Billy Whitehurst

True, united by a huge, feck off, chip on their shoulder. Sad really, as I always want Scotland, Ireland and Wales to do well.

Have only seen him in one match but I thought Bassong looked good against Mallorca. Looked fast and composed and is still young. Could be a decent back-up.

Clutching the same straws myself. I'm treating the trips to Old Trafford and The Emirates as good match practice before we start our surge (ahem) up the table!

Park Guell is great for a good view of Barcelona.

I'd like to know too, they used to spout a spectacular amount of shite so it must have been something really special (needs) to get banned.

I'm not sure there's much left you haven't said before now so I think you're safe. Have we ever had a banning on here? I can name a few recent ones. Danny_B, Torres, Thompers, Triggy (for 2 weeks), RICO. Are Danny B and Torres banned? When did this happen? They were total mongs but at least they gave us something to talk about. I used to enjoy watching them having their lovers tiffs.

According to wikipedia, he has played 33 times in the last two seasons and scored once. Sounds like an ideal Alan Smith replacement to me.

I like it, far nicer than the purple 2nd kit. Then again, I used to love the old silver kit.

A total gent and a role model to all. Genuinely one of a kind, a huge character in football. Keep fighting Sir Bobby.

The amazing thing about all of this is that Danny is in his thirties. I had him down for a teenager.

I don't normally agree with banning people for most things, but he's becoming a fuckin nuisance and what the fuck he's doing here I don't know. I want him to stay, keep him on here, him and Torres give us all something to laugh at. He is just a harmless mong. In a way, we are all doing our bit for care in the community by responding to his posts.

Dont fella, Im happy and I have my health. What more can a man ask for? Decent patter?

Seems happy enough. That's some outfit he has got on. Can't help thinking that he bought the wrong size shirt though.

Why would we want him when we've got Poo-poo? Post of the day! For some reason, that really tickled me.

True, Green Street and the other one with Danny Dyer in it were laughable though. Anyone who is impressed with hooliganism after watching that dross, is a halfwit. I'm ashamed at myself for even watching them. I also confess to having once read a Dougie Brimson book (which was even worse than you might imagine). The hours I spent reading that, I'll never get back, that's the thing that depresses me the most.

Agreed, the one thing you used to be able to rely on, was him to put the effort in and at least unsettle the opposition. In the last two games his movement has been virtually non-existent. Maybe he realises that he isn't in KK's plans once everyone is fit, so he just can't be arsed any more.

Get rid of Smith. Whenever I see him, he looks like a lower league player out of his depth. £60k a week for a man who is as inept a midfielder as he is a striker, is frankly ridiculous. As for Duff, he has been pish for us the last two seasons. However, has also looked decent pre-season (I thought he did well when he came on as sub against Hertha Berlin and was one of our better players last night) and looks like he may have his pace back, so I'd persevere with him.

He couldn't trap a bag of cement. When he plays up-front, he looks like a midfielder playing up-front. When he plays in midfield, he looks like a striker playing in midfield. This leads me to conclude that he is, in fact, just utterly gash.

Fabregas, Gerrard and Torres for me. Messi outside the PL.

As far as I'm concerned he can do what he likes as long as it stops him topping himself. Agreed, whether he is a hindrance or not (he may even be a benefit) to the club, I'd like to see us do something for him as he was a fantastic player and, in my opinion, the game owes him something. As far as I'm concerned, there is still room for sentiment in football, and we should be making a special case for Gazza. He is still the best English player I have ever seen in my lifetime.

I think Chimbonda, Diouf and Malbranque are all good signings for them. Can't see them struggling too much next season.

The problem is, most of you won't have a grounding in business, so you won't know what an executive director is, however rest assured I'm right. Fuck off. What do you do for a living like? I reckon Danny's been on one of them Learn Direct courses. That or GNVQ Business Studies. Don't you have to have sat your GCSE's before you do GNVQ?

No offence Billy but you think Arsenal fans are knowledgeable? Most don't know football even existed prior to 2000. Maybe it just because they agree blindly with the tripe you lot feed them on a daily basis. Where as we pull you up on what your peddling. The self proclaimed "best fans in the world". Toot toot, sponge fingers, jester hats and airhorns all round. As I said in my original post, I can only talk about the fans of those teams that I know, I am not making a generalisation, I am just relating my personal experiences based on people I have met. My Arsenal supporting mates are, by and large, knowledgeable and have pretty realistic expectations. The Spurs fans I know are neither of the two. I just put the chip on their shoulder down to Spurs being in the shadow of bigger rivals, much in the same way Sunderland, Everton and Birmingham City fans behave. The way you are is understandable. Add in the fact that you have a snidey little ground just off the Severn Sisters Road (the only place in the world where fried chicken shops outnumber people), and my understanding of why you are like you are turns to pity. Sponge fingers and air horns? What on earth are you prattling about man?

There's no need for the anti-semitic chat like. This guy provides us with more than enough material than to have to resort to that.

It is rare that I post on here but, as a geordie, having lived in London for the past 9 years, can I just say that this Fanny B bloke typifies the majority of Spurs fans I have encountered down here. When it comes to London teams (and I can only speak of people I know), the best fans are Arsenal ones as they are the most realistic and generally fairly knowledgeable, West Ham fans are ok as they are genuine football fans, Chelsea fans are by and large ok, Charlton and Fulham fans are inoffensive and generally apologetic about how pish thier teams are. The Spurs fans I know, while generally nice blokes (ok, so that's where the comparison with Fanny B breaks down), when it comes to Spurs, become deluded huge chip on shoulder f*ckwits. Whoever called them cockney mackems had it spot on. Living in the shadow of Arsenal and Chelsea really grates with them as they know that their rivals will always be better than them, and this turns them into foaming at the mouth, insecure imbeciles, like Fanny B. Other people may have other views, but I can only speak of the people I know down here who support these clubs. Phew, I'm pleased I go that off my chest! For the record, being realistic, I believe that Spurs are in better shape than us at the moment (even if they do guarantee us six points a season). That said, I'd far rather be a Toon fan than a Spurs fan.
