I bet Stoke get a 3rd.

[carl_feedthegoat]

hahahhahahahhahah hilarious.

[Dameerto]

Kabul off for a second yellow. Hang in there Stoke.

[Moonchesteri]

Crouch is putting in a really decent shift today! Hope they can hang on to this. Walters to score 3rd would be icing on the cake

5 mins of Twitchy time

Well done Stoke. now work on your fitness you bunch of sissies.

[Douglas Higginbottom]

Carl's right that was hilarious. Spurs could have 3 or 4 penalties and that sending off was a joke. Stoke looked like they were playing in diving boots for the last 30 minutes and somehow hung on. Great entertainment.

[freshie]

the word "unplayable" is thrown around way too much by commentators. Crouch is not unplayable today, Spurs just aren't defending him that well

Exactly. Spurs' defence is shit. Wonder what Hansen and co will have to say abut them now?

[Sideshow Bob]

hahahaha...love it! fuck off spuds!

[Ted Hughes]

I know that refs will give that penalty 9 times out of 10, but he barely grazed his shin. Such a small amount of contact shouldn't bring a grown man down. But that's the reality of the modern game I guess

It's just wrong that pens are given for stuff like that. It was a split second mistake where he flicked out his foot thinking he would get the to ball then pulled it away again, trying not to impede the bloke. Modric went past him, still on his feet, could have got the ball no problem, but then realised he should have dived, did so & still got the pen. It should only be a pen for a genuine foul not a mere touch. When you see some of the rugby challenges that go on at corners but aren't given; they are blatant 100% nailed on penalties. It's ridiculous.

Stoke though are a pub team. Sometimes they had 4 players in Spurs' half with the ball under control, yards of space & as much time as they wanted; they had no fucking idea what to do with it as it was on the ground. Pathetic.

If Spurs win the league btw; I am the Pope.

Did anyone saw Scott Parker's dive in the first half? Suarez would had been impressed. Top "quality".

Not as bad as all Serie A most important strikers' dives, not only Ibra, if I may suggest you!

Yes & I agree completely; he was doing a fair bit of diving. The more I watch him, the less I like the arse stuck out, slow, overrated, mincing, nazi faced twat.

That seems a pretty apt description; nice one Ted.

At the moment, Twitcher doesn't seem to be a happy Bunny after that defeat; complaining about all the refereeing decisions that went against his title challenging team of all the talents. Pity he didn't make this level of noise after Cahill was sent off the previous week-end.

Still, all the big teams, when playing against the small teams, get all the refereeing decisions going their way and Stoke, as one of the big teams in the Division, benefited against 'Arry's small team, so he'll just have to get used to it, now and in the future.
