It's perfectly obvious what you mean. You're a Spurs fan right? Presumably you want to win titles? You've spent a week telling everyone you need to spend big to win titles, and you're now denying that you want us to spend big? What exactly do you want us to do? Not win anything to prove you're correct?

Stop playing dumb to suit your lies.
We can't afford to spend big like city, utd or chelsea. So no, I don't want us getting in to massive debt & spending big thanks.
But I honestly don't mind if you want to think I do. Go ahead.

All along I said you need to spend big to win titles. If I supported swansea I'd say the same. It wouldn't mean I want swansea to go in to debt to spend big like the big boys.

As posted a few days ago by me-

Order of priority.
1) toby new contract
2) RB
3) An explosive attacking player
4) Another young player for the future

You made a silly assumption & jumped to a silly conclusion.

I don't want us to spend big but I don't want us to sign nobody either.

& the biggest flaw in yours & sammys lies is caused by your massive ego's.
If I thought we should spend 300m & change 6 players then I'd say it.
I couldn't care less what you & sammy thought of me.
Your ego's are so big that you think I'd backtrack because I care so much what you 2 liars think.

So if you want me to say I want us to spend big & change 6 players I will.
You're just a couple of strangers on the internet. Who cares.

EDIT)
It is like if someone said the UK need more power in the world but the only way is by going to war.

Suddenly you would conclude they 100% must want to go to war.

Stand for your views and stop posting in a style that means you are never actually committed.

Drop all the "show me a post where I said this" crap. This isn't OJ Simpson.

We know what you meant, and so do you.

Let's just start over then and be clear.

Do you think that teams must spend big to be successful?

Do you want Spurs to be successful?

If so, what is a big in relation to what our rivals are spending?

The last question has been ignored several times. I would like to know how much less than City's spending, is big enough for us to beat them to titles on a regular basis.

Oh yeah I'm on ignore I forget, so just answer in the 3rd person and don't address any of that

You sound so angry all the time. There's an ignore function ain't there. I'm honestly not trying to be funny, but maybe you should use it for the likes of me and my little clique you mention. You'll probably feel a lot happier for it

Why should he use the ignore function?

Surely better to engage if you disagree

It's a forum FFS

  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 2 lemons, juiced and zested
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 4 egg yolks, beaten
  • 1 (9 inch) pie crust, baked
  • 4 egg whites

Don't overdo the sugar as it will melt

And we don't want that on this thread do we?

Yes I know. But he doesn't engage. He just rants and raves, works himself up into frenzied state, and exaggerates the posts he disagrees with just to get approval of other members. I was only thinking about his own well being when I suggested he use the ignore function. That's all. I was trying to help.

What sanctimonious tripe.

He asked a question which all you negatives are still yet to answer. After being asked thrice now. That's engaging. It's you lot being cowardly as you know it batters your argument. You'd rather fall back on your ''no one explicitly said that'' to try worm your way out of your own flawed opinion.

Saw this on facebook, only posting as I know how much it winds people up - more so non-Spurs fans than even Spurs fans:

You sound like a child.

Why are you and Scott so bothered that some people "like" me?

I post my views, people are free to feel whatever they want about it. Trying to get people to like me?
Is this Lunar Storm in 1999 and we are 14 year old girls? Man up son.

He paints himself into a corner as do some of you sometimes and despite being offered the rather generous opportunity of moving out of there this is not taken up! Rather stupid position to maintain really!
