Devastating result, but absolutely a yellow. It was a good call. Regardless of the result, even if you think it was cynical, nothing about that challenge met any currently-written standard for a red card.

There’s a post-match thread in r/coys for a reason, and that’s an appropriate place to vent out these types of feelings with other people who actually care. Every club has devastating injuries and turns of awful luck, we’re not special. It’s irritating AF to spam self-indulgent victimhood posts like this to subs where they’re really not relevant, and it’s not healthy to get caught in an outrage loop like this (assuming you’re not trolling).

tl;dr – yellow. you’re being cringe, maybe log off for a while.

Hey, I’ll take your word for it – I’m not an expert on that rebuild.

Was just talking timeframes, not asserting deep equality. I can’t imagine any two rebuilds could ever be comparable apples to apples.

Those were the first two rebuilds that came to mind when thinking of rebuilds that I’d ultimately consider successful which were tactically driven and not bolstered by a petrodollar takeover.

I don’t think that invalidates my point that a two-season rebuild timeframe is decently ambitious, and winning the league within the starting season isn’t a reasonable benchmark or priority for a successful rebuild.

Somebody tell Dier‘s missus we need a pregnancy announcement, quickly!

Pundits who have fill x minutes of dead air per hour latched onto this “Spurs Title Challengers?” narrative and unfortunately it seems to have stuck.

Meanwhile we’re over here happy to be kicking off the total rebuild we’ve needed since the Poch era.

Spurs are hoping to regain European football and hopefully have a strong 2024/2025 season once we’ve got a couple transfer windows and a season of squad / tactics gelling under our belt. Which I think is plenty ambitious compared to the time frame of other successful rebuilds (e.g. Klopp at Liverpool or Arteta at Arsenal).

Folk were saying we’d be relegated with no Kane and an “Unprepared for the Premier League” manager mate

I think everyone in the world (probably including Romero) is in agreement about this?

His ability to ride the knife-edge of crazy is one of the things that makes Romero so effective. Unfortunately, it also makes his mistakes high-impact and dangerous. His responsibility has improved significantly this season, and I hope that trajectory continues. He’s often been lucky to avoid real consequences for his rash tackles in the past, and I hope this is a reality check for him.

I can’t imagine that cultivating discipline in one of the youngest squads in the PL is not a part of Ange’s plan. I’d expect that Ange’s refusal to make excuses for his players bad decisions or disagree with ref calls will also support a culture of responsibility.

This was such a massive, brutal mistake, with zero opportunity for Wolves to recover. Horrible to watch.

No one has borne the brunt of ref / VAR mistakes like Wolves across multiple seasons now, and no other club even comes close. Anyone frustrated with the state of refereeing etc. should be talking about Wolves.

The chatter wants this to be such a meaningful game, but it’s no Newcastle 6-1 sad sack Stelliniball.

Could not be happier, COYS!
