What our opponents' fans are saying

See, i was on the fence with it as i can see both sides of the argument, however, where MkY started his post with "I disagree" and then presented his reasoning, whereas you call his outlook "idiotic", claim to be significantly experienced (i'm not calling you a liar but Internet, so claims = zero credibility) in this field, insult some more, but never actually explain why you consider him all them names.

As you say you have "significant experience in psychgology", is there no scope whatsoever to view it as attention seeking? Do you, or whichever clinic you work at, take every single "fuck it, gonna kill myself" uttered when the full time whistle goes and we've been tonked seriously? What about the hangovers that make me want to tell everyone i'd rather dig my own eyeballs out with plastic forks? Should that be given 100% credence and, if anyone laughs, suggests i'm attention seeking etc, then i should rip into them without a single shred of explanation, other than "I have experience in this shit".

I know someone who stuck a knife in their own arm & leg, screaming they were going to kill themselves - i asked them flat, if you were actually going to do it, why stick it in your arm/leg? Why not straight in the chest or face? Few seconds later, sobs of tears, no, there was no intention to kill themselves, despite all the drama and neighbours and shit getting involved, it was... attention seeking. Attention seeking which (and i'm no amateur psychologist here, but i'm sure we can find one if we dig around enough) could well be both a symptom AND a catalyst for the suicidal thoughts/threats etc.

You can't declare in a forum, in one post, someone's state of mind or the circumstances surrounding it, just as much as you can't confidently claim that the dudes suicide threat was genuine or attention seeking. Now i think about it, any shrink that would dare diagnose that either way without even meeting the guy is probably not that great a shrink. Or has tickets to the match or he's on a promise with the receptionist and needs to cut that consult short.

Dude, wind it back in a bit, have a debate instead of declaring other people idiots off hand, eh?

Anyway, back on topic - I just asked another Woolwich fan what he thought of the results yesterday - i had such an enjoyable conversation with my IT-gooner mate earlier, figured it's a bridge building day.

He stuck two fingers up and blew a raspberry.

Guy's a dick.

Can someone please remind me when was the last time this massive club won anything big ??

You really have to wonder just how big this lot think they are

I know a lot of Spurs fans and absolutely all of them are just as bothered by us as we are by them, it's hard to describe why, growing up I never really disliked spurs, the dislike only came from meeting so many spurs supporters in my adult life who hated west ham, were overly arrogant and cocky when they won and brushed it off as our cup final when they lost. The p**** thing is hilarious, especially seeing as the west ham fans I know are far more educated than they are.

All Spurs fans I know are bipolar, when they win a few they are the best team in the league, they lose one and they are getting relegated. This team they have now and the manager they have are so consistent that it has made the bipolar supporters only show their cocky optimistic side yet all they can do in that situation is try to ram it down west ham fans' throats, they weren't doing that to their arsenal mates until this weekend now that they have opened up a small gap.

All I have seen on social media is how they are dismissing our game as being difficult, they think they will walk over us and are already looking ahead to arsenal on Saturday, I really hope both us and Arsenal derail them this week. They have an horrendous run in compared to the other clubs and it would be great to see them have their best season in years only to be topped by Leicester

Their tails are up and they're playing some lovely football at the moment. Add to that they've got a realistic shot at being champions.

Heart says a Payet hat trick and a three nothing thrashing.

I'd be happy with a highly disputed penalty six minutes into injury time and Noble to convert and earn us a draw with them going on to miss out on the title by two points.

Head says 1-3 with them dishing out a lesson in how to play "the West Ham Way" and resultant cries for the Two Daves to sell up to a consortium of Oligarchs because we've never had it so bad.

Just the fact that they are obsessing about our supposed obsession, just shows how unintelligent most users of that cock forum are. Comparing tottenham related subjects on here to West Ham related gibberish there, and it's not even close.
Paranoid arse licking schoolboys is probably the most accurate description of that bunch.

They have overperformed this season imo, and player for player we are certainly no worse off. They have been lucky with injuries and their squad players have raised their game with the momentum. Hell even Dembele have risen from the dead, Chadli seems to be hitting his best form and Walker has probably never played better. What they have got though is they are extremely balanced, and crucially got match winners in Kane and Lloris.

I mean, I could have written something about each and everyone of their players, but the hype of Mason (

) and Dele Alli is something else. Yes, he's a good talent, have scored some crackers but blimey, he ain't all that. He gets into good areas and pockets, but his first touch is so inconsistent compared to the heights he's hyped up to. They'll probably ridicule this but I feel quite confident in saying he will never make it further than Jenas / Kieron Dyer level and I bloody hope I'm right too.

On to the game itself, certainly not fearing them, but it's a real shame Lanzini is just back and we have no right back. Looked to me like the pitch was in quite bad condition on saturday, so I suppose it will be who deals with that the best. Certainly a case for starting Carroll if the pitch is bad and Slav thinks they'll be closing us down early, but he is much more effective as a sub. Can see this go either way really, but how good would it be to knock them down a peg or two, wish I could be there.

COYI

ould not give a crap if they win the league. I will be down the pub if they are still in for a shout with all my Spurs fans watching the last day of the season.

What doesn't sound good is the trouble a lot of their fans are planning to cause. No doubt they will blame us while they sit their shouting racism terms towards West Ham fans and starting fights with young children. Talking to a mate who a Liverpool fan and he describe the same they will happily start a fight with a 14 year old kid but go running to the police when someone dares tries to put a stop to it

Never understood the cup final comments. They seem to care more about this game than us

By the way, which sites do other fans read of ours? Some of their opinions on what they read seem so far away from what the majority on here write.

Maybe they each have one mate who tries to be nice to them and they decide this view applies to all.

I agree with the posts about our fans getting cocky. A fair few seem to get Liverpool syndrome at times. As for them saying about us caring about them, its like the chicken and the egg. Who cared about who first? Id say most of our fans dislike them because they dislike us.

I remember friends saying this to me a few years ago. Your going to smash us as we've got no spirit etc etc.

5-2 I think the eventual score line was. So screw Arsenal fans, they said it on purpose.

I wonder where they get their opinions from - not discounting the possibility that it is entirely made up. My social media, which probably has more Spurs stuff than theirs, is not dismissing the game at all. Quite the opposite, in fact, and every club has supporters who alternate from despair to joy, it's part of being a fan and not exclusive to Spurs.

Maybe they each have one mate who tries to be nice to them and they decide this view applies to all.
