Half way there. I didn't realise there was so much riding on this game!

Whichever way you look at it, Spurs have had a poor season so I am hoping we can pile the agony on a bit more by sneaking a win. COYS!!!

Have you forgotten the first half humiliation at St Marys?

[Matty's Caddy]

Any decent pubs to frequent before the game?

I'm probably alone in this but I've just got this really strong feeling we're gonna win today. I haven't felt like we're going to win any game this season, but I've got a funny feeling about this one.

Is sure is a ‘funny’ feeling 🤣 

 

That said, I hope you’re right.

I'm past caring about the result, but I do hope we find a way to spawn ourselves into the lead, just to sit back and watch the absolute eye-popping meltdown as their fans turn on the manager. Got to get some entertainment somehow. 

[Whitey Grandad]

it will be good to get the confirmation out of the way.

I used to have a cartoon which said “I feel so much better now that I’ve given up hope”

It'd also be good to grab a win and get over the 12 point barrier. Either way there'll be a feeling of satisfaction at the end of the day. 😇

It'll be brutal for Ange. He's going to get some abuse today.

Is the Antwerp Arms still there?

[CB Fry]

Keep it nice and tight and then sling on Ross Stewart on 80 mins for the winner.

We will walk this.

Ross Stewart to come on and get injured late on then.

You underestimate him, he could easily get injured on the bench.

[Midfield_General]

Bella-Kotchap and Stephens on the bench, with Aribo starting at centre back 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍
 

Onuachu our best player against Palace, actually scores a goal, fit enough to be on the bench but no, let’s start Archer

What can you say, incredible.

It might not be 3 centre backs. Might be 433 with Aribo in midfield.

Onuachu went off injured vs Palace and missed training in the build up to the game today.

[Willo of Whiteley]

It’s actually quite funny how we’ve played defensive for so long with no success, struggling to score, struggling to get at teams; and suddenly on the day where we have relegation all but confirmed he plays an additional attacking player.

🤣🤣🤣

He played 4 atb away to Liverpool so I'd hazard a guess it's the same here. Let's hope so anyway. 

[Baird of the land]

You’d hope its 451. Hopefully onachu is fit enough for last 30 minutes.

[adrian lord]

Oh dear, I fear a drubbing. 

[aintforever]

Relegated before Easter by the shittest Spurs team in living memory, wearing pink.  

[sandwichsaint]

Dibling in the shop window. Will he step up today?

[davefizzy14]

COYR 😊 looks like a back four, liking that. Annoying that Onuachu picked up a knock the other night but hopefully he can come on in the second half and grab a couple 😊

I hope you’re right. BBC is showing the line-up as 3 atb with Aribo as one of them. But let’s see.

We haven’t seen Dibling tried at centre back yet. With IJ in charge I wouldn’t bother trying to guess what random way he chooses to set them up - just sit back and await the surprise of finding out Archer is a forward sweeper and Sully an enforcer.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Any good streams please - looks like my IPTV app is knackered.

[saintant]

Strong attacking Spurs line-up. Will be tough for our weak defence.

My word - Stewart on the bench! 😳

It's like Dellhurst park, you can only hear our anthem before the game 😱😱😱

God our pink kit is truly horrific isn't it.

[SouSaint]

3 mins in and there's already a fair few players standing around ball watching. Won't be long until Spurs score. 

[SNSUN]

We won't, I stress that now, but it would be funny to beat Spuds today. I can't believe how low down they are in the Prem table this season.

[Edmonton Saint]

Grim opening 10 minutes, have barely got past the halfway line. 

Edited 6 April, 2025 by Edmonton Saint

[obelisk]

Saints looking very much like relegation material so far.

[Saint NL]

We'll touch the ball soon, I can feel it

[Andy Hill]

Yikes - we are so poor. Not even Championship standard with this lot.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Matter of time before Spurs take the lead - we’re seeing little of the ball and they’re looking dangerous every break.

[Edmonton Saint]

lol.

[adrian lord]

Sounds like our team are merely going through the motions towards relegation doom. 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Reaction from us having a chance.

Meh!

[SouSaint]

There it is. These players are a bunch of lazy cunts. 

[OttawaSaint]

Fucking hell.

Porro handballed that.

[Saint Fan CaM]

And there it is. We piss around - they hit fast on the break.

Commentators sound ecstatic.

[Saint NL]

All over.

[obelisk]

Saints hit the post. Spurs send a long ball up the other end and score.
