What do we need to do to make us Premiership Champions, and just how far away are we?
I've been loving and supporting this amazing football club since December 1961 and I held a season ticket at White Hart Lane for 34 years. I've seen all the cup glories and amazing European nights, I've lived through all the dramas, the ecstasies, the horrors and the embarrassments on a weekly basis, I've defended my football club against all sorts of negative and disgusting comments from the fans of other clubs with all my passion, and I will always do so.
But in all my time as a Spurs fan, I have never seen us lift the one ultimate prize which would make us English Champions and that hurts. I honestly cannot remember the last time we came even remotely close, and that hurts even more. I'm afraid something one of my colleagues at work said which infuriated me so much, could actually be true (although I'd never admit it to him...) He told me Chelsea are now a bigger club than we are, and it makes me feel sick to even repeat that on here. They disgust me. That entire fucking club is rotten from top to bottom, including their fans who are an embarrassment to football.
Winning cups is great, don't anyone get me wrong, but once a cup is won, it's pretty much forgotten. Being English Champions would elevate us to an entirely new level. It would place us firmly amongst the elite, where we should always strive be.
In three years time, we are going to be playing at one of the worlds finest new stadiums in front of London's largest capacity, barring Wembley. Bearing in mind that by that time all the other clubs in major contention will have built and developed their own resources accordingly, what will we be able to do to make us serious contenders for the Premiership.
It's going to be a fascinating journey for us over the next ten years but as much as I love to see us winning cups and all our fans going crazy celebrating, I'm far more determined to se us being crowned English Champions before I shuffle off this mortal coil.
Am I asking too much?
