A chorus of "it's happening again" rang out around the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday afternoon as Callum Wilson's injury-time winner condemned hapless Spurs to yet another home defeat against West Ham - one that pulls them even closer to a relegation scrap. Enjoy the fifth, the vitriol and the fury as Spurs fans once again fail to come to terms with losing to Nuno Santo's side in the latest edition of the OV...
Pre-match
"Two MASSIVE Cup Ties in a week for the Hammers... the 3rd Round of the FA Cup and the Cup Final itself this Saturday. For us, I'm just proud to he there, and will enjoy our day out at Wembley Hart Lane. Free hit against the Cup finalists who must be massive favourites! I'm joking of course... We can ridicule them all we want about this fixture, but Make no Mistake THIS IS OUR CUP FINAL! This ain't even MUST win... It's WIN OR GET FUCKED!"
- 1882
"For me it's absolutely imperative that Spurs win this one. If West Ham win this they will start to think that they could stay up. Kick their ass, lay the boots, embarrass them. It's a must win for me."
- Vinnygur
"If we lose this against them it'll make the atmosphere from that infamous Lucas Moura match which ended Nuno seem like a kids party."
- JimothyCF14
"I don't see ANY possibility of not winning. West Ham are a Champo team who happen to be playing in the PL at the moment. 3-0 at the barest minimum..."
- Spaniel
"This should be our easiest game of the season. Three-up by half time, please."
- VonnegutBusy
"So this has become the highlight of my season... relegating these cunts."
- holloway spurs
"We never know what we're going to get from West Ham. There are plenty of times when they've had a terrible run of form and suddenly put in a performance against us. They love to show us up. It's what they live for."
- Kid Chameleon
"I don't know how people are so confident that we will win this comfortably, haven't they seen us for most of this season? If we lose this, it will be a near disaster and I want Frank gone."
- Mrs Perryman
"I honestly rate Jarrod Bowen and to wipe the shit arse eating grin off the Dyer Family AGAIN would make it 10/10! Imagine it!"
- Guy From The Lane
"We are both so shit we will both lose four-nil."
- Ed Vanderlay
In game: first half (West Ham score)
"Don't know why I'm always optimistic before games, I should know better. Awful football. We may still win but get Frank gone tonight, we're gonna get fucking relegated with him."
- Kaz Hirai
"West Ham one-nil up. Fuck me, if we lose this we are fucked."
- Aphex
"Underdogs, they said."
- Ttonite
"Wow, we are truly shit. To be almost 2-0 down to shitty Hammers. Frank is really something."
- glacierSpurs
"West Ham all over us. This is more embarrassing than I thought it could be."
- MCSpurs
"Two well matches teams so far, laugh out loud!"
- McCOYS
"Summerville is a quality player. Far better than anyone in our team."
- SA96
"Don't do this against this lot."
- 8andA1/2Peppers
"Thomas the wank engine."
- Nudger48
"Shit owners, shit manager, shit players, shit football. It’s just all shit."
- AudereEstFacere
In game: Second half (Tottenham level)
"Get in, Romero. Great header and cross."
- scott
"We are shit but so are they. COYS."
- KingstonSpur
"Yay. I guess."
- GOAT
"Thank fuck we scored but now win this and then sack Frank. If the board keep him regardless of result, they are fucking incompetent cowards."
- Aphex
"Finally. Now they will crumble."
- Sir Ledders
In game: Second half (VAR, Wilson scores)
"I genuinely feel like we get fucked by VAR/Refs a lot, but it's probably just confirmation/selection bias. That handball today [by Scarles] was clear as anything, they fucked us. Fuming."
- TottsAmazeballs
"Have a look at the VAR/Ref decisions against us this season. No way is this just incompetence, no fucking way."
- kingdawson
"Referee (Jarrad Gillett) cheated Spurs today and maybe cost Frank his job."
- Gobbygonk
"Wait, wait, wait. I'm literally on the bus coming home from the game and just watched the highlights. How the fuck did VAR decide that wasn't handball?"
- kingdawson
"How on earth is that deliberate hand touch by Scarles not a penalty? Fucking corrupt."
- River Lea Banks
"Is a draw the worst result here? Keeps Frank in the job and does fuck all to get us up the table."
- Contrast
"West Ham have scored."
- Aphex
"Doesn’t really matter at this point by why is that not a foul on Wilson? He’s mugging Vicario. They 100% would disallow a goal for Spurs in that situation. This league is a joke."
- Leviathan
"A soon as Wilson came on, we all knew what was going to happen."
- Spud-u-Like
"Fuck off Frank and take that useless twat Vicario with you."
- Spudulike
Post-match
"Genuine horror and disbelief. Absolutely disgusting and disgraceful result. You just can’t allow something like this to happen. The one glimmer of light this season was West Ham fucking off to where they belong. We’ve basically reignited their season and utterly humiliated ourselves at the same point. Every player, coach and member of staff should be sacked. Fold the fucking club. Kill this fucking modern shitshow of a club with fire."
-- Legacy Lilywhite
"A very SPURSY, DR TOTTENHAMY result and performance all rolled in to one. Absolute banter club. Zero points from nine against our three biggest rivals.., Tottenham get battered, everywhere we go. FFS. ENIC out. Frank out."
-- Tottenham Massive
"Remember when WHU getting relegated was the only good thing about our season?"
-- KingstonSpur
"Just got in. I’m now punch drunk with this shambles, I felt nothing today. Got to Waterloo with three minutes to get my train, just made it after a personal best which left me breathing out of my arse, get a seat and think I’m sorted. Cue two brain dead, very loud Spammers sit down with the biggest, smelliest bag of McDonald’s shite in England. The perfect end to a perfect fucking day."
-- Arthur Wensleydale
"We’re really bad — and, no, it’s not just the last two managers. We didn’t make West Ham look like world beaters, they were mostly shit too although I thought their new signings looked okay but the rest was the same crap and it took a deflected goal and a scramble to win."
-- JackJones’Locker
"I still can’t quite believe that we lost to one of the Worst West Ham teams I’ve seen."
-- Furball man
"This whole season is a write off. If we can’t see off a shite p*key team that are floundering and we’re at home then I’m sorry, but it’s all on Frank at this stage. Needs to go right now and get any fecker in to sort us out. I just can’t believe that our current squad, light as we are , can’t do better than this. This isn’t Tottenham, not my Tottenham anyway."
-- Ballyhack Spur
"The worst West Ham side since they were last relegated. And we put in that performance. It is beyond reprehensible, beyond disgusting, beyond despicable… heads must roll - starting with Vinni [Venkatesham] Shambles falling on his sword. Gooner maggot troll cunt."
-- Legacy Lilywhite
"We can go down. If we can't beat West Ham at home, where will our remaining points come from? Saddest part of losing today, is that we offered Hammers a fraction of hope to stay up. Six pointer game, and we blew it."
-- SpursUpNorth
"These games of football we keep losing. Fucking hell! We are shit, but we're not THIS shit, surely?"
-- Gmspurs
"Past few weeks I’ve essentially just been un feeling about this team. After today, I’m furious. Now we’ve had one million different, unacceptable results but this one right here is at the top for me. This man is playing at home against relegation fodder and to come out in that first half like that, get out of my club. Pretty much everyone top to bottom get out."
-- CT1882
"Disgraceful, really. We let them cut us open in the first half and showed in the second half we were actually capable of completely nullifying them. But of course it was too late by then and they end up winning it at the end anyway."
-- Rafa
"West Ham fully deserved the win. They should have been three-up at HT. A bit of a rally in the second half doesn't change anything. Terrible football from beginning to end."
-- postbox
"West Ham's highest XG in any away game since August - insidse 45 minutes. That right there is a stackable offence. You telling me EVERY OTHER manger West Ham have faced this season have the measure of them, EXCEPT FRANK? THE GOBLIN NEEDS TO FUCKING GO NOW!"
-- 1882
"I knew we were bad but losing to that lot is unforgivable. They got up for there [sic] cup final and we wilted."
-- Sir Ledders
"How can you lose to this team? I mean! They didn't even put any kind of football sequence. Omg!"
-- Hoddle2Waddle
"I can't remember a Spurs side so bad at the basics. You don't need a manager to tell you to pass and move and play a few triangles. It's fucking basic, under 11s shit. Static bunch of cunts all shirking responsibility. All getting 100k a week and can't move in to a bit of space to receive the ball and fucking turn or play forward. This squad is absolutely pathetic."
-- Yiddy
"Anyone thinking that we won't go down needs to wake up and face reality, especially the coaches, the players and especially the board. How do we make EVERY shit team look like world beaters... or is it just that we are the shit team?"
-- Mrs Perryman
"I am totally sick of this Dr. Tottenham. Another Saturday ruined!"
-- Trimpler
"Thomas Frank? I think Anne Frank could do better right now..."
-- 1882
