5 New Words You Won’t Be Able to Support Spurs Without


1. Freundian Slip

Noun

A Freundian Slip is an unusual and exaggerated physical action or series of actions that reveal both the conscious and subconscious desires of an individual. Normally, a freundian slip involves the wiggling and waving of both arms and legs and the thrusting of the head towards an imaginary football. This phenomenon is named after the sideline antics of Spurs Assistant Head Coach Steffen Freund, who remains the only Spurs player to have never scored a subconscious goal for the club.

2. Clintentional

Adjective

A Clintentional action is an action that is neither intended nor unintended until the point at which the outcome can be gauged as being positive or negative.

“I played a precision through ball that clintentionally moved in the wind and looped in over the keeper’s head for the winning goal.”

3. Adedextrous

Adjective.

An Adedextrous individual is somebody who has an incredibly erratic and unpredictable ability - with both feet. It is often not possible to deduce which of their feet is their preferred one due to the fact that they can appear both world class and totally useless with either.

“John consolidated his claim as the most adedextrous player in his Power League team, smashing home a scintillating 30 yard volley just moments before breaking both ankles while failing to control a stationary ball.”

4. Tabula Rasiak

Noun

Tabula Rasiak is an epistemological theory that Spurs fans are born with the subconscious awareness of the sufferings and hardships endured by fans before them. It states that this latent memory of the greatest legends and the most frustrating failures causes strong feelings of resentment and anger. Proponents of the theory argue that Tabula Rasiak explains the unusually high expectations and notable impatience that are prevalent amongst Spurs fans.

5. Huddpocalypse

Noun

The Huddpocalypse is an end of the world scenario in which Tom Huddlestone’s goalless drought lasts so long that his afro grows to an unmanageable size and consumes the entire earth. It is speculated to occur at some point before 2025, and is widely accepted as the funkiest of all possible ends to humanity.

Bentley noun

To "do a Bentley" is to perform way below par - particularly upon being acquired by a new owner, so much so as to lose all intrinsic value. To fall from a respected position to a laughing stock in a short period of time.

Based on the luxury car marque of the same name with its illustrious racing history and road pedigree, that straight after being bought by Volkswagen completely lost its cache and was reduced to near-toy status for overpaid young men.

Who is that useless DJ? Oh, he's not really a DJ, he's actually a footballer but did a Bentley when he was sold by Blackburn Rovers.
