They will blame..

The weather

Playing Rochdale

Being live on TV

But at the end of the day less than 25,000 is a joke. And not a word in the press, on Sky or the BBC.

When did we last have a crowd that low? The mid-eighties maybe?

That's the spirit Insider.

Let's laugh at the match attendance of another club because it is really fúcking important.

I am going to tweet it.

tbf - Spurs's ignorance in not basing the capacity of the new stadium on a FA Cup replay against a **** league one club in terrible conditions with severe transport restrictions IS HILARIOUS. Honestly

Can I just point out that we're supposed to take the piss out of Spurs?

Honestly, you people are so busy hating on the Arsenal, you've forgotten your real enemy.

You see you're on the wrong side again, sw. You're supposed to slag the opposition, not The Arsenal.

I appreciate that this is a complicated issue for you to understand, so if you get someone who can write to write 'Arsenal good, others bad' on the toes of your wellies, you'll be able to look down and remind yourself.

If only you could read :-(

I am also an adult and cannot be bothered with such simplistic analysis.

Ozil is better than Erikson. Yes, I can accept that.

Alli is a complete ****, again yes.

Rixy is better than Hoddle. Now you see that is a stretch and if I was singing it I think mid-sentence I would query it, internally perhaps, and the tone and volume of the song would fall off.

Now tribal loyalties aside Rix was a nonce, probably still is. Where I come from that is wrong. Lovely left foot all the same.

Seeing as I love putting myself up to be shot at, I should point out that Glenn is a mate of mine and actually a throughly decent chap - although I have recently taken to blocking him on NLD days!

The adult point here is that they are constanly saying that they are a huge club with a massive loyal following, when they are in fact a buch of swamp dwelling dick cheeses who only turn out when there is a spot of glory to be had. We would have still got 40-50 thousand last night - at least!

No, not unless you refer to the fact that we have many more plastics than them.

And as Sir C points out, we are not here for reasoned arguments, if you want that go comment on the Guardian site with the lefty tosspots!

Yep, they all live in the rancid swamp that is N17, I am sure that you have been there and smelt the gases coming off the nearby marshland, it effects the brain......and they never wash (although maybr I made that second bit up).

I shall be honest with you Dutch, it is quite wild.

Red weather warning with specific instruction to not go outdoors between 4pm today and mid-day tomorrow. I am thinking of being somewhat rebellious and stepping out into the garden around 4:10.

I need to get some logs anyway from the shed so needs must.

I have no beer. None.

After a particularly nasty break up in 1991 I had the misfortune of living in Seven Sisters for about 4 months. Heartbreak aside it was without doubt the lowest time of my London adventure.

Utter shíthouse.

I also played football for a team based in Tottenham so spent various periods in the area.

Yes I do have wine, red of course but there is 1-2 bottles of white in case we have female callers to the door.

Also Whiskey, Gin, Aperol and cider.

Think there is also some cherry beer in the fridge.

:-( A couple of bottles of wine won't last you more than an evening, for Christ's sake.

If you start on the Paddy, the wife's going to take a proper battering, isn't she? :-(

Beer can fúck off. There, I've said it.

You need gallons of it to get where you need to be, it makes you piss like a racehorse and your breath smells like an Irishman's árse. Furthermore, you end up with a gargantuan gut.

Wine is the stuff for the civilised gentleman. Also scotch, vodka, whisky, brandy and anything else required to make a pre-prandial cocktail.

Yes. I cannot say I'm surprised you'd say that, to be honest. I am a married man with the future success of the species at heart, whereas you are practically a homosexual.

In short, beer makes sure there's always lead in the pencil. As it were.
