Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
I think the past few years split the fanbase over managers and players too heavily. Plus, whether right or wrong, the dogshit being served up on the pitch left fuck all worth singing about.
We were going backwards, and I honestly believe the fanbase was left shellshocked from the feel good factor of that first 4th season, and CL run....not only that, but the immense entertainment our football was giving us at the same time.
The rug was pulled out from under us before we could blink, and factions set in...AVB this, Harry that etc etc etc.
Someone said it in another thread, but Poch is uniting the players, and the fans....people are not glory hunting by singing when things are looking up. It is simply a case of having our Spurs back, playing football the right way, and the overwhelming sense of pride most of us feel in doing it the right way, with a chairman who is a lifelong fan and a first team brimming with academy talent who are tearing teams like Chelsea and Woolwich to pieces.
When all is said and done, those among us who openly envy Chelsea and their Russian lotto ticket kind of have no right to bang on about lack of atmosphere. Plastic clubs come with shit, plastic fans.
Someone mentioned it last night, that the feeling of a win was 'in the air'... you could sense it...
So often, the NLD is a mixture of sickening nerves and consigned resignation... but yesterday was different... before, during and of course after! The whole ground was buzzing, and in the streets outside there was a sense of inevitability we'd win. Something i've never felt for a NLD.
The fans felt it... the players obviously sensed it... and thus it came to pass!
...if that's not an advert for positive thinking (and not negative bickering and bitching especially if ever we go a goal down) then I dunno what is!

Yes it was, I saw it.
Can someone tell me the words to the song sang at about 27 minute mark? Tyia
Well by that point, it should be; "....TOTTENHAM ARE GLORIOUS... LONG TO REIGN OVER US, GOD SAVE THE KING, LEDLEY... LEDLEY!"
But I fear it's probably summit else involving John bleedin' Terry!!
Yeah, the reporter is describing it as entering the stadium.
Even when we went 1-0 down I had that gut feeling that we would pull it back.
And I never get that during NLD games. I usually just feel sick and then we lose and then I feel even sicker.
Still #PochOut you tit?
I think one of the reasons it was sooooo loud was because there was predominately a song with no rude words or about kicking someone's head in......kids can join in without being clipped by a parent, and even an idiot can remember the words.
Even Spurs fans, more than 2 versions of " oh when the Spurs" can get a bit boring, but this song can go on for a long time without getting boring.
Bn1 about LFC, why ?i know one guy seriously considering IT from Kent,,but hasn't got a ticket, but would be probably easyish to collect

One of the things that has to be acknowledged is the stadium. It is, like Goodison and Anfield, becoming unique as the supporters are so close to the pitch, the intensity is ramped up like The Emirates, Etihad and others of its ilk simply can't achieve.
White Hart Lane has been both incredible and awful (which stadium hasn't) but I will miss days like Saturday as and when we do have a new stadium.

I was tempted but a 600 mile round trip on a Tuesday doesn't appeal to me at such short notice.
Just wondering what our support will be like up there. I know we got given 1,800'ish tickets and it went general sale (completely understandable what with our busy schedule, £55 match tickets, being midweek, etc) - so wondered if there would be people snapping the general sale tickets.. If someone you knows is keen I'd get them to bell Spurs, I'd be pretty confident there's still tickets available.
On the 12:07 from Euston myself, into Liverpool for just after 2 then I imagine I'll head down towards Albert Docks.
I'm thereochbye:
