We also have a terrible record on a Friday. I can barely remember the last Friday night game we won
Don't think he was awful, he looked sharp on the ball, made some good dribbles and worked his bollocks off. He obviously missed Kane.
That's not a good thing
Winning your home games is a must, but every season we lose away to a rival must have a psychological effect on the team.
I remember the Anfield 'curse' that took 70 odd years to break, and we still continue to lose there. It's a cycle that we have to break. I know that this season will be harder with Wembley, but my point still stands.
Yes, they have an even higher percentage of entitled brats then we do.
I'm not saying it's a good or a bad thing. I'm just pointing out that the idea that this is the only forum where some fans melt after a defeat is laughable bullshit. And the melting on here is very mild compared to the Man Utd forums, which
England's Number1
was using as his example
Id prefer to call it a winners mentality.
Oh, and by the way, I have never once labelled us the biggest club in England

If a Utd fan came on here calling us bottlers and spineless, how do you think that would go?
It's actually the opposite - their years of success have attracted people that only want to follow a winning team, that's not a winners mentality, it's expecting other people to win for you without putting any effort in yourself.
The fuck are you on about. We're debating wether melting after a defeat, on your own forum, can be justified, not wether trolling on another clubs forum is justified.
It depends where you draw the line. If you meekly accept second best, it means you'll probably always be second best.
Bandenstein paradox
I don’t see how bitching and moaning about every setback is a winners mentality. To take golf as an example, the real winners are the players who take a dropped shot in their stride, they don’t dwell on it, they don’t let it eat them up. They know they’re going to drop shots (lose games) and accept it as part of the game. It’s how you react to adversity that makes you a winner.
Well United have finished 7th, 4th, 5th, 6th over the last 4 years.....so they've got all the knobhead fans and can't get anywhere near second best
I know. I exaggerated to make a point.
Or maybe some shouldn’t be so fragile when it comes to such opinions, shouldn’t resort to ratings or name calling and actually challenge such viewpoints. Its called a discussion board for a reason but I suspect you would be far happier with it being an echo chamber.
So I blagged a ticket on Friday from a mate who goes to united on a regular basis. Had to keep quiet being in with the united fans and the result was disappointing, we had chances with Delle especially.
I did sit with a grin throughout the match though, I was close to the away end and yes I am biased but our support was incredible. United fans are an embarrassment, silent until they scored and even then it was muted.....the Jose brand of football in full effect!!

We had a little discussion the other day on where Spurs’ priorities should lie regarding trophies. You made your points and I made mine, but ultimately what was achieved? I don’t suppose either of us found it particularly interesting.
The Spurs board is more about making statements - the interesting discussions are usually in General Football or Off Topic. We tend to be too entrenched in our views on Tottenham to allow the middle ground needed for a decent discussion.
