J4MES OX4D 10,022 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Really enjoyed the Wimbledon v Liverpool game tonight! Cracking FA Cup tie throughout and the Wombles gave the Reds a hell of a run the whole game and created lots of good chances. 1-2 but could have easily ended up 3-4.

phil bottle 9,741 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Good luck to the mighty Ipswich Town tonight, you'll give them a good game I have no doubt. It helps that Southampton are historically a team I don't like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J4MES OX4D 10,022 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Cracking crowd at Portman Road last night but quite a tough task for Ipswich in the end. It was extremely tight (and boring ) until Shane Long scored (great finish) but the hosts just couldn't get anything going in the final third. Southampton really pressed Ipswich on the ball which made it hard for them to get comfortable on the ball and create any solid chances. McGoldrick should have passed instead of shooting towards the end of the first half as that was a rare and very decent opportunity and the only other clear chance was the header just after half time. The Saints didn't really threaten much either but they looked solid and not in any real danger to concede. Southampton have looked incredible all year and there is a real possibility of them getting a CL place. Ipswich also have a real chance of getting back into the Prem from what I've seen of them on the box this season. Poor old Millwall fans last night Great win for Spurs too after being 2-0 down after 8 minutes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plumbers Crack 4,056 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 We had a few players out with illness but I don't think it would have affected the result.....I would call it a reality check for those eager for the Promised Land!

My fellow yids couldn't make it, so I didn't bother getting a ticket. I occasionally get a call the day before games from a mate with a spare, so you never know... It sold out a lot quicker than I thought it would too. What about yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine it's cheaper for you to get a return ticket but you're welcome any time dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine it's cheaper for you to get a return ticket but you're welcome any time dude Yep! It was either there or a restricted view in the shelf side - I sat behind the pole in the lower tier years and years back for the Arsenal game and it still cost something like £68 for the ticket I could see probably 30% of the pitch and 100% of the Arsehole fans That's much appreciated Phil - I have the day off but I don't know the crack work-wise next day but I'll keep you posted. If I have the Thursday off; I may take you up on your kind offer but if I don't; I'll have to race back to Oxford; get back at 2am and start getting ready for work Will let you know though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got my old Spurs coat from 2008 that is incredibly warm and I even wear it to some Oxford games too I've dug out a scarf from the 2009 Carling Cup Final which I don't remember buying but I will wear that too. All I gotta worry about now is what skirt to wear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil bottle 9,741 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Chelsea What really fucks me off is that I grew up with Cheatski being a second division club, then in the late 90s Ken Bates almost put them out of business buying flashy name players. Fulham had as many fans as them. A few days before the russian mafia bought the club, it was about to go bust, they were going to be wound up. As for tonight, Jose used to complain about teams parking the bus, oh the irony. At least we (Spurs) put 5 past the smug twats this month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even he hates what the money has done to the club. As for the thrashing, it put a huge smile on my face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
