,have to love the hacks,Bale would cost Ronaldo money
That would be the rubbish American with a goal and assist today.
Sorry; two goals and an assist.
we gave him some stick alright,not sure how it has been while i was away but he has been injured for the last couple,right,
Yeah, he was finding a bit of form but was out with a groin injury for a couple games.
3 0
Dumper is coming into his own,he is useful just like we’d hope he would be at the start
dumpsey will get about 12-15 this year, i always thought he would , hes solid, strong and very motivated and commited, a great signing
What is your major malfunction Kojak?
2 goals and an assist and you’re still being a dick about him?
calm down ziege,he is dumpsey and dumper to some of us,he is doing better now,i thought i mentioned that a few times already
Man up, Kojak. Some of you have a pathetic need for a hate figure in the team and when your initial judgement of a player proves wrong, you continue with your childish derogatory names.
childish,he is the texan dumper to me,i thought he would be a good addition and be nutting in the headers,something we lacked but he had an awful start and took some horrible stick,i like dumpsey but he needed to shape up
I’m glad for Spurs that the Dumpster scored today. He looked utterly useless when he first signed, a waste of money too.
I’ve just been for a dump and I feel much better. So good dumping all around today.
i crapped once and defoe scored, remember?
I remember it well. It was the only tactic that worked that day!
Texas Pete sharp shooter.
Vinicius Prates is an anagram of vicious pirate cnut
This BBC commentary svery pro Coventry
Good half. Treat lower league opposition like lower league opposition.
And can I cover old ground by ranting about the inability to put games like this online? I’d happily pay a few bucks to watch the unsexy games on my laptop. Football is missing out on extra revenue here.
it must be rights of sky/itv for FA cup,i wish sky had just an internet service for games,i don’t understand that,i’ll pay for the internet sky football,just not sky tv
i wonder what games the FA website has,they use to show alive game,have to go and check
not sky but espn for the fa cup,i don’t get why ITV haven’t got a sunday game,they used to last year i thought
Yeah, I looked there earlier, but thanks for the tip. It’s just crazy that the powers that be can’t sort out internet viewing
Hey, I’d settle for being able to listen to the radio commentary. I used to be able to listen to BBC Radio London, but that’s blocked now too. Like you, I’d happily pay on a per match basis but not an option. Foolish.
does this radio link work,because there are 2 of them for some reason
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/20872842
“Cannot play media. Sorry, this media is not available in your territory.”
Sadly, no. But thanks for the link/effort.
i guess it must be for uk and ireland then,the internet bbc london which seems a bit pointless really,seeing as it has already been paid for by us
Hi.
Are there any streams for the match?!
i doubt it
Nope
We won’t be playing the barcodes in the next round that’s for sure.
BENT
I beg your pardon?
the FA.com doesn’t seem to be showing a game,i thought they did last year but can never be sure
didnt they do the occasional england game?
it must have been england and england ladies probably as they would have an FA cup game this weekend if they did do it
Benny seems to be having a good first game back, according to the spurs website commentary.
yes, and on the bbc the guy obviously hasnt read the script, he said hes defending very well, most commentators hate him it seems because of his hair?
The commentator sounds very much like Paul (The Voice of The Lane) Coyte to me, i’m not 100% sure but that’s what my ears are telling me.
I think the dislike is because Benny hasn’t read the script of how to be a premier league footballer. You know, admits he’s a footballer for the money, does his best cause it’s his job not out of fake badge kissing love for club or game. But then, he plays like he’s really having a good time, with some flair, with a smile! Plus, he lets the whole side down what with his oystercard, smartcar and actually getting that hair done in a Tottenham barbershop rather than a salon in some more appropriate area.
‘Course, all of the above is what makes BAE beyond legend. Delighted he’s back!
yes we’ll see about Benny,how AVB will take to him and if BAE needs games as some players take ages to get back to what they were,hopefully not BAE,good game to come back for,parker too first full 90min isn’t it
Yes, it will be interesting how the returning injured players are worked into first eleven. I’m more optomistic about this now than I would have been earlier in the season when AVB was so anxious to turf out the likes of Dawson and Hudd.
I’m happy to have BAE back, not only for him but it also allows Jan to play CB. This can only improve the defending.
Agree re Jan. Also thought the one time I say him paired with Dawson in the middle was very, very encouraging.
i think dawson was that the money was too good to turn down but i don’t think they will let him go now,the press say livermore is for sale and i could see thudd being sold if stoke or someone esle want him which they probably will
Guaranteed no top top club will be interested in Tugboat Tommy. Mid table. At best.
Bale outstanding
With benny back in the side, we will be sooooo much better, he starts so many attacks, very cleaver player, ive been a huge fan for years, plus super jan can play in the middle
if benny stays fit and ready to play,this Kyle will battle the other Kyle,should be good for our RB options
Hope you boys will give Deuce a little credit, even if it is Coventry. 2 goals and an assist. Decent in any competition.
i think the Texan is winning the battle,he is an intelligent player good to have him on board
:Roses-are-red:
I refuse to call him Deuce.
job well done,how can we complain at the moment
if i was levy i’d buy a couple of quality players if it were possible and kick on now to try and keep the pressure on the others,why wait
even people like baler,super jan,sandy and dembele practically have a mini break

When’s the 4th Round Draw gonna be made? (I want Macclesfield at home).
Hello?……Testing, Testing, 1 2 3…….Is there anybody there?……..
Suppose your all watching the BNP v Manure match on ITV………
Your gonna snap at me I’m sure,but I’m a BNP man for the next hour or so
Me too. Then i want the f*ckers (or Macclesfield) in the next round and give them the mother of all hidings.
it would be on the tele then,just like the macarels were today how weired
Perhaps Dempsey is going to prove to those of us that thought he was useless, that he is in fact a decent player. Maybe he is on something of a ‘comeback’ trail. It’s possible that he has been inspired by our very own ‘comeback kid’ Razspur, who not 6mths after being banished from the blog after a very public spat with said blogs owner, has risen once again to top billing. As any poet will no doubt attest it is no mean feat getting work recognised by ones peers and then published to great acclaim. Razpur has done it.
He is the former pro footballer come good- He is the cream that rose to the top- He is the comeback King- And he is the poet the came in from the cold.
We love you Steve.
Very sincere,sob sob

Jack the Ripper 2
Terry Christian 1
C’mon Jack (for the next half hour only).
it looks like the bennie failed drug test was just tosh, i know he looks like hes blazin it up, but hes too professional
I wonder if Dempsey scoring 2 goals in one match and our opposition being a league one midtable club are in any way related?
I think we should be told.
I see where your going with this.
So on this basis Adebayor must be really really shit ?
Looks like all the Goons who said Adebayor would stop playing once he signed a contract could have a point.
He looked hopeless against a 1st Division side
Were you watching at the game?
Well I was there and facing the pitch
That’s good enough for me. Only wondered cos I saw nothing and wondered if you were the only man with a hooky stream today.
QPR match now re-scheduled for Sat 12th @ 12:45 live on Sky.
