Fair enough Mick, if that's how you feel.I really don't get this whole - who's got the biggest dick in football schtick.
The past is the past.
Its like me saying I'm harder than the 18 year old kid next door - because I would have been if I was still 18.
Football is all about now, the only history is this seasons league table.
Everything else is romance and dreams, in sporting terms.
To me what Spurs have achieved in the past is very important to me. Both the stuff I have witnessed at the ground(s) or on a screen, and indeed stuff I haven't witnessed such as the 1901 Cup Final(s), which for me are at the very core of our being. The league table of 1961 still gives me a very warm feeling, and contrariwise the hurt I suffered watching that Benfica game in 62 still gnaws away at me to this very day.
Indded, nothing that happens at St Mary's today, will come remotely close to being as important as that day in 78, where we played out a very handy draw that saw us promoted and Saints as Div 2 winners and left Brighton fuming at what was in their eyes a very 'convenient' result.
Had we not got promoted that season, Villa and Ardilles would never have happened, Hodd may well have left us and for better or worse where we are now would be very different.
