Tottenham Hotspur

I’m cool with it, none of this is winding me up - it’s not like I can do anything about it.

There will still be a football club that I will get to go and watch 20 times a season and that’s good enough for me

Yeah, we can tell. You’ve only spent the last 3 months crying and whining on an Everton football club forum. A club that isn’t even a rival or involved competitively with you in any way.

At the end of the day your football club is a soulless corporate scab organisation that tried to piggy back into a Super League on the coat tails of 5 other clubs, two of which are allegedly your biggest rivals. It exists solely to empty the pockets of wealthy and middle class day trippers from every corner of the club except your own, you’ve betrayed your roots and betrayed the sport of football in pursuit of greed.

I already know this stings because all you ever have to come back with is some meaningless guff about trophies, but deep down you know your football club is a soulless corporate entity, a disgrace to the game. You wouldn’t be missed if you went bust, you are the little runt of the litter to the rest of the “big 6” and an absolute comedy sketch show to everyone else. Keep coming back and I’ll keep rinsing you you lil bish.
 
It’s a fixture that nearly always seems to fall fortunately for us though. We beat you 3-0 in the reverse under Thomas bloody Frank - our joint biggest win of the season.

We pencil Chelsea in as a guaranteed loss due to our record and Everton as at least 4 points - because that just how it nearly always transpires - admittedly it was just the2 points last year.

We also have a cracking record against David Moyes sides
Like a few games we lost heavy. If we got that early goal at home in 1st few mins as we could/should have, it may have ended different - We will never know. But we then fell to pieces. Like everything, the game may even end up meaning nothing on the day. Time will tell :lol:
 
Glad I stumbled on this, fun to read, I fancy joining in.

In my opinion, A.Villa going down was a bigger deal than spurs potentially going down, but the media made Newcastle going down the first time round a bigger deal than Villa because they were a media darling club due to Keegan.

Spurs are only bigger news because they're in London. If the club were based anywhere else it would be the same as the other two.

Not gonna argue about the bigger club, but they've always felt like a hipster team to support outside of London, not likely to go down, favourable media coverage but not successful enough to be labelled true plastic
 
Imagine boasting about being the richest club in the second tier like that’s something to be proud of.

And people say Spurs are a business first and a football club second. No, sorry, an NFL stadium second. Football club third.

Due to absolutely nothing football related either by the way, but due to having a load of boxing and concerts at your NFL stadium. Everything wrong with modern football.

Said it before

A) the fans were not supportive of it
B) these are the same owners that tried to relocate us to the East End
C) not sure why so many shots get fired at Spurs for this, it would have been a Euro competition - Spurs have 4 Euro trophies to Arsenals 1, we’ve won more Euro trophies than City.

I’m enjoying the banter, we’re slumming it and I’m making the most of it - when in Rome
 
Not at all, but we won a trophy with Solanke and not with Kane - funny how things work
Larry David - Ehhh.gif
Let’s not get ahead of ourselves here, lad… It’s the EL trophy. You’re also fighting relegation with Solanke, and not Kane.
You COULD have won the CL trophy with Kane, but your lot decided to rollover and let Herr Klopp and der mighty redmen tickle your belly. 🤷

Those ifs buts and maybes often fall our way in this fixture.

If we need to win to stay up - I’m sure a fortuitous penalty will fall our way

Wasn’t a boast, you’ve cropped that bit out. I was pointing out that it could be fun to go down for 1 season, buy the best players and bludgeon our way back up

Listen if there’s one thing you need to learn quickly here on GrandOldTeam.com, it’s that we weren’t born this morning. You’ve all been crowing about your “best stadium in the world” for the past 7 years, you can’t pull our wool over the eyes with this one. In fact you are on here TODAY bragging about how much money your club makes, now you want me to believe you’re against your owners and against the corporatisation of the club??

You’re a genuine embarrassment as a fanbase, you were all doing the Poznan in the ground when City beat you the other year. I actually think you’re possibly the worst fanbase in the entire league when you factor in everything, you’d sell your families for £2 to get invited into the Club World Cup. I’ll say it again, if you get the point where you’re relying on these wet flannels to try and drag you over the line you are royally screwed, Tarquin will be getting off after 40 minutes again and going to buy a Chelsea top.

Newcastle are not a big club and never have been - I will die on that hill.

Villa had been irrelevant for 2 decades when they dropped, no one really cared.

Spurs were Europa league winners last season, played Champions league this year - finished 4th in the Champions league table this year, played in the super cup, wereCL finalists in 2019. It’s huge - hence West Ham win a game of football and all anyone talks about is Spurs - because that is what happened

Yes, you’ll be able to have first pick of all the third-rate players from across the globe.

Mate, you’ll be less attractive than Coventry - and possibly even Millwall.
