With the exception of Murray all the decent players we have lost have been under contract so whose fault is it that they have gone?

No more away matches for me until we start to improve
Did you go today expecting a win?

fact of the matter is that we , as a football team , currently , in a scoring goals and TAKING points off other teams sense , are about as effectual as an antelope on university challenge.

We had one shot on target that has to be good doesn't it or was it Dunk again?

that would explain the "lost" looking phoenomena......they clearly don't "get" the system/tactics and or have no desire.

I would rather us play one of our own development squad players than Gardner. If he was in our DS we would have released him. He doesn't look interested and offers nothing to the team. I think he tries, but hasn't got the ability.

I went expecting us to at least give it a go, this did not happen.

Oh not at all, I really rate stockdale. Just be good to cultivate another option between the posts.
Got Spurs on a Good Day for Them
When we lose the midfield (as expected) we have nothing in the locker. No pace for breakaways, no shooting and the defence cannot hold out for ever. I think Bruno would have had a very good chance at the stopping the crosses cum shots that led to their goals. Just as we were beginning to get it together we conceded. We all knew that our central defenders were not Premier League quick enough. None of them are in the Championship.
Spurs pressing game gave them much more possession. That's OK as they were running a little out of steam and then they scored.
Lualua never had so much trouble with McNaughton. Just showed one glimpse of what he could do.
Spurs played like we should at home. Dominated the game and had alert quick strikers. Their full backs did not wander forward at all. I think they figured their possession would mean that they would not concede and sooner or later their pressure would tell.
Four quarter chances for us, lots for them. Lualua tight angle on his left foot, Dunk lack of composure over the bar, Colunga on his left foot, and I've forgotten the other one. I think Tozer intercepted.
I think the main problem was that Spurs played well, much better than they did in the European game last mid-week. That game they kept losing possession. This time they kept the ball.

I remember TB and Barber saying how they spoke extensively to 'people in football' before appointing SH. What did they actually hear? That he has no clue how to change a losing team around, that he signs the wrong players for a formation he sticks to, that he shrugs his shoulders when he is asked a question, that he shows no passion etc. After all that faffing TB and Barber just appointed a 'Yes man' (probably after Poyet) and it worries me they are too stubborn to fix it.

Defence was good first half but as soon as we get it to the halfway line there's no one to pass to so we end up losing it and they attack again, vicious circles, you can't defend for 90mins! Something needs to change before we're down and out at the bottom of the league
