Spurs 0-2 Rob Styles

Spurs lost 2-0 today to Rob Styles and his brand of appalling ability at being a ref. A blind man would have done a better job after today’s appalling efforts by the muppet in black. Goals from del Horno and Duff ensured the Champions left with all three points.

Spurs started brightly and just about edged the game in the early exchanges. Defoe looked sharp and Mido was causing problems throughout. An excellent move allowed Davids to burst through. Essien (24 million my arse) hacked him down and looked like the last man but Styles, probably recently wined and dined on the Mafia’s yacht, only gave him a yellow. Minutes later Mido challenged for a ball with his arms raised. Styles run as fast as his little legs would carry him to show him the red card even though he was 40 yards away and the linesman was closer. As usually thought with these egotistical referees, he decided he was far too important to take on anyone else’s view and sent Mido straight off. This, of course, changed the whole game. Chelsea then took the lead from a well-worked corner but it is always disappointing to concede from a set piece.

Lennon replace Tainio at the break and his paced caused Chelsea a few problems but to be fair they controlled the game. They made it safe after a lucky touch saw Duff scramble the ball home to kill us off.

What cannot be faulted is the performance of the team today. Even with ten men we put up a good effort and before Styles ruined the game we were actually putting a lot of pressure on the Russian scum. What can be faulted is the boring football Chelsea played. Even when winning 2-0 they felt the need to pass back from the midfield to the defence and then to the keeper. The Chelsea “fans” may as well have not bothered to turn up as they were silent until the last ten minutes and even then they managed a feeble “Champions” chant. What would be interesting is to see how many Chelski fans can actually spell “Champions”. Not many I expect.

"The public can't be kidded. They know what they want to see, what is good 
and what is bad and what is just average. At least I believe they do." We watched a good Chelski side today play dull, boring, George Graham style football. Bill Nicholson, quoted above, would have been appalled by the performance by Chelsea today. They may be satisfied with boring the opposition to the title. We, at Spurs, will never be satisfied with that and it is that belief which makes us the greatest club in the land.

COYS!
