hallicks Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 How are you feeling about El Bacónico tomorrow, @SuperBacon? Obviously it's league cup so no-one cares but it must be a bit since the last competitve Spurs-Brentford game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously it's league cup so no-one cares but it must be a bit since the last competitve Spurs-Brentford game. Really, really looking forward to it (On my birthday too )! It's been 20 years since the last time they met, however that was during my 'Lost smile years' so I don't remember too much about it to be honest, and Spurs had an absolute dogshit team at that time. Two years prior produced a couple of crackers, with Spurs on their way to League Cup victory (Nielsen and Savage bogey final) and about 12000 was in a rocking Griffin Park that night, and I was sat with my Grandad in the Braemer Road stand, and IIRC Brentford went ahead twice in the first leg and scored within a minute in the second! Decent Brentford squad that year as well as they went up, but Spurs name was on the cup. The pinnacle though was in 1992 as I got to be ball boy for the 2nd leg. Brentford had just been promoted (went straight back down), so spirits were high and still had a few from the glorious season before (Blissett, Smilie, Gayle) and Brentford were well in the tie until the quality took over. It's weird, the only players I can remember giving the ball to was Edinburgh and UKFF favourite Vinny Samways. I wanted to throw the ball to Teddy!!! As for this time, it's a tough one to call. Brentford are absolutely flying, and in Ivan Toney have someone who can trouble Spurs slow CBs. Flanked by Canos/Dasilva and Mbuemo, they can REALLY hurt Spurs, and they'll come out and press and play. They don't know how to sit back, and will take the game to Spurs... ...Which leads to their own problems. Similar to Leeds at the weekend, if Spurs are on it and can punish unforced errors, it's game over. In Kane and Son, and the spaces left, they should have enough to see Brentford off, but saying that, the Bees have done well to come back from losing positions this season. Should be a really decent game. I'll be cracking out the half and half scarf, and as it is the League Cup and at such a late stage, I'd love to see Brentford make a major final. I don't think trophies are the be all and end all in football (LOL YOU WOULD SAY THAT SPUD!!!!), so for me, the final will mean more to Brentford as it's more likely Spurs will be in a position to get there again sooner rather than later (but in more likelihood the final will be without fans, which is gutting). If it was the FA Cup, it might be different, and I understand Spurs NEED to win something (for the players rather than the fans) but that's my feeling on it, and if that makes me less of a Spurs fan, then so be it. I reckon 1-1 after full time, Spurs in extra time. It'd be very Spursy to blow a semi final after drawing the lowest ranked side in the competition (especially after playing only two games to get there), but at the same time Brentford are the most Spursy team in the Championship now Leeds have gone up (the ending to last season being the epitome of it-Beesy?) so it'd be very fitting for them to blow this opportunity too. TL:DR I am looking forward to it yes. COYS and COYB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members air_raid Posted January 13, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted January 13, 2021 It’s crossed my bough today that during a Q&A on Twitter, Mesut Özil has declared that he’d rather retire than play for Tottenham. I must admit, this came as quite a surprise to me. I assumed he retired years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members air_raid Posted January 14, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted January 14, 2021 I can’t for the life of me understand how often a half feels like “matter of time until the next one” translates into a second half of “nah, one will do.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted January 14, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted January 14, 2021 It's the Mourinho way. This is the season he's supposed to win a trophy, isn't it? Then next season he pisses off in November with his goodbye payoff while leaving Tottenham in 16th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted January 15, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted January 15, 2021 With credit to @Gay as FOOK from the wrestling Twitter thread. I thought that this belongs here as well. I'm guessing that the music guy at Arsenal is secretly a Spurs fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lanky316 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 One of the highlights about the brief arrival of fans was that they at least got into the Emirates to boo them off once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
