[Archived] Tottenham Hotspur vs. Blackburn Rovers

[rover the hill]

Don't think he has any or much say in who comes in and goes out of the squad.

[philipl]

In coming Kean has had no say.

What he does with them once they are here he has had too much say.

He has made sure that everyone who has directly or directly criticised him have been marginalised. He has tried to butter Dunn and MGP but the rest got pushed. However, Vukcevic is a budgeting issue- pure and simple.

Spurs 5 Rovers 0 is my best guess for this afternoon.

[rover the hill]

I agree but is that the norm for a football manager? Again if he had anything about him he should have walked away long ago.

It was also his decision to drop Givet at a time when the team desperately needed him. Givet would still be sat in the stand now if he hadn't spoken out.

Harry is starting to lose the Spuds faithful. They are on a shocking run. Keep them out for 20 mins and atmosphere could benefit us. Convert the odd chance, close down, match their movement, Alamo style defending and we could hold em to a 3-1 defeat!

Come on Rovers, surprise us!!

[Tugay-is-God]

Anyone know if the Spuds will still be selling tickets at the door?

No. Tickets went off sale at 1pm yesterday.

Replace Spurs with Liverpool and Harry with Kenny and you basically have Rovers Vs Liverpool a couple of weeks ago... and we all know what happened there.

With Chelsea thumping QPR 4-0 if there wasn't an incentive already there sure is now.

[Pitty]

If cheasea can get a few more goals and we gt a shock win, we could actually find ourselves out of the relegation zone. It would then be in our own hands if we stayed up.

[roverandout]

yes and my fairy godmother might grant me one wish so that i can spend the night with jessica biel!!!

[MarkBRFC71]

I hope those Rovers fans in attendance will be singing long and loud something along the lines of "we should have kept Ryan Nelsen ...."

[nick123]

Sat waiting watching Sky Sports, can't wait to see Kean's smiling face telling us about his team selection.

Wide eyed, Whisky cheeks, looking up into the interviews eyes as he always seems 2 foot shorter than them.

Explains how he and he alone has plotted our escape, in fact he will produce a guitar and sing a song he has composed to celebrate our survival. Which he hopes to sing again on the Ewood centre circle after the Wigan game !

Don't get your hopes up mate, we'll also get thumped.

[bigbrandjohn]

5-0 Chelsea. Torres hat trick. Helping the goal difference

[Tugay-is-God]

If we a gonna have any chance if staying in this division we have to win today, I can't see it happening but it's up to Stevie and the boys to prove me wrong.

Wigan fans must be well chuffed this weekend, they've now got a better GD than QPR.

If we a gonna have any chance if staying in this division we have to win today, I can't see it happening but it's up to Stevie and the boys to prove me wrong.

I almost vomited when I saw him being referred to as ''Stevie''.

[Dunnfc]

Just win today at al costs. keep it tight park the bus and get hoilett to run in that box as many times, spurs are quite slow at the back and im hoping we grab a penalty.

Win today and beat wigan could be us safe.

[DE.]

No N'Zonzi for us again. Formica Dunn Lowe Pedersen in midfield... Hoilett off Yakubu again.

[Tom]

Why is Marcus ahead of Martin at LB? Simply has to be money there's no other reason

On the up side we only need to win 2-0 to go above QPR

[Doug]

How the hell is Marcus keeping Martin out. Does he still have injury concerns?

[Mercer]

Same again - no Zonz and no Martin Olsson.

Indefensible.

[MarkBRFC71]

Robbo, Orr, Dann, Givet, Marcus Olsson; Formica, Dunn, Lowe, Pedersen; Hoilett, Yak.

Marcus instead of Martin again - incredible. I'd also have brought N'Zonzi back for Pedersen assuming he gives one after being dropped.

[martypellowe]

6-0 Chelski. A brief ray of light in what will no doubt be an otherwise fruitless weekend thanks to Bolton and Wigan's results.

[Al]

Chelsea 6 now.

Chelsea 6 now.

6 - 1

[Ricky]

Martin must still be struggling with an injury.
