spuds officially ask for a replay.


Recommended Posts

don't think so kaiser, like to think i can take losing.

 

can we replay the games earlier in the season where we dropped points when we had EIGHT defenders injured?

 

desperate and pathetic action i reckon.

Spurs should have refused to play the game.If that meant forfieting the points and fourth spot,so be it. It would have put the premier league under much greater pressure to replay the game.

 

Failing that, Spurs should have put out a team of complete reserves,took a spanking,and shamed the Premier league.Again putting much more perssure on the Premier league to replay it.

 

I can't see the league admitting they made a complete <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/bootyshake.gif" alt="" /> of themselves and the integrity of Football,but Spurs should gain to seek compensation for the loss of the £10 million in revenue.

meant alot to the team having had so many injuries throughout the year urch, add the fact that it was an emotional day all round due to the last game at highbury etc.

 

i don't really see how you can compare the 2.

I am embarassed, if we did get a replay which we shouldnt, could you imagine it if we lost!

 

It's hard enough seeing all the Arsenal shirts in Harlow Town centre, I can not handle anymore humiliation.

 

Let it be known that I do not agree with this action and if and most likely when it backfires I do not want to be ridiculed further.

Well both sides reacted like they have down to dissapointment, Thierry Henry's after match interview about Tottenham showed that he isn't the real Gent of the premiership <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

 

Ignore me i just hate Arsenal <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

right. legally, spurs have bugger all chance.

 

1) arsenal at times this season had 9 players out - and never asked for a match to be postponed

2) arsenal were forced to play 3 games in 6 days - never complained

3) who is to say that a club doesn't deliberately arrange the food poisoning because of injuries or to gain an advantage by playing later?

 

regardless of any support from other clubs, spuds knew the rules before the season started. boro had points deducted and were relegated because of it.

By the Premier league Chairman,on Saturday? I AGREE.

 

Did the fact that he was at Highbury, sipping champaign ,surrounded by 40,000 Gooners,influence his dicision to force Spurs to play the game.Maybe he was getting a footrub of David Dein at the time, and couldn't see what the fuss was about.He should have been straight down to the Spurs hotel the moment he heard of trouble.Not sucking on a prawn sandwich and enjoying the celebrations.

 

So the vast majority of the football league chairman agreed that the game should have been delayed to a later date.

 

I hope Spurs' case gets stronger as the week unfolds.Wouldn't it be great,if Arsenal wern't certain during the Champoins league final,whether they had to beat Barca or not, in order to be playing in the champions league next season. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Having losts of players injured, and having the whole first team go down hours before a game with food poisoning,is two totally different matters.Spurs spent most of the 90's with half of their team injured.So what. This is completely different.

To the Upminster 'massive'.Calm the language and the innane accusations down ,lads.Show a bit of class, Hey?

 

Little tip.The ones getting aggressive and throwing wild accusations around,normally tend the ones losing the arguement.Remember that, and you won't go far wrong.
