After failing to finish above the arse under Harry and Chelsea winning the CL I thought we'd perhaps reached a watershed moment we'd look back on with regret for years.
After finishing behind them again last year I knew we were finally cooked.
I've said this more times than I care to remember on this forum but failing to invest in recent years had proven a massive waste of a golden opportunity than may not come again for some time.
We had several world class players, a good manager, were in a strong position with our rivals severely weakened. That is the time to invest, in order to safeguard your position.
Our time may come again but it will be a long wait imo, particularly if the stadium goes ahead and our transfer activity and investment stays minimal as a result.
And even if we do get a measure of success, I'm sure we will find a way of blowing it, with some sort of internal crisis or power struggle gone wrong.
We are a bit of a dysfunctional club unfortunately. All part of being a Spurs fan. *sigh*
