Dunno, is it the same for home games? It also depends what 'band' of membership you are on at Spurs - for the higher band tickets go on sale earlier, there are like 5 bands as well - Lilywhite, Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum - mostly going on sale at different times, and only after that does it go on general sale.

I'm sure your sis will love it, lets hope for her that Keano's drought doesn't continue :whistle: :D

Hammers VS West Brom will both be without sponsors this weekend - very unusual for a prem match!

[Rappy Veteran]

Guess who scored for Man City after 13 minutes...

Never understood the thumb sucking celebration.

[Powa]

We should have beaten Liverpool today. If you look at the goals Utd were their own worst enemy.

After the first three minutes United offered nothing.

Liverpool deserved to win. I was just concerned it would not happen, we always struggle to score against you lot.

Never understood the thumb sucking celebration.

Its a tribute to family members usually, like a child being born. Kind of like the cradle rocking that some people do.

3-1, gg man city

[Rappy Veteran]

Yeha Man City just fell apart really but Robinho looked good out there.

or maybe the fact that the second half liverpool dominated...

Well over the course of the game, we were better only over the first 10-20 minutes and after, with the Pool nicking a goal, it was only go one way. It just seemed to me that United weren't trying hard enough. (or perhaps tired, although it no excuse to perform in that manner).

Neverless, the goal really played a huge part in the mentality for the rest of the game, we were on top before the goal and Liverpool were finding it very difficult to break us down. But after the goal, it was full steam ahead for Liverpool and well we just looked deflated. Even people like Tevez who is constantly pushing just didn't have the gas enough and it was inevitable for Liverpool to get that goal. Well done to them though, I can't argue that the Pool fully deserved it. *grits teeth* :laugh:

Well hopefully United can pull it back together for the CL game midweek, and seen as its not gonna get any easier going to the Bridge next weekend, we really need to pick it up. But you heard it here first, United to win! And break that unbelievable record of 4 years not losing for Chelsea at home.

[Crazysah]

Arsenal won! Man City played well but lost! Congrats to Liverpool!

Seriously though... What the hell is happening to Newcastle? They lost again! Go Hull!

OMG! Stoke almost did it again but this time lost to Everton 2-3 at home!

[Kralik]

Spurs 1-2 Villa :D :D :D :D I like it.. I reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally like it.. Spurs number 20.. below Hull and Stoke.. WOW!! and

everyone was saying this is their year.. Ramos out next? lets wait and see till christmas..

No let-up in Newcastle fans' actions against Mike Ashley

Mike Ashley is believed to have been in Abu Dhabi last night in an attempt to push through a quick sale of Newcastle United, but the club's embattled owner has been informed by supporters that protests against his regime will continue. After a dismal summer that has left Newcastle with no manager, no long-term benefactor and an ill-equipped squad, fans are establishing their own representative body.

Concerns that Ashley would not deliver on his promise to cut his ties with Tyneside have lifted after the billionaire sportswear retailer departed for the Middle East to seek potential buyers. Dennis Wise, the executive director (football) and Tony Jimenez, the club's vice-president, were dispatched to Dubai for the same purpose, although Dubai International Capital, the private-equity investment arm of the Dubai Government which has been courting Liverpool, denied any interest in bailing out Ashley.

Fans have been mobilised by Kevin Keegan's resignation, the influence of Wise and Derek Llambias, the managing director, and the failure to strengthen the team significantly. They are preparing for an attritional campaign to oust Ashley, who has requested an end to the sort of demonstrations that accompanied Saturday's home defeat by Hull City. The Newcastle United Supporters Group will be formed at a public meeting near St James' Park this evening.

“The protests at the running of our club by Ashley, Wise and Llambias need to continue and collectively Newcastle United supporters require an organisation which has a mass membership, is inclusive and has a legitimacy to represent,” a joint statement from The Mag and true faith fanzines said. The mood is one of constructive militancy. In spite of Ashley's contention that his family “would be assaulted” if they attended Newcastle matches, police praised the fans “for the way in which they behaved”.

Spurs made a miserable start last year under Jol, a year they where supposedly going to challenge for the top four. It looks like it is the same old story this time around.

fergie is a baby

MANCHESTER, England - Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has risked sanction from the Football Association by accusing the head of Premier League referees of showing favouritism toward Chelsea.

Ferguson made the accusation against Keith Hackett after Chelsea captain John Terry's red card against Manchester City was rescinded, clearing him to face United in Sunday's high-profile Premier League game.

"My information is that Hackett told (referee) Mark Halsey to rescind the red card and he would not do it," Ferguson was quoted as saying in Wednesday's newspapers. "Now I understand that Halsey is being made to referee in the second division this weekend.

"I just don't undertand how this could have happened. If it had been a Manchester United player, Hackett would never have done this for us."

The Professional Game Match Officials Board, which Hackett heads, said Hackett was not involved in the decision.

"All matters of discipline are an issue for the FA - and them alone," the organization said in a statement.

Terry was sent off by Halsey for hauling down Man City striker Jo near the end of Chelsea's 3-1 victory on Saturday. Chelsea appealed, and an FA panel ruled in its favour Tuesday.

Instead of serving an automatic three-game suspension, Terry is now free to play against United.

I agree abt Sir Alex.. he is getting too old for this.. and maybe that is the reason he just doesn't care any more.. I think he will leave by the end of this season or the next..

But the way the JT red card and ban were overturned are surprising and a bit suspicious.. anyway I would not talk abt refrees taking sides if I was Man Utd manager.. coz everyday has seen season in and out how they get favours from the refs.. penalties that others dont get.. Red cards that other get etc etc..

[Rappy Veteran]

It was certainly a red and the law is an ass for sure, but I bet if Neil had done that or Upson he would be banned for 3 games.
