I thought you were being sarcastic because it’s Brentford … my bad.

Guess we don't need an analytics department either. We should just sign players after seeing them "run arand a bit."Sorry but I really think the xG stuff is some of the biggest festering pile of speculative bollocks to ever pollute the sport. It's clown logic.
You're really comparing people who just want to be miserable with people who try to see the bright side of things and find the latter annoying? Okaaayyy... I guess if you're a miserable person, you'll find positivity to be annoying.
Are we in the title hunt this year, where losing the first 2 games will dash our hopes? I must have missed that part. I always thought this season was a write-off to allow Ange to implement his style. Tough crowd.That's what tends to happen. Rather than get the CBs in now so they can gel with the team, we get them in 31st August, when we've lost the first 2 games, having to play Dier.
How many times has this happened ?
There's a certain class of people who can't seem to handle living in the real world. Bad news and discontentment is so incredibly uncomfortable to them that they will literally delude themselves into thinking everything is fine.Positivity is annoying when it is baseless. If things are shit and I know they’re shit I don’t want to listen to someone clapping in the corner about how things are actually fine just because they say so.
People last season insisting we could still get top 4 despite everything showing us the team was broken was annoying. Stop insulting everyone’s intelligence! Also annoying is enforcing positivity.
There’s plenty of decent positive posts which I’ve actually agreed with & find interesting. Ones which provide genuinely good justifications for why we might be in for a fun season. Those are great, more of those.

You've got to be a paid Levy troll. No way you're this stupid.Are we in the title hunt this year, where losing the first 2 games will dash our hopes? I must have missed that part. I always thought this season was a write-off to allow Ange to implement his style. Tough crowd.

Not as if our pressing need for a CB is brand new information. I said at the tail of last season that Levy shouldn't be allowed to do any business until the CBs are sorted.No season should ever be a ‘write off’. And accepting losing early games due to doing business poorly is a poor attitude as well.
Nobody expects CL or a trophy next season but we should be aiming to be back in the EL and going deeper in the cups. Since the PL is going to be more competitive than ever dropping dumb points early doesn’t sound like a top strategy to me.

It's one of the reason the world is such a fucking shithole now.
3 weeks out from the start of the season.
*Highly rated goalkeeper that Inter wanted to replace Onana.
*Solomon on a free, PL ready and looks promising.
*Madison, the 2nd best AM in the PL for the last two years. Excellent.
*No CBs yet, but plenty of time in the window.
*No offers for our deadwood yet, but plenty of time in the window.
Glass half full.
I think most of us know in our hearts that this TW is just going to be a repeat of a repeat of a repeatNot as if our pressing need for a CB is brand new information. I said at the tail of last season that Levy shouldn't be allowed to do any business until the CBs are sorted.
Apparently I know our Daniel too well.
The only true part of your post.

Conjecture based on 20+ years of watching Levy and his merry men pull us down to their level... plus another 40 years of support so please don't patronise me....The only true part of your post.
The rest, good and bad, is conjecture.
That's an entirely different matter. I'm not sitting behind my computer mashing away at the keys, gurning till my teeth fall out.Or some people just don't take things they can't control too seriously.
Something I've learnt over the past couple of seasons is that if watching Spurs makes me angry then I don't go/watch.
When I'm pissed off after we lose, I go play with my boy and forget about it.
I want Spurs to give Uncle Ange everything he wants this summer but I can do fuck all about making it happen so I don't let it get to me.
It's not happy clapping. It's perspective.
No season is a write off. Ange plays to win every match.Are we in the title hunt this year, where losing the first 2 games will dash our hopes? I must have missed that part. I always thought this season was a write-off to allow Ange to implement his style. Tough crowd.
