This is a must win after Liverpool drawing and the Scum and Newcastle winning we need to take 3 points to keep our momemtum going. With no 'Arry on the touch line I hope the players go out and win it for him and show that they can do it no matter what !!!

Tottenham Hotspur overcame the absence of manager Harry Redknapp to seal a seventh win in eight league games.
Redknapp was missing as he recovered at home after undergoing heart surgery.
Gareth Bale was credited with the first goal after his powerful shot deflected off Chris Baird before Aaron Lennon's clinical finish doubled the advantage.
An own goal by Younes Kaboul, after Ledley King headed against his back, set up a grandstand finish but Jermain Defoe secured victory in stoppage time.
Redknapp's health will not exactly have been helped by a number of goalmouth scrambles in front of Brad Friedel's goal in the closing stages, but Defoe's clinical finish with virtually the last kick of the game made it a good day for the north London outfit, who moved level on points with Chelsea in the Premier League table.
Having scored 17 times in their previous seven league games, Tottenham have found goals easy to come by this season and they took the lead with their first noteworthy attack in the 10th minute.
Kyle Walker's burst down the right ended with a lay-off to Lennon, and his cross was pushed by Mark Schwarzer into the path of Bale.
The Wales international's powerful effort from an angle struck Baird, who could do little about stopping the ball cannoning off him into the net.
Fulham are now just one point above the relegation zone but it was a cruel scoreline for Jol's team.
At the other end Friedel had to be at his best to keep out efforts from John Arne Riise and Clint Dempsey.
Tottenham's hard-earned win was summed up by Scott Parker, who battled on after being caught by what appeared to be an accidental Steve Sidwell elbow in the 20th minute.
England boss Fabio Capello looked on concerned as England international Parker received lengthy treatment for a nose wound, but he was able to carry on.
Capello, however, will have been impressed with Lennon's finish on the stroke of half-time which put Spurs in command.
The winger, who has not played for England since the 2010 World Cup, exchanged passes with Bale and burst down the left before cutting inside the area, wrong footing Baird and firing across Schwarzer.
Fulham were not helped by the loss of Zdenik Grygera, who was given oxygen as he left the pitch on a stretcher with what appeared to be a serious knee injury.
But Jol's side showed spirit in the second half wtih Friedel producing a one-handed stop to keep out Brede Hangeland's 52nd-minute header before Kaboul's own goal gave the home side hope.
Kaboul was helpless as King's headed clearance from a corner cannoned off his team-mate and over the line in the 57th minute.
Fulham piled on the pressure in the closing stages.
In a chaotic goalmouth scramble, Kyle Walker appeared to handle the ball inside his own area while man-of-the-match Friedel again produced an excellent one-handed stop to deny Moussa Dembele.
In addition, Luka Modric making a clearance off the line to deny Dempsey.
Tottenham scored their third deep into stoppage time as substitute Defoe produced an excellent low finish from Emmanuel Adebayor's cut-back to wrap up the points.
Fulham's former Tottenham manager Martin Jol said
"I thought we deserved at least a point. Tottenham had three attempts on goal in the first half and scored two goals.
"We must have had 26 or 30 attempts after half-time. He (Friedel) was probably the best player on the pitch, but if you don't score then you have a problem.
"Of course I heard the applause from the Tottenham fans. But I don't want to make a meal of it. I'm happy here."
Tottenham winger Gareth Bale said
"It's always nice to score and keep the run going. I am claiming the goal. I've seen it a few times and it's definitely my goal.
"We knew how hard it was going to be. Fulham played very well and put us under the cosh, but we showed our character.
"In recent years we would have conceded more in the second-half , but we have belief in ourselves."

I have no idea what a DDOS attack is but it sounds a bit like a girl with large breasts attacking us? Is there any video of the attack as i would like to watch that one day?

God knows how we won that. We were battered for most of the game and still ran out winning  3-1 the margin of victory doesn't reflect the game at all. I guess thats the mark of a good side to play poorly and still have a comfortable win says a lot for the team.

How many times have you watched Man Ure, Chelski and the Woolwich Wanderers play a side that have absolutely battered them but come away with nothing.......... loads. It shows that we are now getting to the point where we take chances when we get them and also can hold onto a lead at long last. I really do believe that this group of players are special and are destined for greatness, and before anyone says anything this isn't just a flash in the pan thats 8 wins and 9 unbeaten home and away in the League !!!!!! That is the form of Champions, I hope we can keep it going, I hope we can keep the reserves for the Europa and keep the first 11 rested !!!!!

We only have 2 more Europa group games then it stops until about March I think. Cant see Harry using many of the first 11 in Europa unless we get to the quarter finals at least, and maybe not even then if we get a decent F.A cup run going.

Christmas has come early for Spurs. Hopefully they will be a few more presents left before the end of the year!
