OTF 7492 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Mind when Warnock called El Hadji Diouf a sewer rat? Well he signed him for Leeds on Saturday. Disappointed in Warnock tbh, have some conviction in your views man. Assume this is in the wrong thread - but anyway. Here's hoping he signed him to make him sit on the bench and be spat upon by opposing supporters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 4839 Posted August 13, 2012 Author Share Posted August 13, 2012 5 more sleeps and it's back! What a fucking awesome day this is going to be. Going to be so drunk i'll be lucky to make it home. Looking forward to all the fucked up missed posts in the match threads from the regular drunken match goers. Happy Days!

Christmas Tree 4839 Posted August 13, 2012 Author Share Posted August 13, 2012 Ben Arfa out, Coloccini, Cabaye and Tiote all carrying injuries and possibly out. Fuckity fuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTF 7492 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Worrying to have this many injuries already. Hopefully there's some gamesmanship amongst them with Pardew keeping AVB guessing who they'll be lining up against. Of those Colo out would be the biggest cause for concern.

David Kelly 1260 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Cabaye and HBA would be a massive miss too. We've looked more than a little bit short of attacking sparkle without them in preseason! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 4839 Posted August 13, 2012 Author Share Posted August 13, 2012 Marveaux has got to start somewhere if those two are definitely out. Really expecting massive things from him this year. New darling of St James. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McFaul 35 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 We'll be alright, am sure all bar Ben Arfa will start. As long they do, we win the game its that simple. This week will be the start of Tottenham's decline in my view, I hope so because without any doubt they are our main rival in this league. We are both far away from Everton and Villa in terms of squad, size, finance, potential and stature, so anything less than 7th for both will be disappointing, we'll see though. I'm sticking with 2-0 to the toon. Would love Jenas to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonpack 9973 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I've got a right downer on football, partly cos of the Olympics. Footballers are all knobs and the game is massively overhyped. It's dominated by money factors and just gets less appealing every season. The most prestigious club tournament is rigged in favour of the big clubs, and the more you look at FFP the more it looks like a way of freezing everyone else out of the biggest action. I'd say I fell 70% out of love with football a few years ago, and have racked up a few extra percentage points this summer. So aye, there you go. Cheer up, me.

StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Tbf I think the injuries mentioned will be Pardew trying to keep them out of the midweek friendlies so theyre fit for Saturday. At least 3 of them will start IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 17664 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Spurs have got loads of problems too....dos Santos, having missed pre-season by playing at the Olympics, is off with Brazil this week too Looks like Livermore and Jenas in the centre of the park for them, and only Defoe up front....Defoe who scored a cracker at SJP last season like, but still...cant see their bench being anything to be scared of...

StellarStripes 0 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 (edited) Think we will see: Krul, Raylor, Saylor, Colo, Santon, Obertan, Cabaye, Anita*, Jonas, Ba, Cisse. *If he signs. If not then Probably Gosling although i'd like to see Bigi given a go in the Tiote role. Personally if Tiote and Ben Arfa arent fit enough then I'd rather see Marveaux start on the left and move Jonas to the right. Amalfitano, Obertan and Shola on with 20mins to go. 2-1 Cabaye and Ba Edited August 14, 2012 by StellarStripes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigWalrus 0 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I think we'll be beaten 2-0. We'll stutter and falter and lose our first two games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfy 12 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 We can beat any team on our day and Tottenham don;t hold fear for us at all, especially at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StellarStripes 0 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Looks like Coloccini will be fit and will start on Saturday. Thats a relief, i wouldnt want us to start the new season at home to another top 4 challenger without him. It will be good to see how him and Steven Taylor work together again after they were part of the team that seen us have the best defensive record in the country. My question is who is going to play RB and LB?. Ryan Taylor and Santon seem to have had more minutes than Simpson. I wouldnt be suprised if we see Santon at RB and Raylor at LB. Cabaye and Ben Arfa are still doubts but i think Pardew is playing them down to maybe keep Spurs guessing on who will start. I think Cabaye will make it, Ben Arfa on the bench. Tiote to missout and Anita to step in. Jonas to stay in the team and start wide left. Obertan to start and start wide right in a four four two. Cisse trained well and will start where as there was no news on the fitness of Ba. Shola could start. Krul, Santon, S.Taylor, Coloccini ©, R.Taylor, Obertan, Cabaye, Anita, Jonas, Shola and Cisse. A bench of: Harper, Simpson, Williamson, Gosling, Marveaux, Ben Arfa and Ba. Ba on for Shola, Ben Arfa on for Obertan and Marveaux on for Jonas. 2-1 Cabaye and Ba.
