As we all know it's the final game of the season tomorrow. Plenty of ups and downs throughout the course of this season but after the first two games I think plenty would have taken the position that we face at 3PM tomorrow against Fulham. At one point it seemed as though we might challenge for the title, but a multitude of factors has meant that we surrendered our 10 point lead to the Gooners. We can still climb above them, though.
Anyway, the purpose of this thread is to just say that no matter what happens tomorrow - we have to send the team off well. That means supporting them for 90 minutes, regardless of the scoreline. Too many times in the last few years have we been getting behind the team when the scores are even, and changing our tune when we go a goal behind. At Villa on sunday, plenty around us were more than happy to sing when the scores were level - but resort to name-calling, frustrating remarks towards the players etc when we went 1-0 behind. It's ridiculous quite frankly. If you're not prepared to get behind the team when we're in a losing position then you shouldn't be a football fan. No point riding the crest of the wave when times are good, and changing your tune when we look like we might lose. I know all football supporters are different, but some people really take it to the extreme. Like the bloke behind me at the Leeds home game a few seasons back that wouldn't celebrate a Tottenham goal simply because Crouch had scored. ****.
Anyway, if you're going to the game tomorrow - get behind the team. Don't stop doing so until the final whistle. Some may think that it doesn't make a difference, but it really does. We have to remember that the season isn't over until that whistle is blown. Even if it's 1-1 in the 4th minute of injury time - we can still get a goal and finish 4th, or potentially 3rd.
Stay until the final whistle, and clap the players round the pitch afterwards.
Come on You Spurs. I'll see you lot in the Bell & Hare (I'll be the tall geezer most likely falling over his own feet).
