Tottenham Hotspur

[msb]

After all our last minute escapes over the years, I’d still love Spurs to be relegated. One of only 6 ever presents in the EPL, be nice to make it 5!

Blackburn were relegated 4 years after winning the league. They were a huge club at that time. I meet far more West Ham fans when I visit London than spurs fans.

Can't think of a single thing that West Ham are bigger than Spurs for.

They’re gonna get away with it due to the bottom 3 being so bad AGAIN

Thats how we survived to be fair.

I don’t think the Blackburn part really washes to be honest

Blackburn lost their manager for 95/96 and had a limp title defence, before losing Shearer for 96/97, after which relegation was just a matter of time

They were a club that bought the league, and they almost botched that too and needed help from West Ham to do it. They weren’t seen as this big club that shockingly dropped

There’d been a consistent decline since 1995 that logically led to a relegation

I can't argue with anecdotal evidence like that. It must be true.

But If we are going on anecdotal evidence I will point out that WHU had 70k at their EC victory parade compared to our 225k at our EL parade.

For what its worth.

Will have to agree to disagree on that one. Would be the equivalent of liverpool going down now

Probably cos West Ham fans weren’t that arsed about winning one of the tin pot euro cups. More self awareness than most.

Just saying from experience. This is a forum for discussion after all.

Now I know you are taking the piss. WHU weren't bothered about winning the ECL? Brilliant.

I imagine EFC would opt out of competing in any Tin Pot European trophies right?

Let’s be honest Blackburn were never a big club, an old club sure and their heyday was funded by a rich fan.

Soon as he left the whole thing collapsed

Spurs are much bigger

lads I knew couldn’t give a fat one. There’s only one euro trophy. The rest is to keep smaller teams happy

 

[JimmyJeffers]

Apologies everyone. know this is boring reading. Didnt realise some fans would react so sensitively if you dare suggest another club might be bigger than theirs.

It just shows the bizarre thinking, if you've got a replacement sound, but if you are bringing in a pretty awful interim manager it's weird

Im guessing they want Poch back, but he's not available til after the world cup. So they picked up someone who has lots of experience with short term jobs in Europe assuming a new manager bounce would happen and take them clear but that looks to have backfired massively.

So does that go for our cup winners cup too?

I'd be buzzing if we won the conference league.
