the mets relationship is complete bullshit. spurs more resemble the 2005 era phillies. up and coming, finally looking like a threat. comparing teams from different sports is stupid anyways. btw, the phillies were the ones with an inferiority complex before 2007. spurs fans have a perceived inferiority complex because arsenal have been better for 15 year, of course some fans do. you guys do have the classic arrogance of fans of a team that have been dominant, but are trying to cling to this glory years.

maybe, just maybe, this whole "inferiority complex" comes from every gooner pointing out past successes when spurs fans talk about how well we're doing this year.

Dirk has always had a crappy first touch, but at least he used to be able to score once in a while. Missed the target with a completely free header inside the six yard box with like 15 minutes left. And if Charlie Adam wants to beat the first man on a corner or free kick at some point this year, I'd be completely in favor of that.

Also Stoke can go fuck off and die. Awful to watch.

2 key decisions against us, dominated the game. Soccer is a funny game, I suppose. Tough 2 points lost, it happens in the EPL, though. Hope we can get a miracle v City. And by miracle, I mean draw.

BTW, when did Wolves become so negative? I haven't seen much of them this season, but I always remembered them as at least trying to get forward.

Honestly think Swansea have the best support in the EPL. At least a home. I thought this after the Spurs match at Liberty Stadium, but was too butthurt to admit it on the internet.

Sk, under Mick McCarthy Wolves have always been a negative side. This includes the endless time wasting, he also loves to play thugish players like Karl Henry, as he's certainly not in the team because of his footballing ability.

Monaco are 19th in Ligue 2.

7 years ago they were in the CL final.

Staggering.

Well, I believe that is due to GolTV owning English-speaking rights to the game. ESPN also has the streaming rights and will have it on ESPN3.com.

Didn't realize it was going to be on GolTV, thanks.
