Well, its a puerile comment, but I'll take the bait.....
I haven't missed a Spurs home match since the 1st May 2005 (we beat villa 5-1 that day but you probably thought it was a disgrace that we conceded a goal

) I've also seen them away 10 times (not just sat on the sofa) in the past year, including long hauls to Newcastle and Sunderland. For twelve of the last 14 seasons i've been a season ticket holder.
Does this make me an expert....of course it doesn't. You can sit watching Gordon Ramsey on Telly, but it won't make you a chef. Your assessment of the one footed, lightweight Young Pyo Lee and mine of Davids proves that we can all get it wrong.
The comment you made was that you were "dreading the rest of the season" - this after 6 matches when we have had some very tough matches with key players missing and a number of new players to bed in. I think that's a very negative view to take. Of course we haven't been convincing in every game and our start has been a disappointment. We were poor against Everton (who were excellent) and Fulham and Bolton (who certainly weren't).
Lets just say that we have differing views. Yours is 'doom and gloom', mine is that the glass is half full and that we will keep getting better. We are through to the group stages of the UEFA Cup. We have two excellent new signings in Chimbonda and Zokora and Essou- Ekotto has great potential. Danny Murphy has started to prove me wrong with some fine perfomances. With Lennon to come back and King and Berbatov getting fitter, the future is brighter than you suggest.
I just don't get the value of jumping on the side's back every time they fail to win or win 'convincingly'. This is a tough league. We may well lose at Villa next week and I think we're in for a difficult climb up the table, but I do think we'll get there eventually.
Yesterday wasn't pretty, but football is about confidence and a win is a win. If we had the luck the scousers had last week, we could have scored a hatful.
Zokora's behaviour was a disgrace, and I don't want to see that at Spurs. Mind you, until FIFA make efforts to stop so many other players from doing this kind of thing (most of the Chelsea side for example), we might as well join them!
