Oh I dunno...I think we'd give them a good match if we got paired in a cup tie. Have faith in us!
Cheers

We'd have to play our u15's for them to have a chance at hitting the woodwork that many times.

Got my Spurs away ticket in the post this morning. Last time I went was opening day with Lineker and Gazza playing for them. Football had changed forever and it was noticeable more relaxed and groovy as an away fan, with colours on show.
That was 25 YEARS AGO, just after Italia '90.

Not a fact as such, but I'm finding harder to worship players now that most are younger then me.
Yet still feel young when taking sessions with seniors over here.

I remember the bastard from the U18's.
He's scored something like 67 goals for Ireland, but I still could never take to the cnut.
