I don't think there was ever an elephant in the room. A few getting overly excited of our early season form on a bit of a pipe dream. As it does every year, the cream will rise to the top, we will end up mid table, 10th to 12th.

Respect the point. It's a measure of how well we've done this season that we are disappointed not to have taken all 3. But it's a bit of a crazy season, if you think you feel bad now how do you think the city fans felt last night when they could only manage a draw against WBA. All told I'm over the moon at our form this season.

We're top....

Quietly building a good reputation for himself at Spurs. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55300917

BBC had him down as man of the match today.

Gifted a point by yet another dodgy penalty.

Just been discussed on TalkSport that both Danny and Ryan are close to signing new deals. Great news.

Beware the wounded animal, eventually they will win. That said, we had 6 points off them last season, they've struggled for goals this season, no reason why we shouldn't go into this one with confidence. 3 nil home win.

Looks like we could be playing out last season in reverse. Lots of huffing and puffing but absolutely no threat.

Footballers have been put in an impossible position. Yes, football is played in front of the masses, and therefore can broadcast 'the message' quickly. But ultimately racism is a problem of society not football. Why do we not see the cast of Eastenders and Coronation Street taking the knee before every episode, why not the news presenters, the panel on Question Time, millions are watching. Why has it been left to football to shoulder the responsibility of a society wide problem?

Jesus christ, how bloody embarrassing. Is there nowhere he can go for help, because he seriously needs it. As one of the countries senior citizens I really do think its time to close down most SM platforms. What a bloody mess.

Ditto. Always hoped we would get a cup tie at their place, we finally get them, at our gaff and we can't go anyway. Bloody typical.

I think the only bed wetter is yourself mate. Most on here agree that we got beat by a team that played better than us and have much better resources available to their manager. Go change your own sheets.

Got what we deserved, even at 2 nil they were miles better than us. When you look at the riches they have though we shouldn't be beating teams like them. What on earth does Long contribute these days? Will be interesting to see where we go from here.

Absolutely brilliant player. Gone far too soon. Off to shake hands with the guy that put that one past Shilton. RIP.

Will be good to see Theo v Luke. They have the better players, but who is the better team? That said I'm going for a draw.

Seriously, that's about the crux of it really. Just watched Palace desperately seeking a goal at Burnley and so they turned to their prolific goal scoring sub, Christian Benteke.....!

In other news - we are actually on one point better off than we were after these fixtures last season - still a lot of work to do methinks. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/54984207

Bloody awful - you can't make out the tree, it just looks like a green blotch across the badge. As others have said, ours is iconic, not broken, doesn't need fixing - leave well alone. Nuff said...!

Indeed, and now the pundits are waxing lyrical over a 2 nil loss and how good Jack Grealish was. Yeah he had some good touches here and there but ultimately he never hurt them at all. We are not close to the level of Belgium, and Jack Grealish is not going to make one iota of difference to that.

22/28 - I think I'm propping up the leaderboard with that score...!!

Evidently I missed something on this thread....!!!

Garth Crooks.... lol

Hattrick now...
