Tottenham Hotspur: "To Dare Is To Do"

Robinson sidelined with calf strain

ENGLAND goalkeeper Paul Robinson will miss Tottenham Hotspur's Barclays Premier League match against Newcastle United on Tuesday morning (AEST) after sustaining a calf strain.

Robinson sustained the injury during England's Euro 2008 qualifying defeat in Russia yesterday, and Spurs boss Martin Jol admitted he would not recover in time for his club's trip to St James' Park.

"Paul was assessed ... and it showed that he had picked up a calf strain while on England duty that will prevent him playing for us," Jol said.

Robinson, 28, has been in poor form for club and country this season, and he has been criticised for his role in Russia's winner in Moscow.

how bad does a guy have to play before he gets dropped, this could be a blessing in disguise

Cracks opens the Champagne, Cerny has a big opportunity now to keep him outa the team though doubt it goin on quotes on his love for Robbo

Damn luck! You get no Robbo and we get no RVP!n What is this sh*t!

Damn luck! You get no Robbo and we get no RVP!n What is this sh*t!

A damn good weekend go Bolton!

 

[Dragooner]

But they are without Anelka...so a sort-of win for us. But it's a danger game! Boys better not take it easy...

 

[Macca_]

We'll be right. Our new striker signing (who was half the price of Bent just quietly) will get the job done.

don't tell me your'e suggesting we paid too much for this bench warmer

 

[Dragooner]

How could he mention anything like that. You must be getting the wrong message Twiz...

 

[Macca_]

Yeah, wasn't implying anything. Just noticed the maths... 16m and 8m - twice as much

 

[Deacon]

I like Boltons record against you guys mind u its at the modern library suppose ill throw some money at the draw

 

[Macca_]

A point tonight will mean 69 to go after this weekends matches.

 

[Twizzle]

we cant possible get any worse

 

[Tom Shines]

Berbatov looked real happy to be there.
Maybe he should team up with his other Bulgarian mates, Petrov and Bojinov.

Do you take cash?

 

[Twizzle]

he's already said he will not leave this year, if Jol leaves he could end up staying past this year

I guess at some stage Bent had to be given a full game and this was it , but he didn't look very confident attacking the ball

 

[Macca_]

What are you lot doing. I backed the draw

Lucky you've played Derby

 

[Twizzle]

there's hope yet Macca, still got Wigan to go

although the way we are playing, it could be a close game

 

[Deacon]

good god pre season the expectations i thought werent fair off the mark honestly thought another uefa cup finish was the outcome at this rate looks like a mid table finish at best this is poor and $18m for bent gees i wish that was spent on a decent central defender

 

[RedVGooner]

martin jol's only great signings have been Berbatov n Bale but the rest of his signings have been poor!

anyways how long does he have to save his job?

 

[Twizzle]

Kaboul has been good also but we've also got about $10mill in the lower grade an he wont give them a run word is because he didn't agree with their signing

 

[Dragooner]

Aah, what's that smell, that would be the scum in the drop zone, no sweeter smell!

 

[steven_tiger]

Still got 28 games to go SD.

Win all 28 and that's 91 points and most likely a Championship.
