Is Champions League qualification possible?

Ok so Ill admit that I have gone slightly AWOL with this blog of late - a hectic work schedule and a lot of preparation for my new career has led to this taking a back seat unfortunately. For those of you who do like to read this blog then apologies all round.

Anyway back to the question in hand. The last few weeks have been a mixture of elation, disappointment and frustration - just a day in the life of being a Spurs fan really. I last wrote in the build up to the Stoke game - this put an end to our winless streak as we done them 3-2, tight game but the result is what counts!

Next saw our exit from The Champions League at the hands of Real Madrid - a fantastic home performance only let down by Gomes' buttery fingers. As angry as I was at him for this we were always going out and as Harry said 'he has been fantastic for us this season' so I cant slag him off for it too much. This was obviously much different among the rest of you, Ive seen some pretty horrendous things said about him over the last couple of weeks but I wont go into that now.

Looking forward to Stoke

The telly was getting a heavy volly of abuse at this moment
Hands up if you felt pretty dejected on Wednesday morning...Yup same here.

A game that promised so much fell apart pretty quickly and ended up 4-0 to 'Los Blancos', Crocuhies sending off on 14 minutes pretty much sealed it for us. We fought well but holding out for 75 minutes with 10 men away from home at The Bernabaeu was always going to be a bloody hard task.

A night out at The Bernabéu

Another disappointing result at the weekend. More dropped points against the bottom clubs. Despite what many yido's are saying at the moment fourth spot is certainly not out of our grasp yet, we still have a game in hand on City and we have to play them soon.

However it does mean that we need to start pulling the finger out very soon, no more excuses and no more dropped points. The games we have left now are even more crucial than before and so we need to come together as a team and make it happen.

Tonight could be the very catalyst for that, in what has been described as the biggest game of our history (not sure about that but definitely of the last 20/30 years) we travel to The Estadio Santiago Bernabéu or The Bernabéu to you and I.
Real Madrid in the quarter finals of The Champions League is quite an occassion and so the boys must be on top form if we are to come out with a good result! The kind of performance against AC Milan away would be just the trick, however even with that its going to be a difficult one.

Wigan away, a desperately needed three points!

Well apparently no-one listened to my blog post yesterday as it has emerged today that Hutton has done his knee and will be out for around four weeks. Fantastic. Just what we need at the moment - yet another name on the injury list.

Well lets try and put that one behind us for the time being and look at Wigan tomorrow. This really is a 'must win' game! That phrase is said too often at the moment but we desperately need to get three points under our belt, we haven't won in our last three games so it is vital that we can pick up a win. Bloody vital.
