................. who can we laugh at?

From Guardian.co.uk

I met this really kinky girl last night. 'Humiliate me,' she said ... So I bought her a Tottenham shirt

Are Spurs beyond a joke? We don't think so - here are 25 reasons why the club's worst start to a season in their long and distinguished history is a laughing matter

Haringey council has blocked Tottenham's plans to build a new ground on Northumberland Park. A town hall source said: "We don't mind having a funfair there once a year, but a circus every fortnight is a bit much."

"I was playing Scrabble and had enough letters to make 'Tottenham Hotspur Football Club'. I was gutted when I found out it was only worth two points."

Tesco are releasing new Oxo cubes in Spurs colours. Customers are told to look out for laughing stocks.

A young boy goes to social services and tells them he has nowhere to live. "What about your parents?" asks the social worker. "No, they beat me," says the boy. "What about your grandparents?" says the social worker. "No, they beat me even harder!" says the boy. "Well ... where do you want to stay then?" replies the social worker. "Tottenham," says the boy. "They don't beat anyone.

· What do a toothpick and Tottenham have in common? They both have two points

Juande Ramos, shortly after another training session, comments to the head groundsman at White Hart Lane how impressive the pitch is looking. "It ought to," replies the groundsman. "We put 70 million quid's worth of manure on it every week."

I just went down to the newsagents and bought Tottenham Hotspur magazine. Thank goodness they had porn mags to hide it in.

· What does a Spurs fan do after he sees his team win? Turns off the Xbox

After leaving San Siro, Jose Mourinho was asked if he was going to help Spurs get out of their slump. He turned around and said, "No way, I ain't that special".

Apparently the entire Tottenham squad have been busy honing their skills playing the computer game Championship Manager. Sadly it seems Juande misunderstood and thinks they want to play for a Championship manager.

Contrary to what you may think, Spurs are the strongest team in the league at the moment. Sure, aren't they holding everyone else up?

What do the Premier League and a cowboy have in common? They both have spurs at their feet.

A man was found dead floating in the Thames, wearing a blond wig, full make-up, bra, knickers, suspenders and a Spurs shirt. Before informing the next of kin the police removed the Spurs shirt to save the family embarrassment.

What would an improved version of Spurs be called? Newcastle United.

Did you hear that Juande Ramos was clocked doing 169mph on the M1 coming back from Stoke? Apparently he was just so desperate for three points.

· Is it just me or are Spurs the team to beat this season? Everyone's at it.

A man is sitting in a pub with his Jack Russell dog one Sunday afternoon. The football results are coming up on the television in the corner: "Stoke City 2, Tottenham Hotspur 1," reads the announcer. Suddenly the Jack Russell jumps up and shouts out, "Oh, no, not again." The shocked landlord says, "That's amazing. Why did he say that when it was announced that Tottenham lost?" "Because he's a Spurs supporter," the dog's owner replies. The landlord then asks what the dog says when Tottenham win a match, to which the man replies, "I don't know. I've only had him six months."

When a groggy Vedran Corluka regained consciousness in the ambulance leaving the Britannia Stadium on Sunday he asked medical staff who he was. On being told he played football for Tottenham Hotspur he lapsed into a coma.

All trains through White Hart Lane have been cancelled due to a massive points failure.

What's the difference between Juande Ramos and a cowboy? A cowboy wears Spurs on his boots whereas Ramos is a crap manager.

What does THFC stand for? Tottenham Heading For the Championship.

A little boy gets £10 for his birthday and rushes down to the sports shop to buy the new football he has been desperate for. He gives the ball to the shopkeeper, who says, "Sorry, son, this ball is £20. You only have £10". The boy says, "OK, if you blindfold me and I can guess the name of the club on any ball, will you give it to me for £10?" He agrees and gives the boy an Arsenal ball. "I can hear cannons blasting, so it's an Arsenal ball." Next he gives him a Millwall ball: "I hear lions, so it's Millwall." Amazed, the shopkeeper says, "Get this and you can have it for nothing." The boy listens and says Spurs. The man asks if he's heard a cockerel. "No," says the boy. "It's going down."

What's the difference between Bigfoot and the Spurs defence? Bigfoot has been spotted several times.

Spurs have been forced to rename their ground "White Lane" because their "Hart" was surgically removed when Berbatov and Keane were sold.

Breaking news: Tottenham Hotspur have finally won a game. It was a friendly behind closed doors at non-league Walthamstow the other day. And if you don't believe us here is the proof (http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2008/10/21/3.jpg).

The press want us to hurt as much as possible, they want to wind us up, and they want us to turn on our club. Rather than do this, let us just laugh at ourselves and keep in good spirits.

right now everybody is having a good laugh at our club, and justifiably so. i think the best thing we can do is, rather than rise to it, take it on the chin and then if we do turn it around and achieve something, we will be under no obligation to show any magnanimity whatsoever and can be as smug as we like. But for now, i think it is best to just let it roll off our shoulders and show them that they cannot hurt us.

Posted these two on another thread to 'lighten the mood'

Coming up to panto season, Ramos is looking for a part in Cinderella. It is said that he is going for the part of the pumpkin, in the hope that it will turn into a coach.

The groundstaff at White Hart Lane have laid paper on the pitch for the next home game. Jaunde Ramos has enquired as to why they have done so, to which the groundsman replied, ''Because Spurs look good on paper''

It gets to a point where the media can't come up with any more crap again and soon it will all end.

Agreed. The Press will get bored soon enough when we start winning.

Why does it say its from the Guardian? Is it actually in there then? Because i've seen most of these on here forums. Pathetic.

The serious thing to do is to pin this up in the dressing room. The players need to see all this crap written about them.

I have endured years of watching more lows than highs as a Spurs fan, but this really takes the piss now. I am a grown man, but I have come close to actually punching a few Goons and Spammers recently, and over what? - a f*cking football club?! Its pathetic how this piece of shit team can ruin fan's everyday lives like this. As if the imminent recession wasn't bad enough hey!!!

I think the Newcastle one is the only joke that makes sense. The rest are either adapted old jokes suited for the occasion, or ultimately lame.

Some of those were pretty funny though the Newcastle one was painful. Heard most of those 2 years ago when West Ham were in the shit

If any Spammers give you any grief just put them in their rightful place;


Gianfranco Zola doesn't stand for nonsense. Last Saturday he caught a couple of fans climbing over the stadium wall. Absolutely filled with rage he grabbed them by the collars and said, "Get back in there and watch the game till it finishes!"


Robert Green is ill, so Zola offers to go shopping for him.
While in the local supermarket, he bumps into Ron Atkinson.
"Hey Zola, what in god's name are you doing here?"
"I'm getting a bag of potatoes for Robert Green"
"Sounds like a fair swap to me!"

Not surprised it was in the Guardian I wonder why they are enjoyng it so much? Still it's worth a laugh so lets laugh and remember, always remember, never forget who is laughing at us.Shame really because I used to buy the Guardian and Observer now I'll have to change.
I like the Corluka one"When a groggy Vedran Corluka regained consciousness in the ambulance leaving the Britannia Stadium on Sunday he asked medical staff who he was. On being told he played football for Tottenham Hotspur he lapsed into a coma."........But the punch line should have been, tell him he's Maradona and get him back on the fucking pitch.

i agree, stick all those on the dressing room wall, team talk done.

Oh and this is the kind of shit i'm getting via texts from 'mates'...

"they've found another week of Elizabeth Fritzl's diary..

Monday: Stayed in, dad came down and f**ked me.

Tuesday: Stayed in, got f**ked by dad.

Weds: Stayed in again, dad f**ked me doggy style.

Thurs: Stayed in again, dad f**ked me then came on my face.

Friday: Stayed in again, dad gave my arse a right pounding.

Saturday: went to watch Spurs play. Wish i'd stayed in!!


I just ignore it and Love Spurs even more.

COYS!

That Hitler You Tube clip was funny as.

It really is at that stage where you either laugh or go screaming to the nut nut house.

I hope I can laugh at the end of the season.

Their are 30 games left, they maybe laughing now but he who laughs last, laughs the loudest.

The most likely outcome is if we get it together we'll finish mid-table - i doubt we'll be laughing loudest this season thats for sure.
