    The Y word

    Spurs are known as the Y word as they were from a largely Jewish area of London. Other London clubs used the term in chants so Spurs adopted it, in a similar way to how the odd Saints fan is referring to themselves (embarassingly) as a "scummer". If Spurs had been in a predominantly Asian or black area this wouldn't be a problem because those terms are known to be offensive. Sadly peoples ignorance on the offensive Y word term is forcing Jewish fans of London clubs to sit through hissing when spurs come onto the pitch mimicking the sound of the gas chambers, and regular songs about Auscwitz coming from various sets of supporters.

  2. Rubbish. There is no guarantee that if you auction an item again it will reach the same amount of money. If you put an auction up with a buy it now price then you have to abide by distance selling laws. Auctions are a different kettle of fish. Sent from my Lumia 800 using Board Express
  3. Your are perfectly within your rights not to refund them if the item clearly said it was collection only. Bidding on an item is a binding contract. Its their problem they can't collect nit yours. Sent from my Lumia 800 using Board Express

    ps4

    Be careful with playstation plus. Apparently if your sub lapses for one day, you lose access to all games you've previously downloaded. Then you can only get whatever free games are on offer when you resubscribe. Sent from my Lumia 800 using Board Express

  6. Sinclair's not good enough for us as his Premiership Season for Swansea wasn't brilliant. he performed well in the Championship for them but hasn't repeated it.
  7. Go on the official site and see what position they have J-Rod down as.... You may find its 'Striker'. We had 2 strikers on the pitch most of last season, and we'll continue to this season. Its not inconceivable that we may start with three strikers on the field on Saturday. Sent from my Lumia 800 using Board Express
  8. So, the Express reporter was listening to TalkSport earlier because he needed to fill column inches by printing deadline......
  9. I prefer this stat from Squawka http://squawka.com/news/2013/08/19/analysis-southampton-win-90-of-tackles-as-they-gain-opening-victory/2013081917851 "Victor Wanyama... was successful in 100% of tackles, clearances and take ons. He also completed 80% of passes and won two thirds of his headed duels."
  10. Equivalent to roughly what we'll receive for TV right s for just this year then...
  11. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1738942-pablo-osvaldo-to-southampton-roma-star-would-be-a-great-tactical-fit "Southampton fans will be conflicted at the news of Osvaldo's potential arrival. While it's certainly a step up in quality, it will jeopardise the playing time of one of Adam Lallana, Gaston Ramirez and Jay Rodriguez. With Lambert an immovable presence up front in the team, coupled with the fact Pochettino wouldn't be caught dead playing a 4-4-2, expect Osvaldo to play off one of the flanks in a Jay-Rod-esque role."
  12. Remember when Cortese wanted backing from Ms Liebherr for his ambitious plans back in May? looks like that backing stretched to £30 mil.
  13. From Football Italia "It is believed that Osvaldo was initially irritated in the dressing room after the match by Lamela ignoring his complaints about not passing to him and snapped, “I’m older than you and this is not River, answer as I speak.” The former River Plate youngster Lamela reportedly then responded, “Shut your mouth, you’re not Maradona.” At this point it is alleged that Osvaldo went for Lamela and gave him a slap - not a punch as has been originally suggested - before the pair pushed each other a few times prior to teammates intervening."
  14. He is Argentinian, Argentina play in blue
  15. or possibly Argentina Blue?
  16. Osvaldo's agent has obviously phoned up the Sun hoping for a last minute other option by trying to force Tottenham's hand.
  17. Thats the 'right back question' utterly resolved then. Excellent news
  18. His pace took him easily past the S04 defence on wednesday a number of times. Sent from my Lumia 800 using Board Express

  20. just read the Sky Sports match report for that one "Sunderland booked their place in the final of the Barclays Asia Trophy after they came from behind to beat Tottenham 3-1 in testing conditions....The first half was delayed by half an hour after a storm caused puddles of water to appear on the pitch, with the match also reduced to 40 minutes in each half. At times the game became something of a lottery, players on both sides struggling to keep their footing on a surface that cut up badly as the game progressed." from the way its described, it certainly sounds like it emulated the avarage premier league match well.
  21. This smells of the agent wanting a payday.
  22. Excellent article to google Translate http://esportcatalunya.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/palamos-cf-0-southampton-fc-8-els.html
  23. Surprised his successor wasn't sacked. They finished the season with 1 point from their last six games.
  24. Context: This time almost exactly a year ago Pochettino's Espanyol team went to Palamos and Scored 3....
