North London is ours

[SecretLemonadeDrinker]

I have seen everything we have won except 1901 and 1921 cups . We won with style 51 and 61 league / 62 and 67 and 81 cup and 63 CWC
So I make that six trophies won with style and eleven that were not so good a few of them we were downright lucky I could name the teams we played and which club but I am sure you know the games I mean . The fact is one of our best performances we lost that was against Coventry so sad as that team was brilliant but about to be broken up because of that scoundrel Scholour calling him a scoundrel is being kind . But the point I want to make is about those who spout on about the " Tottenham way " and it is a myth .
Never the less its always a privilege to support this great club and what I cherish most is remembering certain games off the top of my head
Gornik champions league / Rangers CWC / Arsenal cup S/F /Inter Milan Champions league / Ajax / you get my point and that is Danny
Blanchflower was right all those years ago that the game is about glory .
The many finals we have been in mostly are forgettable but certain games are imprinted in my mind forever and I will never forget them .
There have been many more but I name a few to give an idea where I am coming from .

Awesome that you have seen so much as a Spurs fan. The envy is strong in me!

I know what you're saying about the Spurs Way. We certainly haven't always played beautiful football. But I don't agree that that necessarily renders the Spurs Way a myth.

Ever since Peter Mcwilliam, through Arthur Rowe, Bill Nicholson and Keith Burkinshaw, entertaining, passing, attacking football has been in Spurs' DNA. Of course, every now and then (or all too often, actually), we didn't have good enough players to live up to the aspiration. Or we appointed a manager who didn't get it - or did get it...but didn't care. But even in the darkest of times for the club, Spurs fans have always kept the flame alight. We have always believed in the ideal. That's what matters. That's what defines the Spurs Way more than the actual football played.

Please forgive me now because I'm going to reference some seriously highbrow literature......Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone ......When Harry first arrived at Hogwarts, the Sorting Hat tried to nudge him towards Slytherin. But he willed himself into Gryffyndor. Slytherin represents success by any means. Gryffyndor represents courage and integrity. It represents an understanding that how you conduct yourself along the journey matters as much as reaching the destination . Or, as someone else once said: it is better to fail aiming high than to succeed aiming low, and we have set our sights very high - so high, in fact, that even failure will have in it an echo of glory.

That we have held Bill Nick's words so close to our hearts ever since shows that, despite all the disappointments, drudgery and dross, we also willed ourselves into Gryffyndor.

And that is what makes the Spurs Way real.

All of those managers were successful as well.

Funny until they go and win another trophy.

Why isn’t it separate? It’ll be shit if they win the cup regardless of league positions. Regardless of whether they win the cup, it was nice to finish above them in the main competition.
