Is this the worst day ever?

[Destroyer]

I think this day is right up there with when we lost the 1987 FA Cup Final against Coventry, i am left with a very empty feeling, one i have only ever experienced once before.

 

[spurdownunder]

Easily the worst day in my time as a Spurs fan. Well worse than lasagne gate all things considered.

Seeing those ****s prance around with the cup knowing its at our expense......just fucking hurts.

Fuck everything football right now.

DEVASTATED.

the day after groundhog day cannot possibly be the worst day ever.. it could turn out to be the best

 

[Fergus]

No, it wasn't even our worst day of the season. That was the spineless capitulation against Chelsea at Wembly. This was our worst day ever.

Definitely the worst Spurs related day of my life ever. I think one of the reasons why it's so painful to accept is because Chelsea didn't deserve it, their brand of football is so negative and mind-numbingly boring. The piss taking from my Arsenal and Chelsea supporting mates has been unbearable, though I have managed to console myself slightly with the knowledge I get to have the last laugh when England fail miserably to get out of the group stages.

Why is football so cruel. This is the worst feeling i've ever had in football. I feel sick, where the fuck do we go from here? Chelsea won the champions league and they are fuckin shit...

If we hadn't have got Jurgen back when we did that would have been WDE.

<wonders how many people here remember that season>

[Wonders if DuDe remembers 1977.]

For me this has been one of the worst days of my 30+ years supporting Tottenham, but I knew it coming with West Ham winning this afternoon.

Not really. I was there when we were relegated, that broke my heart.

When it was revealed that Scholar had bankrupt us I was inconsolable for weeks.

Today just pissed me off.

 

[C0YS]

We didn't get relegated, it was not thanks to a direct consequence of our failings, life goes on. Lets not kid around, it feels like shit. But the fact it does fills me with pride, I remember how bad we were when I started watching spurs, and while the day is a negitive one. I would of traded my first five years has a spurs fan for this one negative day.

 

[Akqayid]

No seriously....

That's I feel like. Like my bowels have been touched by a rapist in a maximum security prison.

I understand now what shankly said about life and death. And I wish I was dead. Anyone in gods fucking planet. But not them.

Tonight our club, our love, everything we've wanted for years and years, and what we touched and tasted only 16 months ago has gone.

And I genuinelly feel we'll never get that back. Tonight has set us back years. Bales gone, rat face, Rafa?, Kabaul? Have they the guts to stand there for 9 more months? Can we get there again?

No. I don't think so. Jake Livermore and Danny Rose. Theyre our future now.

I cried tonight.... Not because of the result, but for what the result meant. It meant our club could be and will be fucked for years again.

This isn't a knee jerk, it's a honest, from the heart feeling of where we'll be. And that's being happy beating west ham twice a year.

Blame who you want. Harry, the players, the FA, Chelski, but deep down we all knew we we'd be fcked tonight. It's us. It's what we do, even when we're not playing.

Mind the gap? Yeah that gap has just become light years now..... Big signings? Not a fucking hope in hell.

Billions buys you it. And for every twat that says I want a football club, heart, community blah fucking blah...... Have you seen what that gets you nowadays? Nowhere.... Heart and soul? Yeah doesn't win medals. I hope Quatar royal family do buy us.... Just so that I don't taste the cup of mediocre anymore, so I stop feeling like this, the joke of the party, the butt of the jokes.... Because I'm fucking bored of it.

Given my missus at gun point or spurs to win the league or CL... She'd be buried the next day.

Today is a dark day In our history. Mark my words..... This has set us back 25 years.


Drunken rant, but from the heart, and you all know it's true. No ones fault but ours. That's the kicker. The kicker I can't swallow.

Gutted. Absolutely hang myself depressed.

 

[C0YS]

Honestly no offence. I thought it was fucking shit as well but, there is always tomorrow, particularly in football. It goes on. What is glory with money like chelsea and city have, that isn't glory, tottenham must do it our way, and no other. Its not about current situation or standing its about glory. And when our time comes, whenever that may be, I want to be able to say I supported a club that was more then just buying oneself a trophy, but that I supported a club with principle, and honour, and glory, even if it meant no trophy to show for it.

I will leave you with a fitting quote from Bill Nicholson:

"It is better to fail aiming high than to succeed aiming low. And we of Spurs have set our sights very high, so high in fact that even failure will have in it an echo of glory."

We have attempted to achieve something which is supposedly beyond our clubs financial capability. We failed but only through misfortune. Our failure in its own way is a lot more glorious than Chelsea's victory. And it is this which drives me on as a Spurs fan

Dont kill yourself bro

 

[EastLondonYid]

WTF....this is like a bad dream, i'm going to wake up in a minute and all this will be just a nightmare.Did Chelsea really win? how? how did they not lose 15-0 how did they not lose 24-0 against Barca? they are probably the worse side to win the CL ever.....

I will tell you how they won...yes they rode their luck like no other team i ever seen, but they won it cos THEY REALLY WANTED IT , and would not lie down, even when down to 10 men in Barca and 2 down, even when they conceeded late late lastnite, even when they were down in the shoot out..

Compare that to the way we 'wanted it' at Villa when it was back in our own hands and you will realise its all about how much you really want something, yes we rallied in the 2nd half but the first half i didn't get the feeling we were really grasping our repreive..........i am afraid we didn't want it enough IMO.

 

[oohaahedgar]

At least Harry can be happy for his nephew.

 

[yusrisafri]

without a shadow of doubt, this is the worst day of my spurs life. feels like everything went against us. I pity bayern as well for being at the wrong end of our curse

 

[3Dnata]

Awful day. I remember being relegated but you could see that coming a couple of years away and it wasn't like a dramatic event.

 

[BoringOldFan]

Nah. I see West Ham as 6 points gained and although it's hard to take, Chelsea winning this should mean they keep Di Matteo, which in turn means we will finish above them next season. You have to take the positives as difficult or deluded as that may be.

Not the best day I've ever had though, that's for sure.

Der bombmeister takes a swing and knocks the ball out of the park. Good to see some things on here don't change .

I can only think that those who voted this the worst day ever must be quite young and haven't been following Tottenham for too long.

 

[hakano]

Quite simply it is not the worse day ever, go back 5 to 10 years ago I wouldn't have even dreamed that we would be finishing 4th with Chelsea needing to win the f**king CL to qualify for the competition next season.

On the balance of the season as a whole do I feel a little hard done by? Sure. However we are still a great club who are climbing the league slowly, doing it the right way and playing some great football. I think people need to take in some perspective at the moment and just be happy we are where we are.

A little hard done by? Wow, I'm absolutely devastated - I was actually hoping then when I woke up it was some sort of nightmare, but it appears to be true, Chelsea are CL winners and we are playing Thursday - Sunday again next season. It is a big balls up from Harry first and then the team, Harry as manager has to take responsibilty but of course will not. At 65 he has 1 trophy to his name and that's what he will end up with because he is not a winner and judging by the comments of some of the posts here it seems quite a few of our fans are also not winners. Forget where we were 5-10 years ago, are we supposed to be happy with mediocrity all our life now? Man U never won the league for 25 or so years but they had a manager who was a winner, he wasn"t saying people forget where were and the like. With Harry we have no chance of progressing beyond where we are today.

Spot on. Against the worst Villa side in decades Harry settled for a point when Arsenal had given 3rd place back to us on a plate. Parker for VDV was his choice of sub whilst he had Defoe and Saha on the bench. Harry the clown has cost us and hope Levy has the balls to show him the door. The irony is that Harry thought the England job was in the bag and he wouldn't be in the position he now finds himself.
