[FriethBlade]

Well Hendo is doing his best to ensure he's available next season

 

[hull-Blade]

About time worked in our favour

 

[Conspiracy realist]

Love VAR

Bash and Henderson got away with that one

 

[BobblesBlade]

And that’s a shock. Finally VAR

 

[Geordie Blade]

Well that evens things from the game at WHL. Both ridiculous rules.

 

[Suomi_Blade]

Nordic legend.... Berge!

VAR..... pile of pants on our side for a chanhe!

 

[Iceybabey]

Karma....?

 

[west_yorks_blade]

Ridiculous var

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Rules is rules so bollox Spurs.

 

[shrubbery]

VAR an absolute joke again. At least we get the rub of the green for once.

 

[CentralQuay]

Rules is rules so bollox Spurs.

Where is the free kick then?

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

Nonsense rule but by the letter of the law the right decision. Thank fuck it wasn’t us though I think I’d have just switched off and given up on it

 

[Greg.]

If they're going to get ex footballers on to co-commentate, can they at least know the rules?
If it touches a hand/arm at any point leading up to a goal, it's disallowed.
Phil Neville = clueless

 

[SittingontheBall]

Lacking composure at the back.

 

[Iceybabey]

Wouldn't mind us turning this into a scrap now, shithousery and gerrin it forrad.

 

[Bladesman98]

Jose teams love a scrap

 

[Bobby b]

Norwood was lucky there

 

[boss hog]

I know var hasn't been good to us this season but I'd be going ape shit if that was us.
Great goal from Berge though a real confidence booster for him.

 

[Iceybabey]

Anyone else sad they couldn't chant bleep off Mourinho, especially after him ranting to the 4th official over the VAR decision?

 

[Greg.]

About time we finally get VAR go our way this season
Looking forward to all the Spurs fans conveniently forgetting what happened with VAR in the reverse fixture!

 

[FriethBlade]

How rapid are Tottenham?

 

[Iceybabey]

Beautiful defending

 

[CentralQuay]

How rapid are Tottenham?

They look rusty to me.
A lot of heavy/poor touches.

This game is very very winnable.

 

[nathxnblade]

They’re very dangerous on the break

 

[Iceybabey]

McGoldrick, how we've missed you.

That is all.

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Excellent goal. Rode our luck since a bit. Very lucky on the VAR decision (rescued some weak defending). Norwood lucky not to get a 2nd yellow.

And Osborn’s been excellent in Fleck’s role.

 

[Kev Gee]

Really hanging on at the end.
Playing well in spells. Berge is a stand out.
Norwood has been a liability though. He will def be sent off if he carries on.

 

[VwBlade]

Solid performance so far, Berges goal and the build up was excellent. McBurnie looks to be carrying a knock to me

 

[Ossett Blade]

Cheers Sander!

 

[Bladesman98]

We can win this if we don’t fall apart
