Well....here it is. The final home game at White Hart Lane. This is important.

Time to move on from the Friday result.

Time to positively support Spurs with every ounce of energy we have.

Time to remember that if we win we guarantee 2nd place playing against a top club with a top manager.

Time to reflect on the many memories Spurs have delivered within those hallowed walls.

Time to revel in being a Spurs fan through thick and thin. Loyalty. A rare commodity these days.

Time to smile and enjoy the moment. :35:

Must win game. Last ever game at the lane, we can' lose that.


Lol, have a word with the players RD, they don't care the way we do or they wouldn't keep losing to the useless spammers, they've got top3 now, they'll switch off, job done.
 
Well you get the feeling that everything is about to fall apart with us. If Boro win tonight, it might boost us but the atmosphere within our team on Friday was dreadful. I wouldn't want Poch's job at the moment. We need our fans to be the 12th, 13th, 14th men to remind our players that this club is the place to be.
 
I know United put out a make shift team v Ar$enal, but they held them pretty good for the 1st half and parked a bus as well as created a few chances themselves. Expect the same against us and we know what happens in that case! Let's hope Poch and the lads will make amends and ensure 1st ever unbeaten run at the Lane (that was). COYS!
 
If Man Utd didn't have Europa League on Thursday this was nailed on for a draw, especially with our season over. I think we may nick it now but to be honest I'm done with the season and I guess a lot of the players will have the same attitude, unfortunately.
 
Why didn't the players turn up against a shite spammer team in a must win game?

Our players still lack the winning mentality. It may sound harsh but we have again not won a trophy so it is true.
 
After last Friday, if the players don't care why should I. This is a young team in the main and it needs a couple of solid, experienced British pros in MF to kick the backsides of Alli, Kane Eriksen etc when they are watching the game go by. Watched a bit of a Chelsea tonight and the tempo they started at they were always going to rip Boro to pieces. I still think the Walker spat has affected the team and he should be packed off to train with the juniors. Regarding recruitment it seems we scout every overseas league in the world but never look to the home countries. Our most successful team ever had 3 Scots, 1 Irishman and 1 Welshman in it and they were all key players. Just because their leagues may be weak doesn't mean there isn't talent there. As for the Utd game, probably a draw would be my guess.
 
I hope Fergie is at the Lane on Sunday. Whilst he nicked a few of our best players, he always had a soft spot for Spurs and had many complimentary words over the years.

As for the game itself, Utd have injuries and a fixture pile-up but are still a dangerous team. We need to be more dangerous though after the Hammers loss and be willing to take it out on Mourinho.

We won't win another game this season

Hate to be negative but I fear you're right, we certainly wont be winning all 3.

Roll on the summer, these last 3 games are going to be so :20: :20: :20: :20: Well Sunday will be good because of the obvious but I have little interest in the actual games.
 
There are some depressives here..

We've had a great season and we've made huge progress; no question we have more improvement to make.

Manure will try and do to us what West Ham did and I'd be delighted to see Poch try a different approach to unlock the door - especially as the longer the game goes on without a goal, the more nervy we'll become.

I expect every single player to want to play out on a high at WHL and prove that our mental resilience has improved since our damp squib run in last season.

We should win, but if we don't, I expect we'll batter them for 9o+ mins and chuck the kitchen sink at them..
 
I agree with people that Man Utd will turn up and park a bus. The pressure is truly on Mourinho to get into the CL and he seems to be putting all his eggs in the Europa basket. As long as we don't start Walker and we play a back 3 with Dembele back in the team I think we'll go back to looking more like a complete unit.

The occasion is key here. We have NOT lost a game at The Lane this season and this game is all that stands between us and the perfect send off for our great home. The crowd will be just as noisy as it was for the NLD and the expect the event will be truly grand as well. Poch will be pumping them up for this too because he understands our fans and not let last Friday be the end of this season.

The league seasons been decent, however the cups/Europe have been woeful and an area we need massive improvement if we want to win things, as realistically we haven't come close this season.

Which I hope will come with a better squad
 
Europe has been our only downfall this season but with experience comes great reward.

I wouldn't look too much into the defeat at Spam. They performed a smash & grab on their own turf, we were unfortunate to lose.
