Think your wrong there Dave Spurs won it in the sixties in the Blanchflower, Smith, Jones and White era

Could that be because United fans don't continually try to deny it?:rolleyes::rolleyes:

TOPSPURS - the world famous unofficial home of Spurs on the internet

Here's where I got the info

Anyway to get back on track, Robbed again ! Pretty poor showing first half despite going one up. As to the total miscarriage of a decision by the ref at the start of the 2nd half allowing Everton to equalise, then go on to knock in another I have to say Everton were the better team for the first 20 mins of the 2nd, then the Pool got their arses into gear & at least managed to pull out a draw, should really have been KD's first home win !

Nobody can BUY the title it takes more than just money, at United it money and Fergie, at Ewood it was Jacks Money Kenny and don't for get Ray Harford, at Arsenal money plus Wenger, if it was money alone City will win it every year for the foreseeable future as yet they don't look like winning once.;)

You are perfectly correct Jay, I seem to remember Sunderland trying to do that in the '50s - think i saw them at Ewood when Shackleton played, but it didn't work out - mind you that really is the dim and distant past:):):) P.S. Denis Irwin came from Oldham after their Cup run and £1M for Cantona, cheaper than S & S - either of them, what a buy. Arguably the most influential player for decades.:D

Okay it's 3 points, but when all's said & done, Wolves ? Not something to gloat about really, but as mentioned we'll take the points. :)

Now, now Jay, it may turn out like the last time we played Rovers, poor Dave would be devastated if that happens, mind you, I can't see that happening against the Scousers:rolleyes::rolleyes:;);):D:D

Seeing the last time they played us, they needed a extra player, Mr Webb, and had to reduce our side to 10 men.... And then the ALL POWERFUL, ALL CONQUERING Mancs could ONLY manage 1- nil.....
