What a day. Little write up for my 100th post chaps.
That was a proper North London Derby. Every aspect of it. Every pub I went in beforehand was absolutely packed, the "hunt" for Woolwich fans as everyone walked to the ground, the few scuffles, the intimidation they must have felt getting into the turnstiles whilst hundreds of Spurs fans bated them. Coins going back and fourth.
I was sat in block 35. They celebrated their goal quite well, nothing compared to other teams I've seen though. We didn't stop singing from the start. The team showed more backbone and honor after going 1-0 down than I think I've seen a Spurs team do before. They didn't bottle anything. The fans got louder and louder. "Everywhere we go". Abusing the scum next too us.
The second goal... wow. Every part of the ground was shaking. People in the West Stand on their seats. I was row 16, ended up about row 3. I hugged over 328 grown men on my way. The joy that I felt was something you can't write about. To be able to turn to the Woolwich fans and vent my venom was incredible.
After the game Harrys lap. Getting out onto the High Road and watching Woolwich desperately try and blend into the crowds. Few stragglers getting a dig. A proper moody hunting ground. I love everything about Spurs.
Tottenham till I die.

Feels sweeter by the moment. The Woolwich melt down is in full flow. Next they'll be screaming "Wenger out"...oh wait.So far, I've had, " we were lucky " " we only won because of their injuries" " ref won the game for us" " Mertersaker's was a stonewall penalty" " Kane's the most over rated player in the league"
The excuses this morning from the deluded Goons have been hilarious.
Anyone getting the same??
To the lad who said they are taking it well then let me tell you, I have never seen them so demoralised and pissed off.

LOL, touched on his little finger the giant 6'5 ft man went crashing to the ground.
Of the six Woolwich in close proximity to me only two have had the bottle to talk football to me. The other four have seemingly lost the power of speech. I love it.

By the time I had left the stadium and walked round to the Park Lane, they had all slunk away.What a day. Little write up for my 100th post chaps.
