    More attacks on Spurs fans.

    English football fans tend to be soft and genteel middle-class types nowadays who are petrified of their own shadow whereas in the past even if fans weren't hooligans they wouldn't be such easy prey for cowardly thugs. As such English fans are seen as easy pickings for European fans whose...

    The Europa League - Sh1t got real...

    Re: Europa league in vogue It was only ever Premiership clubs that displayed this attitude and a new breed of surly fan who grew up on a diet of Champs league hype and an attitude that Europa League was second rate but that Premier League clubs could win if they could actually be bothered...

    Andre Villas-Boas - Head Coach

    We were close to going 2-0 up when Lennon went through too and we still played better being positive than we did playing negatively against City. Hesitating only leads to awkwardness on the ball and a tendency to pass the ball sideways or backwards. In patches when we played with nothing to...

    Andre Villas-Boas - Head Coach

    I'd say El Tel was spot on actually. We certainly didn't take Arsenal to the sword in the North London Cup Final 91 by retreating into our shells and saying to ourselelves "We better not attack, it might make them angry!!!" As for all this nonsense about playing two strikers as some kind of...

    ***OMT- Tottenham Hotspur vs Emirates Marketing Project*****

    Re: Take not AVB - Emirates Marketing Project would have won with any " formation " City have been playing woeful, turgid dross of late. Ajax beat them and grabbed a point despite being in poor form themselves and Swansea played far better than us and with far more fluidity despite the fact we pinched one of...

    Andre Villas-Boas - Head Coach

    It's also the philosophy that is the cornerstone of our football club. Terry Venables didn't enter White Hart Lane saying "There's something magical about this club" because we have a history of playing football like a castrated Wimbledon or neutered George Graham era Arsenal.

    Andre Villas-Boas - Head Coach

    What nonsense. Swansea have a far inferior team but still managed to play the game with fluidity on the counter. Ajax got the better of City over two games and so has every other team in their group. They looked ordinary against West Ham and lifeless against us. We decided from early in...

    Andre Villas-Boas - Head Coach

    We were awful. I can take losing but I can't take this negative rubbish. Anyone with half a football brain could see that City were there for the taking today. Truth is Swansea passed the ball much better when they went up there and though that game was almost as dour they can count themselves...

    The final straw?

    Because he's not at Swansea anymore and replacing our most creative players with a load of mid-table dross is only going to result in a tail off in level of performance. Look at the team sheet. Losing games 1-0 at home to Wigan is hardly a surprise with the quality of player we have on the...

    The final straw?

    For me the club has brought this on itself. They treat fans like dirt, overcharge them and mug them off at every opportunity. All through the transition to tedium stressing the point that football was becoming the place for a "better breed" of fan. Well we all know that was a load of old tosh...

    I remember a time when...

    It's true and it is sad. Remember laughing when it was happening to the Gooners in the 90's but it is just the reality. Especially with rising living costs it is simple economics to most that watching the game down the boozer with a bit of a laugh and an atmosphere beats sitting in a ground...

    I remember a time when...

    Not to the extent where there isn't even one scouse accent in the whole bar. Let's remember why alot of these clubs were formed. I've got nothing against football being inclusive to all demograhics but when it goes so far towards appeasing one demographic of supporter at the expense of squeezing...

    I remember a time when...

    Anfield, when was the last time you went to Anfield? Last time I went to a pub in the Anfield Road end it was full of fans from Reading, Surrey and Scandanavia. It's not primarily a Spurs problem but rampant commercialisation has infected football with a new breed of fan. It would be silly to...

    I remember a time when...

    And might I also add that with the economy going down the plughole in 2008 saw alot of die hard Spurs who were growing disilluioned and who were struggling financially to stop clinging on and throw in the towel. The knock on effect has been there for all to hear in a lack of atmosphere at the...

    I remember a time when...

    The atmosphere inside the ground started to go downhill in the late 90's and in the mid-00's it began to deteriorate to almost pitiful levels apart from the biggest games. I could list you 100 people that were hardcore Spurs who no longer go regularly if at all right off the top of my head. The...

    Is the Premier League still the best league in the World?

    Well we did go into decline since 1991 that's just a fact of life. Winning the League Cup aganst Chelsea was probably the best of it we had in the 00's but we all know the FA Cup to Spurs fans means more, it would be silly to pretend otherwise. It always has to me even though winning a League...

    Is the Premier League still the best league in the World?

    Swap Christiano Ronaldo for Hoddle, Waddle or Gazza though and we could all say similar things. For a long time Beckham was the idol of English football simply because he had the ability to cross a ball, something considered a standard pre-requisite for getting into even the boy scouts side...

    I remember a time when...

    One thing that I do recall is that qualifying for Europe at all was something that was greeted with wild celebrations. Now the obsession with the Champs League has kind of diluted the impact. Thought we had a pretty good team the year we had Klinnsman, Barmby and Sheringham firing on all...

    OMT - TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR VS southampton

    Our biggest problem second half of the season was scoring goals. And you don't think Cisse would not have got in ahead of Saha? Behave :ross: No way of knowing. Course there is, it's called a football brain and you judge by the form a player is in at the time. One thing there was of knowing...
