Theyve been quoting Redknapp all day on skysports news. I think hes got alzheimers. He'd sooner be remembered for them than west ham i think. Stupid old cսnt.

yes, has his tongue firmly placed up Daniel Levy's backside. very odd ginger fucker

Ringpiece Redknapp? 

[Far Cough UKunt]

The cսnt is a gooner anyway isn't he?

Redknapp was born in Poplar, London, the only child of Henry Joseph William Redknapp (1922–1996) and Violet May Brown (1924–2001).
At age eleven, while Redknapp was playing for East London Schools football, he was spotted by Dickie Walker, a Tottenham Hotspur scout. From there, Redknapp grew in the Tottenham youth ranks playing at Cheshunt, meeting the likes of Bill Nicholson, Dave Mackay and Danny Blanchflower. At age 15, Redknapp moved to West Ham United and played alongside Bobby Moore.[11] In a 2008 interview, Redknapp stated as part of a tribute to Tom Finney, "I was a big Arsenal fan as a kid and I remember seeing him play against Tommy Docherty one night."

After being appointed Tottenham manager later in 2008, Redknapp stressed his Tottenham connections as well, stating:

I am a big follower of the history of the game and Tottenham have been a great club over the years. I followed Tottenham, I trained there as an 11-year-old, 12-year-old so I know the history of the club. It is a big, big club.

[Sanacs on tour]

the Spurs keepers performance reminded me of Roberto's run of games for us

His run of games had some absolute clangers!!

I remember the first astro turf pitch I ever played on...it was basically something you could pick up in Allied Carpets glued to some tarmac. Absolutely brutal.

I thought that Luton/Oldham/Q.P.R pitches were more sophisticated but they were practically the same bloody thing! 

[Westham67]

The 4Bs are extending their season ticket renewal period due to the concerns "Whinges of the entitled ones" of Spurs fans that they will be relegated

[Fauxstralian]

BODO are a tiny team & no one could name any of their players
Good luck to them

Tottenham won the Europa which had no Champions league drop outs by beating BODO and then an awful Man U team in a final that would have embarrassed a National League playoff final or a Johnstones Paint Trophy round of 16
They then sacked their manager because it was so embarrassing 

[Massive Attack]

Definitely a guilty pleasure for fans watching Spurs completely losing their shit. Some take it so bad they either walk out of live national radio broadcasts or go missing for days on end when they cannot accept their demise.

[Takashi Miike]

Anfield, on sunday

[honky cat]

Anyway
When are they on next? are we starting another thread? I can't keep away, it's like some terrible porn addiction, I'll need the priory if they manage to sort themselves out.

[Takashi Miike]

Bodo are a top team.

Does make me laugh when people claim Sp*rs didn't play any decent teams in the Europa last season when they dispatched of Bodo in the semis and Man Utd in the final.

top team my arse. they benefit from a plastic pitch, they're about as top as oldham/qpr back in the day. you spurs cսnt

[fraser]

Man U were fucking shit last season we did the double over them with Lop and Potter.. That's a quite a level of shit. Bodo have improved this season as well. 

Having said that they beat better teams than we did to win the conference.

[fraser]

Didn't Bodo win away at Atletico too? 

[John Drake]

Luis Guilherme played the opening 80 minutes for Sporting

[Fauxstralian]

Playing up near the Arctic circle I guess the pitch is a necessity if you want to play at all
Understood Bodo are out of season as well so this is amazing …. smashed City, beat Inter home & away and now destroyed Sporting
UEFA must be hating it as their darlings go out

Yeah, these days they're not AstroTurf in the old sense. There are parameters and standards. Whilst ideally all football would be played on snooker table style pitches, our own turf is grass seed entwined around synthetic (vinyl) strands of plastic grass. Robot mowers with lasers cut the genetically modified semi-organic grass strands down to within a fraction of a millimetre of the maximum length of the vinyl. Our undersoil heating sucks before it blows to straighten it all out after it is used, so none of it is truly turf. Those that are proper grass become the muddy quagmires you see when a lower league team draws a big name in the cup and we all laugh nostalgically about how quaint it is that it's a 'proper old school pitch' like Bonds used to play on and it separates the men from the pandered millionaire players of today.

In all honesty the plastic pitches are better, more uniform and safer than those muddy ones these days but if a club doesn't have the money (or sometimes the climate) to keep a pitch in the conditions we're used to but can still be champions over a season only playing half their matches on it, I'm ok with them having their home ground in European competition being the same as the home ground that made them domestic champions.

I'd sooner that than the slim possiblity that Tottenham could be playing in the Champions League next season in one of the flashiest stadia in the world but in the domestic second tier. That really would cheapen the competition!

[Massive Attack]

Nothing wrong with plastic pitches if that's what their champions play on, that's what the home advantage is about. The real issue is that it is no longer a competition for the best teams. When it was one competition for the league champions and another for the cup winners, you knew what it was for, how each team qualified and it was completely fair across all of the UEFA affiliates.

Couldn't agree more on the 2nd point. UEFA have diluted and fucked about with all the competitions that they have lost some of it's prestige.

As for plastic pitches, if every Club decided they would rather play Football on a plastic pitch, you'd be happy with that? Personally I don't enjoy watching games played on such pitches.

The plastic pitches shouldn't be allowed, hate seeing it in the game. Funny though as it makes the Champions League look a bit 2Bob. 

[Tomshardware]

The Bodo Glint success is a great story, definitely helped by their astro pitch though.

[Fauxstralian]

Atletico 5 Yids 2
PSG 5 Chelsea 2
Real 3 Man City 0 

BODO GLIMT 3 Sporting 0

Could actually start liking the Champions League 
Go BODO!
