Besiktas away 2006 I made a chicken saag curry in time for KO and I have done for every European away game since.

When Paul Stalteri scored the last minute winner against Wham a few years ago I jumped out of my seat rupturing my achilles tendon and was in plaster for the next 3 months. And yes it was worth it! :)

When we're in possession, I have a habit of pointing obnoxiously at the TV to demonstrate where I think the next pass should go.

I do this at games as well, constantly telling the players what they should do, can't help it !! I must be fucking annoying to sit next to !

HAHA! I do this constantly, I even find myself running up to the screen and shouting "THERE! THERE! YOU CLOWN!!" I'm so cool... :whistle:

If the opposition have a late corner in a close game I go to the toilet with my fingers in my ears for about 2 minutes

I seem to remember BC saying he kicked a new foot-rest that his missus just bought, and it wasn't as soft as the previous one.

Pretty sure he rated Mrs BC as 10/10 for being a 'busy ***' that game.


This indeed did happen. I seriously thought I had chipped a bone in my shin. We used to have this lovely soft leather poof (resist A&C) that was always the first thing to be kicked in moments of frustration, for some strange reason Mrs BC upgraded to one that looked very similar, was covered in similar leather with a cushioned top but the rest was wood covered in leather. It was a game when someone equalised very late I think (could have been Swansea) which pissed me off enormously.

I'm a bad watcher of football on TV often. My dog usually disappears upstairs when it's on. He picks up my anger vibe. Fucknows how. Dogs are super perceptive eh..

My favourite moment of TV watchage was Stalteri's late winner at West ham. That man (Stalteri) will always have a special place in my heart. Just went ballistic, hugged wife, hugged kids, went upstairs hugged dog.

Mine to, I ran out of the front door, out of the driveway and then realised I was running down the street like a mad man screaming YES :)

I remember this old dear looking at me in disbelief!

Pull my socks up and down.
I move stuff around the living room and if we are winning I leave evrything exactly where it is ie empty beer cans
Do a pathetic body popping attempt when we score
I do my own time wasting when we are winning late on in a game by going upstairs and cleaning stuff
When friends text during a game to wind me up when we are losing I usually text back some pretty sick shit like saying I hope your dog dies and I m going to smash your front door in.

When we were getting beat 3-0 by Youngboys I was slavering like a rabid dog and I thought I was on the verge of a breakdown
When we played City for the cl decider I drank about 20 pints of water due to pure anxiety and a after the game I felt like I was going to die.

I generally do some strange shit when I watch Spurs, apart from that I consider myself to be pretty normal:sneaky:

Always stay in the same seat in the living room for each game if we win the first game of the season and i'm sitting there. I also blame that seat if we lose and refuse to sit in it again until the curse can be accidently broken by me being too drunk and sitting there again..

My brother phoned at three nil and asked me what Mr Redknapp was doing. I replied:
"He's just preparing for his stint in jail by letting some young boys fook him." :eek:

Change underwear ..... regularly. :oops:

Paul Calf style :cool:
Do you have any objections to wearing dead man's pants? :eek:

I listened to it on the radio via a link from SC.

It all went quiet when he scored, the commentator said, 'Oh no, oh dear...' or some bollocks and I did the nearest thing to an air-guitar that a celebration can be. Hogged the TV that night.

I often try sitting in different seats at home, hoping this will somehow influence the game in our favour. I changes rooms too, hoping that if i watch from the bed room instead it will help. i have also been known to rearrange furniture in the front room, again in a deluded attempt to win Spurs the match. What a twat!

Me too. And I hate watching on tv when you can't see the whole scenario and a pass is made, and you can't see who to at first. I can't help saying, (ok, shouting), "who's that to?" when I know if I waited a couple of seconds, I would know. Tension eh?

And I always cheer and clap when we score. :)

  • In the carling cup final when we beat chelsea in the final.. after woody put us 2-1 infront i couldn't watch so jumped in my car and went for a drive for half an hour.
  • In the champions league decider against City when Crouch scored I jumped off my sofa tried to sprint around the table slipped because of the wooden flooring onto the table and the table collapsed.
  • Never let my grandma be in the house when spurs are playing because we always lose when she is there
  • Never reply to text or calls during the game... If we lose I dont answer or reply for the rest of the day
  • In a major depressed state for the rest of the day if we lose
  • I work my roster around spurs games to make sure I am always off for when we are playing... if i cannot get it off i call in sick
  • Scream like a girl when a pass or shot is on and the player isn't listening to me to the point my dad said "stop fkn screaming"
  • I never hug my dad but against city this season away when bale passed it across goal for defoe to slot in an open goal... when defoe slid for it i couldnt watch and hugged my dad and hid my face behind his back... My dads abusive words towards defoe gave me the conclusion of what happened even though i didnt watch it :(
  • In nervy moments or periods i start flicking through my iphone pointlessly looking at absolutely nothing or re-reading a text over and over again
  • Never watch match of the day if we draw or lose
  • Always record live matches after the game if we've won i carry on rewinding the players celebrations... and rewind again to see how everyone of our player on the pitch reacted as the goal hit the back of the net
  • There are so many more things i do but this is turning into a long ass post.... I LOVE YOU SPURS!

Shout at the tv on where the ball should be passed. 'Go left!! Left!! Left!! Ah how the fuck did he not see him?!'

When Martins scored that goal I kicked the wall and made a dent.

Lift my right leg up when the oppo have a chance in anticipation of someone making a last ditch tackle.

Scream st the ref asking him if he's blind or why that was a free.

Sing a long to Oh When The Spurs when I hear it on tv.

Whack the arm chair in frustration when we concede a shit goal.

Shout the house down when we score sending the dog ballistic.

I always do this. Always. I especially look out for Modric. Always love his reactions. And Bale and Lennons
