You must have some bellys to fit that all on, fuck a duck!
Just get it as a tramp stamp. Should be plenty of room round the back.

WHat's the fucking point in going to a game to then sit there watching a film or whatever the fuck he's doing with the VR thing?

Seems odd, Maybe he's watching it through the camera function on his phone but has some argumentation implemented

Fuck this thread. Supporter belief follows a tangible and final change/improvement from the club, not the other way around. They (players, directors, leagues, marketing deals) exist ONLY because of each and every one of us. They serve us. Supporters are not servants of the club. They change, we change. They keep an underperforming mentality, and they'll get the response that goes with that.

The problem is that this post is quite, but not completely correct. Supporter belief does increase with improvement. Fans are not the servants of the club. In the end, the club understands this and then it becomes a question of means to an end as there are people at the club who are as bright as you are I dealing with a different set of information as well as beliefs.

Just as important, the problem is that club improvement also increases with support belief. You have to wonder what is it about Spurs fans that makes us different. You listen to VDV and others talking about how special this club is. I've always thought that our supporters were different and that our history prevents the sane (and even not sober) fan from having a sense of entitlement. That translates to an unconditional support for the player who gives it all on the pitch whether or not he has the talent. We may want him benched in the end, but the crowd has generally been behind him. Conversely, the lazy bum who has talent but no work rate is someone who deserves lukewarm support only if to help him understand there is another path that could lead them and the club to greatness.

In the end, I'd rather be happy than right so when the players are on the pitch, they'll only get support because there is that feedback loop that their performance can be influenced by the stands. Once the game is done, if they have an underperforming mentality, then the criticism should rain down. But there is a difference between criticism and vitriol. And once the vitriol comes out, that means the intellect is giving way to the emotion. Understandable, but hardly effective. Just look at Arsenal. Their fans are partly responsible for their demise.

If there's going to be a drum and song sheets does that mean we get a party hat and a goodie bag with a slice of cake when we leave?
No but we will feel like spurs ultras.
2018 spurs ultras.

Just wanna get in the new south stand, sing loud and still have the gooners wary of thinking about walking up that high road

Could be worse...


The ultimate insanity/stupidity.

The obsession with trying to capture life through a screen is doing me in (he says, arrogantly typing away on his phone) . Walking around London all you see is tourists taking pictures of themselves and barely even looking at the thing they've flown halfway around the world to see.

No one even looks at their own crappy photos anyway, it's all just for social media bollocks, the narcissistic tards.

Get real. Be present. Enjoy the moment. Fuck your instagram.

Yeah we suck. The pool fans were singing and overpowering us the entire time. And I asked a simple question as to where to go for a pint with some spurs fans and noone answered. Honestly. We suck as fans.

Yeah it's easy to sing when your team's playing fantastic football and top of the league. Short memories some fans, it wasn't that long ago we were laughing at Liverpool because the atmosphere at Anfield was crap. All teams have a great atmos when things are going their way.

We deserve a new stadium. It seems to be yet another Spursy screw up. There was a great atmosphere at WHL. You just won’t get that at Wembley.
Wembley's too big IMO. The atmosphere gets lost. NWHL is a perfect size, much bigger than WHL, but small enough and close enough to the pitch to maintain the old WHL atmosphere.
