Part of the matchday experience, for me anyway is a wee visit to mr ladbrokes, now I'm sure I'm not alone in this ritual it seems quite popular with the masses with fans of all clubs! Not just Tottenham! But for me that's where it goes tits up my heart rules my head 100% I've got Tottenham at the the very least a draw, NEVER ever put them down to get beat no matter who the opposition is, again I'm sure I'm not alone in this? But I've set bets I put on,they are not all random! I'm not putting on a furtune just what I can afford like the majority! Standard bet is Tottenham to win 3-1,single! Score cast Eriken,3-1 plus 1st scorer! Last season had a couple of quid on Tottenham to win 5-1 on the majority of games got it once v Bournemouth, thought the shitty game was on as well, but no! Does anyone make a fortune betting on Tottenham? Cos I don't!!

If it's that much of a routine for you, then do yourself a favour and make the bets on Betfair instead - you'll get better odds every time, I guarantee (and no, I don't work for them)

As long as you use the exchange. The odds there are fantastic. But the sportsbook is shite.
 
A flutter always makes the game more interesting. I've had a few decent wins over the years. 300 odd quid on Bale first scorer and correct score against Norwich a few years back comes to mind. Reckon I probably break even at least.

We're a safe bet to give a good few teams a hiding on the basis of the last couple of seasons so the crazy scores are worth a punt.

My go to back in the day was Spurs winning half time, opposition winning full time. Always used to put that on against Utd. Make the inevitable capitulation a bit more bearable.

I had a tenner on each way for us to win the league at 80-1 last season. Put it on in November. If the finals days result wasn't bad enough.... I stood to win a good few hundred quid. Fuck.... It's all coming flooding back....
 
I know a gooner who always bets against them every single game...the abuse he got in the Invincible season almost made up for it...he lost a bundle.

I know a guy, liverpoo fan who bets on us every single game as a jinx just to wind me and a few others up, he has had to go watch last game of season for last 2 seasons in a spurs shirt after another bet that they will finish higher than us - so his jinx ain't too good apart from winning him a little last year
 
I always used to bet on us to win 4-3 because it was 100-1, think I only ever won once. I don't bother now, watching a game is stressful enough, without the added pressure of losing money. TBH I only tend to bet on the Grand National.
 
At half time during the Inter friendly an advert came up from bet fair I think saying 9-1 Delle Ali to score next goal.
I thought I'll have a tenner on that.
Then the phone rang and I got sidetracked.
Ali scored.
Only time I won anything betting on Spurs in Stadium was Spurs v Crystal Palace in the 90's and Spurs V Chavs AVB era.
I did first golascoer and correct score separately both.
CP 2-1 Spurs Gazza score first. Gazza scored first and it was 1-1 and Paul Stewart missed a fucking sitter form 3 yards out at the death.
The other was 1-0 spurs. Pavlyuchenko to score first he did, and then Gomes fluffed it for me about 15 mins from the death. Chocolate wrists form Drogba shot.
Both wins covered the day out, but could have been so much better
