I think thats fair confidence Danny, if we get a result, it'll probably rely on a bit of luck.

 

We do our fair share of shooting ourselves in the foot.

 

I am just hoping we don't experience a Gomes flap resulting in a goal. Stevie and Tom will be intolerable.

 

The game has that air of unpredictability about it.

I thought he was faking it?

 

good morning daniel, how are you on this fine day ?

 

Fine thank you Tommo. You?

 

yeah good thanks. looking forward to sunday ?

 

Of course, always look forward to football. Shame the match can sometimes ruin a good drinking day.

 

Confident but not overly.

 

yeah silly early ko.

 

where i live is an hour from newcastle so leaving mine at 3am :o

 

Good levels of commitment mate. Shame some of the more southern based fans couldn't show the same.

 

Will you be down in time to sample some of the delights of the Tottenham High road?

 

yeah i hope to be down about 11ish with a bit of luck.

whats your plans ?

 

He's going clubbing at The Egg with me from 8am, necking a few bennies then up to chick-king for lunch.

Hamilton Hall (Liverpool Street) from 10am, then down to the ground possibly via the Brickies (Bricklayers Arms) if I have time.

Danny,

 

Will Defoe play or still inj?

 

Fit, Banking on Keane and Pav to start and Defoe to appear from the bench.

 

just out of interest, do you rate pavlyuchenko ?

Not expected anything from this game for a while. I dont think Martins and Owen are a great partnership anyway (as two up front), but I did like them in a three up front as mentioned earlier. Cant see Viduka starting, so Id imagine it will be Owen & Carroll up front, Viduka possibly coming on later in the game for one of those.

 

Read something recently saying Martins has been carrying an injury for a while.

 

I think 2-1 to Spurs is a fair shout.

Not massively, his pace is the main concern. He has a good first touch and a fierce shot but he isnt premiership paced.

 

I hope it is fatigue from playing 2 seasons back to back and getting used to the mental pace. Who knows. One more season.

prawn sandwich seats for me at this match.

 

i can't really justify it but it's free. i'm gonna miss being in the toon though :o

 

I was in Spurs away end on last year. Nearly pissed myself trying to keep the excitement in.

If Saylor is fit i'd go (4-4-2)

 

 

--------------- Harps

 

---Saylor-Edgar-Bassong-Beye (to stop Lennon)

 

--- Gutierrez--Guthrie---Nolan (just!) - Duff

 

 

---------------Carroll-----Owen

 

Which would leave Taylor up against Modric. Enrique did alright against Lennon last game, is he injured?

 

Spurs Probable Line up:

 

--------------------Gomes--------

 

Corluka----The King---Woody---BAE

 

Lennon-----Jenas------Wilson--Modric

 

---------------Pav----Keane---------

As in Stoke away last Sat, I'd take a point right now. However, this is NUFC and when something just seems really unrealistic it tends to happen i.e. turning defeat into victory.

 

Unfortunately Spurs have to beat us eventually, and it would be typical for it to be now. :o

Yeah, after last year's shock victory I guess most of us expect nothing other than defeat this time.

this season is like Lost.

 

It seems to have been going on forever, I can't quite understand all the goings on and I'll really just be happy when it's all over.

It's been totally shit as well :o

It seems to be that ever since Spurs bought Palacios, they have stepped up a gear.

 

I can't really see us getting anything from this one but I live in hope and we do have a habit of picking up results against them.

 

Would probably go with.

 

-----------------------------------Harper

 

------------S Taylor (if fit)------Edgar-------- Bassong

 

-----Beye--------------------------------------------Enrique (if fit)

 

------------------------Butt--------------Guthrie

 

---------------------------------Jonas

 

------------------------Carroll------------Owen

 

I think Edgar probably deserevs to still be in there after last week. I think Nolan, Ameobi and R Taylor deserve to be dropped.
