Black Eye's, Groin Strain's & Penalty Practice

My day started rather well today with the delightful news of Jamie O doing Spurs proud by decking former Spurs man and epitome of mediocrity Michael Brown. Apparently dear Mikey got a little frustrated in training and was flying in with a few reckless challenges. JOH must have had a Dalmat flashback and showed him how to do things Stephane Styli

Looking at this mug makes me feel warm inside knowing he's got a black eye and the man who gave it to him is probably throwing it in Danielle Lloyd at this very moment. God bless Jamie O'Hara, a proper Yiddo.

A tackle that has had me worried today is the news that lickle Azza blud and his go-fast eyebrows are still no closer to reaching White Hart Lane after an apparent groin tweak in training. I'd love to see Lennon back as soon as possible to aid our push for fourth but would want to take every precaution not to cause him any further damage by rushing him back too soon.

Although Bentley has stepped up competently if not emphatically Lennon's speed has been badly missed. I will continue to support Bentley but his lack of pace seems to exacerbate the lack of penetration in our midfield. With Bale in inspired form down the left, our right hand currently looks pedestrian in comparison.

Probably the best news of today is that we have been practicing penalties in preparation for our FA Cup tie with Bolton tomorrow. In a typically English way we wait until we miss a bucketload of penalties until we realise that practicing them might help us score them. Inspired work from our coaching staff...

I don't think that the tie will reach penaltys tomorrow night. With reports saying a second string Bolton side will be turning up in N17 tomorrow night with a relegation battle being priority I fancy us to turn them over in 120mins. If we don’t at least we are prepared...
