The thing is they would probably laugh at your post the most.
Come on, man. Cheer up. Have a laugh. The world goes on.
As a LFC supporter I think this thread is funny and reflects well on Spurs fans and shows they have good humour and the ability to laugh at themselves which is missing from so many football supporters in todays dog eat dog modern football world. Not sure we'd have the humour to do this.
Its a good laugh and I applaud the balls and humility.

Ridiculed is perhaps a bit excessive but a good laugh is on the cards..

If this was happening to any other team, I'd be ripping the absolute piss out of them and their fans.
Giving out banter is a good thing as long as you can take it and I use these situations to my advantage, when we start winning again don't think I'm not gonna chuck it back, cause I will

I think most think we are mad for getting rid of AVB but there is also a sense among those that I have spoken to that see if as a strong move... Having been in these types of situations before I think we as Spurs supporters are well suited to these situations and we handle it pretty well on a whole being a 'battle hardened' lot when it comes to getting the piss taken out of us .... And as you say when giving it back e can use it to our advantage...

God forbid we laugh at our own predicament in case others see it as a strength!
They got so sick of us taking their insulting name for us as our nickname that they have tried banning that! Maybe all spurs jokes will face the same fate!! Hahahah

I honestly cannot believe that one of our own fans has created this ridiculous thread! These are the kind of threads I'm used to seeing on other clubs forums ****ing us off, yet we have our own fans doing it to us with this!
Its one thing to ridicule ourselves but to advertise it in a "lets all laugh at us" thread is pathetic really.
If some of you can't see how embarrassing this is then theres something seriously wrong. Im sure the more mature fans who have been around pre-playstation era will understand? no? Cmon mods do the right thing.

You are entitled to your opinion, I'm just voicing my own here. Im not trying to be confrontational, its just that i cannot believe you can't see how wrong this thread is? God knows we have hundreds of threads where people slag off this that or the other...and sometimes the abuse is warranted, it would be boring if we were all happy with Spurs all of the time. But like i said, to have whats basically a dedicated thread to purposely make fun of our beloved club is wrong just wrong.

Neither am I. I'm just looking at it from the view of another team's fan coming on and seeing the thread. I'd think "Fair play to them". We often laugh at the posters on RAWK and call them misguided, delusional etc. Threads like this simply show that we realise we're in a mess at the moment. Don't take it all so seriously

In the thread 'What our opponent's fans are saying', it's generally the comments from other fans with jokes about how poor their team is which we appreciate most - because at least they can poke fun at themselves. None of us are laughing at their club.
You really need to re-prioritise what you find important in life I think. You're way too bothered about a silly funny thread on a page on an internet forum. How exactly is this going to negatively effect you or the club in any way?
And it's not that people 'can't see how wrong this thread is' - it's that most people don't actually see anything wrong with it because there isn't anything wrong with it. People aren't 'not seeing it', they just don't agree with you.

It always seems to be the status quo that Tottenham will eventually shoot themselves in the foot. Man City were similar until they got the oil money, now you hear ****s (I don't like Spurs) like Noel Gallagher talking like he knows shit-music apart excellent artist.
I really can't put my finger on us, as a Tottenham supporter we are so conditioned to change/starting again/missing out/promises/ a new dawn/ we sing loud because we love our club COYS COYS we bellow. Within all the negatives and the continual laughter from outsiders, many looking in must think what a mad house!! we love to see good football. We've been blessed to witness some fantastic players pulling on the lillywhite shirt in the past the last being Bale before him Ledley King, Modric Van De Vaart.
It's not easy being a Spurs sometimes, being laughted at is part a parcel. I had a Arsenal mate making a through away comment : " Back to the drawing boards then, Tottenhams always in a crisis" ha ha ha forever in our shadow bullshit.
Always self inflict damange why we havent learnt from past mistakes hell knows. The media outlets are quoting Eric Cantona When the seagulls follow the trawler, it is because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea" Thats so Tottenham! The worse thing is/when we seem settled it doesnt take much from the media to unsettle us or we go and shoot ourselves in the foot again...fuck knows whos controlling our PR.
Lets All Laugh At Tottenham Rings A Bell.

Exactly! Sheesh the number of people who are so stiff in here! You have to be able to laugh at yourself to gain respect and to show that you are matured enough. Calm down some of you.
