Actually Matt,

I hadn’t read the ticket news, so thanks for letting me know. That’s a bit cheeky with the letter thing. They’re obviously hoping that people just wont get the arse to write one but what the hell, I’m sure most ticket holders would want to go to the next round anyway.

As for Southend, I’m right with you there. The last one was one of the dullest match ups I’ve seen all season, no disrespect to the Shrimpers.

Feeling a little crusty this morning and I’m not much looking forward to the trek to the Lane and back. I do hope it’s an entertaining game and as you say, it’ll be nice to see some of the old faces in action again.

The Bagel.

Yeah, as you’ve probably seen by now, they’re making the Feyenoord tickets valid for the next round instead.

Or you can send them for a refund, if you send a letter too. Letter? Write? That age disappeared a long time ago…

I guess they’ll be keeping my cash for the next round then after all.

And, sorry I’m moaning again, today’s performance had better be a damn sight better than last Southend match. Grrr.

Hopefully JJ will play a bit.

COYS!

Yeah, about that fifty quid. I wonder if they’ll try to give it back in Spurs Store vouchers or credit on your next purchase.

“far from convincing”… that’s a bit generous for our performance at Fulham isn’t it? If you can call it a performance… as I’ve put on my blog, the half-time sausages were the most eventful thing.

Still, I get my fifty quid back for the Feyenoord match yeah?

Negativity, negativity… looking forward to us being there as we beat the scum twice in a week!

Probably.

You know, the really sad thing about that is that I sat there thinking about it before I went and got it wrong.

Sorry to be a pedant, but the reason why no one calls the last 16 the quarter finals is because the quarter finals only has 8 teams in it….

Absolutely, yes the gate receipts from the Category A UEFA games would be much appreciated by the club. Actually, another part of the Carling Cup argument with the scum was that our neighbouring club refused to make the fixture a top price game in the way that we have. We are entitled to certain proportion of their sales, you see.

If given a bye, people may well try that line but I’d suggest some sort of reply along the lines of a 100% win rate in Europe both home and away or if in a in the stands a group rendition of ‘You never won fuck all’ would do just as well.

Hope you’re doing well and my commiserations to all the United fans up there.

Hello Bagel

As a true Yid, I can’t help but agree with your comments regarding the Uefa Cup conumdrum. However, if we get a bye in to the last 16, all the usual snide comments & gripes will come from every corner & if we go on to win it, well, you can imagine all the saddos crawling from under every rock just too eager to jump on the band wagon about how it was made easier for us.

With that in mind, I think we should play 4th place Wisla Krakow, not only for the whingers, but no doubt Daniel Levy will appreciate the increase in income from the gate receipts
