I haven't demanded any cupsThere are 92 teams is it, in England? Pro teams, then theres non league.
Add every team in every country in Europe. Now do that for South America.
How many teams fans have been "let down".
There are probably about 5 clubs from some 2000, who fans can boast all year every year.
I suggest you get used to it, or jump off, cos your gonna be fucking miserable if you cant enjoy the game without silverwear. Welcome to Spurs. I was born in 76, but the first cup I could genuinely be part of was 91.
Thats 3 cups in my Spurs supporting years, being too young to remember of really get the ones before that.
Im still in the VAST minority of fans who have seen their club lift a cup. Fucking get over it.
Very accurate summation IMO. If ever there was a match that you'd say "whatever can go wrong, will go wrong" applied to.....Just woke up after a 28 hour road trip, amazing away day for Gent. My thoughts on the game :
Spurs were very strong 2 nd half esp, taking of Dembele was an error (same as last week) and reduced the pressure on Gent midfield, allowing for counter possibilities.
Gent were poor, the worst performance in Europe for a long time. Stupid and dangerous from Dele, but Spurs could and should ve scored 3 or 4 ..
Walker and Son were amazing, the atmosphere in the Gent crowd was too. But its easier for away fans, esp 8k of them all in the same corner. When Spurs did start singing the noise was impressive.
Hangover is a bitch though

This obsession with top 4 has got to stop. What's the point of qualifying for a european competition, when you do nothing in it. We should be all over the FA cup now
Sorry.which game are you talking about?We have a very young and very inexperienced team. Every one of these moments is a learning experience, and I hope the lads learned a valuable lesson in the fact that sitting back and underestimating your "lesser" opponent in their stadium can ultimately cost the tie.

Yeah well if, your going to be like that.Working well for Leicester
Yeah well if, your going to be like that.
We bottle big games. If our players had more experience of winning things that wouldn't happen so often.
I know our Belgian CBS have won the league with Ajax. Other than that, who on our team has experience in winning trophies?You might want to research that. There's hardly anyone in the team that's not played in europe for most of their career. Most of the players have won trophies.
Awaiting bullshit reply of "none of our players have won the premiership or champions league"
