So Im guessing an objector then;)

Personally I dont care but with recent events arent the Argies being a bit confrontational and why rename it now nearly 30 years after the event?

I always thought it was the Premier League and EPL was the crap spouted by Rogers and other third world TV networks.

Agree that the second penalty was 'dodgy' but that only made up for the stone wall penalty that wasn't given in the first half :)

But yes, 2 points dropped by both sides. Less important for you though, you're not going to catch either variety of Mancunian scum, but keeping Pool 3 points behind Toon? Priceless. Thank you.

It's only 7 points, anything could happen ...

So Arry found not guilty then.
Trial only cost 8 million quid and nobody found guilty mmm someone from the CPS will have some explaining to do and Im sure the taxpayers will think it was value well spent.
Im guessing Oink will be having a drink in Arrys acquital;)
Im ok with Spurs finishing 3rd and the Toon 4th.

Eight million pounds spent prosecuting a case that should never have made it to court. I'm happy for Harry and his family.

There's going to be a great atmosphere at the Lane on Saturday.:thumb up:

And to quote Harry. "I especially have to thank the fans of Tottenham - the Wigan game was the most moving I've ever felt it. To have them singing my name throughout the game, that will always be special to me. I'll never forget that."

I guess it beats having to listen to When the Spurs go marching in all game or We are Tottenham from the lane :lol:
Actually I think Arry is a bit of a character so Im pleased hes still around.

Looks like your early rants about Redknapp proved unfounded.

What a waste of 8 million squid........in Ontario they don't spend $8 chasing non-tax payers. Those English have alot to learn.

Anyway the Spurs go marching on. Time to line up Mourinho to take us to the next level.
