Match Blood Money Cheats v Spurs - 23 Nov @ 17:30

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Mate beheading gays...that's next level. Even the bloke at Forest is better than modern Chelsea and City. None of Lewis's sinanigans comes close. As for the UK America stuff ? The UK state won't fund health care properly they ain't funding Spurs.🤣🤣
And we trade with these countries, buy and sell goods from them. Go there on holidays. We’re happy to have their rulers over here and send our diplomats there to live in luxury.

We don’t give a fuck about gays being beheaded when there are billions of pounds to be made via trade deals. Why get all sanctimonious because the same ruling states decide to buy football clubs?

It’s hypocrisy at its finest. The world is corrupted, football isn’t excluded from that.

Most people lapped up the 2018 and 2022 World Cups. So what if a;few people died or the state isn’t that nice.

Not really that important when it comes to watching international football is it.

Just the way of the world.
 
Spurs have kept within the rules of football, City (most likely) haven't

that's the difference, I'm sure not one of the 20 ownerships is "good" but there's levels
And that's done us so fucking well, hasn't it.
Levy has been hiding behind rules that don't exist for 2 decades. He's gambled everything on them being enforced so we can become competitive. And it hasn't ever happened.

Nah that's not at all equitable and who is we? Would you go to SA? I wouldn't. You draw your own line, we all have to. I won't work in certain parts of the world or holiday or trade, would not directly finance them either. It's only sanctimonious if I tell you not to. You do as you wish and I'm free to say betting against the pound and state endorsed homophobia are not the same to me. Our owners in my eyes are less corrupted than City or Newcastle and that's my subjective call. I turn down work all the time based on just this subjectivity. That's how a moral compass works.
 
Only need to turn up!

I don't think anyone is debating that.
But it's like saying Rose West is less Evil than Ted Bundy because she didn't kill as many people.
You know it's not, right? Lol you named two murderers. That's not a qualitative distinction mate. That's the definition of a quantative distinction. West and Bundy the same: Bundy just more prolific, money market manipulator less evil because trading and murder are NOT moral equivalents if you are sane. And it's EXACTLY what was being debated by people going "what about Joe Lewis" when referenced against MBS. Not sure why people contend the most straightforward stuff. Internet I guess

The point is, these are all unpleasant people that often make money and gain power at other peoples expense.
We don't have great owners to be proud of in any way shape or form.
 
If we’d done the bare fucking basics and won a home match against genuine farmers fodder Ipswich then we’d be potentially licking our lips at this. As it is, we know that we are enslaved by that bald twat, his protected, privileged bubble of mediocrity, and even if we won at the oily head choppers paradise we’ll fuck up soon enough at home to a team with all the potency of In The Night Garden. Honestly, it’s all very genuinely pointless. Someone please get this club out of my veins.

:mourweird: :sonmask: :conteshock: :pochcry:
I feel your pain, I'm still smarting from the Ipswich game. I need a cure!

Proud! Wasn't the point! Which was why I pointed it out. Murders murder, money wrangling is different only you talked about pride. Me I know that killing folk for their sexuality is an ownership red line. It's why the Stavley talk upsets me. Not that I belive that by the way, I notice that story floats up everything the reality of where the team actually is starts to bite. So expect it again post City.
