Funny..! Do I remember the relegation....I remember winning the double in the 60's. I was a nipper but I remember my dad taking me to Wembley for the cup final when (I think) we beat Leicester 2-1. I seem to remember also beating Burnley 3-1 for some trophy.
Thanks for the encouragement Sammy. I see you have detractors of your own but you battle on regardless and I shall follow your example.
Spurs have been my team for over 50 years and whatever happens, I'll always be backing them, regardless of Levy, Poch, Mourinho, bad patches etc. Let's hope they pull their collective fingers out tomorrow and spank Belgrade. Unfortunately I'm working all day so I shall miss it but I'm counting on the lads pride to carry them through.
Exactly mate, makes me laugh those trying to determine the level of someone’s support based on them being angry at how shit we are.
Makes no sense.
All Spurs fans should be raging right now, whether it’s at Levy, Poch or the players doesn’t matter, but apathy isn’t support.
It just means they don’t care enough to get upset.
When Poch, Levy and Kane are no longer here, we will be.
The only thing I hero worship is the badge.
You have no mates

He's right. I'd far prefer to watch really good football even if the results aren't always in our favour than watch the present team lumbering around like a bunch of middle aged men and maybe sniffing a far off trophy.
Squealing shitgoblin , Squealing shitgoblin , Squealing shitgoblin , Squealing shitgoblin , Squealing shitgoblin , Squealing shitgoblin !
You're so full of hot air and shit that if you get hiccups you could fertilise Yorkshire from the same spot
Another bitter, twisted, bastardised crock of total and utter lying shit
At my age, I might not be here either...
Trust me Poch goes before you do.....At my age, I might not be here either...
Coming back to this John, I've been wasting my day digging into PL teams accounts.
On average, during our teams PL era, we've retained £24.5m on average in profit every season, Leicester have retained an average of £33.175m since they've been back in the PL.
Leicester City
30 June 2018 - £1.5m (PL)
30 June 2017 - £80.0m (PL)
30 June 2016 - £20.1m (PL)
30 June 2015 - £31.1m (PL)
What do you make of the fact that Leicester and their so called ambitious owners actually keep hold of more PL profit on average, year on year than Spurs do?
Lauding Leicester’s owners in one thread and cunting off Brendan Rodgers in another
You keep getting involved with an argument not involving you & keep missing the point. They aren't saying he did well for 3.5 years.A company hires a person to do a job.
Said person does job well for 3.5 years.
For the last 1.5 years the person does a poor job.
The person who hired him should be fired???
I am making the point based on them saying poch has been shit for us & been a failure as he didn't win us any trophies. As well as them listing 101 reasons why poch is a crap manager.
So based on this logic, enic picked a crap manager who has performed shit & now they refuse to sack him.
You're probably best not replying to my posts as you jump in without knowing the whole picture.
Glad we agree.
Poch did bring some good style of football to White Hart Lane for a while..... but sadly no Silverware.....
the current players have peaked to his way of playing and can offer no more..... and so the cycle begins again
to try to build a team to entertain.... I believe Spurs can build on the style Poch brought so as to push forward
but unless Spurs are willing to spend the hundreds of millions it will need for them to win the top Silverware
which they wont and I dont blame them..... so lets just enjoy watching our team in a new stadium in the hope that we can do a Leicester........ C O Y S

Under ENIC we have been in FIVE cup finals, though. And been close enough in more than a few campaigns to have had a sustained title challenge.
Levy and ENIC haven’t supported the team as much as they could, that’s clear. And as an investment company, we know what their true motivation is. But let’s not pretend that we couldn’t have achieved more over the years.
There are multiple semi finals in that time that we lost, too. We’ve fallen short on the pitch as well, and that’s on the players and management.
5 cup finals in what is it 18 years or so that they've watched over us? At what stage do fans start to hold the players accountable for not having the nous to get it over the line? Under ENIC we've seen more European football than at any stage in our history but that'll get overlooked as well.
