49.2k attendance. Decent.  Well played, you were the better team in the second half. No arguments there. A win is a win and in our current form I will take it.  The difference between y

It's Hotspur 😉  We played well yesterday and should have had a point. They should have been down to 10 men but for some 'Liverpool' refereeing. Top tip.  There are two bars in the away

Ridiculous comments from those criticising Liddle, he's a young kid making a debut away to a Premier league team. Not only that our shape was all over the place in the first half which left him and Wi

Saville changed the game when he came on I thought. So happy for him, had a hard time while he’s been here. But he’s been one of our better performers of late. He’s start at Fulham for me. 
 

Spence was our MOTM I thought.

Wing, Mejias and Johnson the poorest

I really wouldn't bother putting yourself through it.  Ignorance is bliss 👍

Haha. How did you know I'd pressed the green button just before the news came on so I could watch the first half? 

Wtf? Mejias didn't even move!

Well if we had played our best XI we might have had a chance. We also gave them far too much respect in the first half.

 

I think we can come out of that knowing we have some decent players, we are playing well and can cause any team problems. We still need a CB mind.

Other positives:

- Spence was superb

- Nmecha looks a handful and has got 90mins under his belt

- Tav, Coulson, Saville, Roberts, Pears all rested for Friday

- Friend, Ayala, Dijksteel, Shotton, Britt to come back

Ah well.

This isn't meant as criticism of Woodgate, although it's impossible for it not to be, but we are a poor side when we sit back against any team.  We've seen it often enough this season.  We're better when we're putting pressure on without the ball and having a go when we do have it.

We conceded after less than 2 minutes, I'm not sure how much of that half was down to deliberately sitting back.

I heard this too. I saw him approach the same spot for a corner after his goal and he nodded and smiled at someone in the crowd. Definitely someone from the crowd shouting it.

Presumably what followed in the first half was though as we noticeably were more positive as the second half wore on.

I think the Spurs fans were taunting him; after all he shares a surname with a pretty infamous Jimmy.

Nmecha went off for Gestede?

I always feel Gestede is playing for the opposition when he's in their box and just clearing the balls for them.

He may well be getting two pay packets..
