They say a good old tactical draw is invaluable, problem is, I think that phrase was coined during a time of 2pts for a win.....
Sure, if we had drawn some of the defeats we had this season we would be within sniffing distance at the top of the league, likewise if we had drawn some of those games we fought to the death to win then we wouldn’t even be in the top 4...
As for the Dembele business, that was a damn good deal for us....
Like it or not we have limits, and shouting and screaming about them won’t suddenly grow money from trees....
Never in my time as a Spurs fan (40 odd years) have I ever entered a season thinking we're better than all the other clubs and anything less than XY or Z is failure.
We can guess every Pre season what we need and how much we need to spend to get it, but at the end of the day it’s just that, guessing, i havnt a clue what we have in the bank, what our wage structure is or what debt we have...
What I do know however, is what a season ticket costs and what following this club costs annually and I know that price does not reflect the rewards on the field compared to other clubs, but I’m old and mature enough to acknowledge it’s a life choice, I can accept it or walk away from it, for now I choose to accept it, but at some point I know I will walk away and pass that baton on to the next generation and suffer and celebrate from the armchair with equal content and disappointed all in the same season....COYS
