Consensus on reverse St Totteringhams?

[pffft]

Older Spurs fans know, and the younger ones will eventually learn, that the gods of football really, really, hate Spurs fans, and spend all of their time devising new and interesting ways to break our hearts.

Apologies to Sir Bill, but for Spurs, even glory has in it an echo of failure.

Do some really think that a thread started on some forun actually had an effect on the results and league standings?

No. but the alternative - that our manager and players do not seem to care about contaminating what would have been a very decent season - is a much tougher proposition.

No mate spurs break there own hearts our players didn't do it for there fans needed one fucking point!

Has this been discussed yet?
Only suggestion for me is St Christopher's Day in honour of the patron saint of travellers (and a polite way of reminding them of their south london roots). Ideally it could be a lot more derogatory but i cant think of anything at the moment.

do us a favour try not too start too many threads, since this got started

P4 - W0 - D2 - L2 F5 - A10 - PTS 2 - GD -5

And the same mongs will happily shell out their grand for Levy to pull the wool over their eyes again with 14 transfers at a cost of NIL

This capitulation has fuck all to do with players bought or net spend. Of our last four games we had far better players than three of the teams we played. This month is down to Poch and the players no one else.

When was the so called "st totteringhams" day last season?

Cobblers. This isnt just two games, this is the whole season, points pissed away.


Our options are utter jank in the middle. We went into the season with an untried CB in midfield, an injury prone Moussa and a young league 1 player. Lo and behold they worked out brilliantly. Well done Poch. But had they not, and we had Carrol and Mason all year, well youve seen how many points we have when they started. Believe that makes 11 in 12 games. Relegation form!!!

Not to mention the lack of a second striker.

Its like a blue chip company having no project managers or sales heads. The CEO would be fired for such negligence.

 

[markiespurs]

If I had the misfortune to support Arsenal, I would'nt be celebrating too much beating us to second place on the last day of the season by a single point.

The gap is closing, just not as fast as we'd like.

 

[Misfit]

Bitterly disappointing way to end the season. Actually rather angry. It could be good in a way I suppose. Sharp reminder to our young squad and still a fuckton of work to do to become an elite unit able to grind out results as and when needed. Probably just looking for crumbs of comfort, mind.

/deep sigh

 

[Wirral Spurs]

Only we can come third in a two horse race. Just suck it in, forget it and go again next year.

Let's hope it is a proper lesson learned.

 

[Maske2g]

This will hopefully be a good thing.

We are in the Champions league grpups.

The gaffer has bemoaned his squad publicly. We might invest this year!!!

(Not holdin breath)

They need reminding that at Christmas it was them who were top of the table. They completely ballsed up their best chance of winning the title, a statement that seemed to get repeated near enough every season. They then just about limped past us on the very last day of the season. A decade ago they were title winning material and we were a a mid table club. Things have changed.

He can say what he likes about the squad the games we have lost we should have won when looking at it player for player. I'm not having a go, because I expected this season to be difficult and I knew we lacked experience. I wanted to see a big improvement this year performance wise and I have. Whilst it has been a really shitty end to the season my opening day expectations have been exceeded. Now we have to kick on again next year.

Not Levy's fault. Poch has said very clearly in numerous PC that he had the chance to sign players but he'd rather wait to get exactly who he wants. Those looking to criticise Levy at every opportunity always seem to overlook this fact. Had he gone out and bought anyway he'd have been getting the same amount of grief for not backing his manager.

This is so wrong and the crux of our problems. The race for 1st may have eventually come down to two but the race for 2nd had a much wider participation.

The problem is that the fans assumed 2nd was a foregone conclusion when it wasn't at all.

If this is all arsenal and chelsea fans can cheer about then good luck to them. Arsenal fans are still caught in no mans land. On one hand they want rid of wenger but on the other they celebrate his achievement of finishing 1 point and 1 place higher. If thats all that drives them then fair enough.

I'm an older Spurs fan, 56, and I can't remember a season like this where we were actually chasing the title. Sure there's pain; it goes with increased expectations and hope. That only happens because we've improved.

We've won nothing of note since '91. Had so many years of settling with low expectations, 'cause we had no reason to believe in ourselves. Even in those Bale, Modric years, we never had a sniff of the title, and in my opinion, never looked like we had an actual team that had a solid base for the future.

We have that now, despite our horrendous collapse the last few games. Still, I'd much rather deal with the pain and disappointment now 'cause I was hoping for 1st or 2nd rather than feeling nothing like I did in previous seasons.

Unfortunatley though the last few games have thrown up old traits from the past like the fragile mentality and the fold up of today, to lose home and away and be trashed in one of them by relegated fodder is scandolous but also very spursy.
Im sure the future will bring better but the players will need to stay more focused and the club will need to provide more quality.
Thank fuck the season ended today otherwise a few more games and we may have dropped out of the top four.
