Title: Edgar Davids

Quality signing for spurs and the premiership in a whole.

With Figo maybe going to liverpool all these world class players coming to England. It is good for the game but what about the kids coming through? Its getting harder and harder for them.

Is a good signing for Spurs. Hope he treats it seriously though.

I think Figo may well end up at Liverpool.

Have you got a ticket Yeovil, or just turning up? And is it Reading they are playing?


Title: Edgar Davids
Post by: yeo on Tuesday, July 26, 2005, 20:39:25
Yes Reading .Spoke to them today said there should be tickets available on the day but they cant say for definite.Spurs end is sold out though.

About 10 going from Swindon catching the 9.00 train and going on the lash after a bit of breakfast.I finish work at 6 on Saturday morning :shock:

Should be a good day.

I've only been there once, October 93, stuck in the Spurs end with two mates from work watching Swindon deservedly get a 1-1 draw, Fjortoft was so unlucky that day.
I remember the Swindon support that day was excellent. And I think it was a Bodin penalty, can't remember.

He's not that good :wink:

I do think that Mr Jolly has got himself a thoroughly decent team now, my tip for 4th this season.....

Yep well done Dom he lives in quenington you know.

Would be great to see Chelsea and Spurs battling it out for the title this year, man united and arsenal outside of the top 4. :advercool:

Have you been on the Ale tonight?, anyone who has seen Davids play last season will see that he's way past his best..... ah yeah i suppose he could do a job for Spurs. :mrgreen:

king will be off in a year or two... this is a temporary blip in their crapness, normal service will be resumed soon enough :P and then the Villa's glory days *cough* will return...

Didnt realise you were a closet Villa fan Leggett? :shock: . King will be off to Arsenal next summer...FACT!.

Post by: Leggett on Wednesday, July 27, 2005, 05:55:20
yea, very very quiet about it, cos i usually get grief off near enough everyone. we're shit. my mum's an ex-brum, and my sister's fella supported them and kinda got me interested in em way back when they first started goin out, been to a couple of matches. not a proper out-and-out supporter of em, as that lies with swindon, i just like to keep an eye out for em if ya get me?


Title: Edgar Davids
Post by: Spud on Wednesday, July 27, 2005, 05:57:01
I dont blame you for keeping it quiet especially having been spanked by the Brum on a number of occasions.

all these world class players coming to England

The trouble is they all seem to be over 30 and looking for a big pay day.Davids is a class player but he's a greedy fucker,thats why he spent most of last season on loan .


Title: Edgar Davids
Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Wednesday, July 27, 2005, 12:07:04
England has loads of world class players anyway. Terry, Lampard, Henry, Makalele, Cech, Rooney, Robben, Gerrard all up with the best in the world.


Title: Edgar Davids
Post by: DMR on Wednesday, July 27, 2005, 12:09:40
Ferdinand, Alonso... Crouch?


Title: Edgar Davids
Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Wednesday, July 27, 2005, 12:18:19
Odviously Crouch too, it's far from an exhaustive list.

I remember the spurs game, nearly had my head taken off by the flare, just glad who ever chucked it had a strong arm.

I hope davids will have an impact, not just fanny around, then say he don't like the weather and piss off again.

Spurs have brought some good players, but it is spurs, so they will still end up around 10th

Post by: Spud on Wednesday, July 27, 2005, 13:58:04
Spurs should stick with their youthful side, if they got another world class forward to partner Defoe then i could see them finishing in the top 6. :|

Spurs for the champions league :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

They seem to be just buying players for the fun of it at the moment. How many midfield players does one club need?


Title: Edgar Davids
Post by: Leggett on Wednesday, July 27, 2005, 16:24:10
i think chelsea take the 1st prize in having the possibility of fielding 11 midfielders in one game...

Davids plays his first game and Spurs go TOP OF THE LEAGUE! GO ON SPURS! :beers:

Yeah Spurs might aswell make the most of it while it lasts. :mrgreen:

Well done Ben :-))(.I'm pleased for you,that the spurs are second in the league in october is a real achievement.

Yes it is and they're playing bloody well as well. The premiership table looks better than it has done for years.


Title: Edgar Davids
Post by: larwood on Monday, October 17, 2005, 15:09:22
I suppose with us in the position we're in,its always a good idea to have another team to look out for :wink: .But i really don't give a stuff about what is going on in the preimership and i especially don't care about spurs :P .

We're bottom of the league though.

Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Monday, October 17, 2005, 15:38:22
Yeah but we're not in the premiership, I like to take some solace from Spurs if they are doing well and we're not 'cos I've supported them about as long as Swindon but Swindon's results are odviously a lot more important to me.

My mate got me a ticket for Spurs ar West Ham in November 8)  Its a Sunday game so no need to miss the Swindon and a good call for a Sunday piss oop. :beers:
