Afternoon all
This is the Official Blackburn V Spurs Match Thread....AND ITS LIVE
Quite an interesting game in prospect, we needed a Peter Crouch goal and a bundle of luck last season to come away with the 3 points, but with Blackburn rooted to the bottom end of the league i would take nothing less than 3 points
Hopefully there will be some Links to the game somewhere

At least that explains why we didn't see Sandro
And at least he did the right thing taking Lennon off - he had a shocker and seemed to be hiding - passing the ball backwards & not making his usual runs to recieve the ball. I guess Harry wanted to keep our shape and didn't want to take Modric out of the middle.. which is fair enough

We should of played a better striker than Roberts we could got a result then ,but than Spurs have a little more quality than us and that was the differance

Fair play skinovers, Hoilett & Samba were your best players for me. Would love to have both at Spurs!

Bales :
Possible bidding war with the G00ns for Samba in Jan.
Similar with Cahill.
And they have the funds too.
