some interesting Footage from a spurs fan at Sundays game - worth a look - good for examination.

zoom forward to 5min20sec for the start of play



as from 7mins50secs....Spurs played onside and in on goal - What was he thinking !

[oldcolner]

I guess he thought the player .Son? was offside, .. which he was, the flag goes up and he walks away up field. Tarks was in there to put him off too.

You can see the one I'm referring to around 14.40"although not very clearly, the ball is cleared on our right, picked up by a Spurs player and Erikson puts his hand up for the ball on their right wing. Brady is walking towards the half way line, totally oblivious to the fact that Erikson is unmarked and about to be played in behind him. I can only assume he's unaware we've lost possesion and has switched off, thinking we still have the ball.

Brady broke from a strong back line and moved toward goal....putting Son "onside" and forcing Tom into making a save. When he saw Son move he realised his mistake...and made an effort to return to line and land the trap - but it was too late - Son was in on goal - linesman flagged offside but got it wrong, as was commented on during the match (see image) - Brady had no reason to make the move.

Brady started the walk when the corner landed in the box Sinkov....the ball was cleared but only into the mix - and still he's walking...Eriksion was left alone - and yes, raises his hand, Brady has his back to him....the ball is floated over and Erikson makes the run for it....Brady just turns and raises his arm - why....he didn't see anything - and again - Tom was called on to make the save.




so on at least two occasions....he put us at serious risk of conceding goals - but saves the day with the Wood assist...Lucky Lad....he scores a 6.
