How long do you reckon we would have lasted in the Park Lane pre-2017 doing that?

Or God forbid an away match. I'm getting a black eye just thinking about it.
Pathetic, Actually I couldn't give a shit about the filth unless we're playing them.
To be honest I love coming down to Spurs, but meeting mates in the Coach for beers and a laugh is better, plus meeting the usual TF'ers in the ground.
By the way 1882 is a good bloke.

Spoke to 1882 1882 .

He wanted to apologise unreservedly to the forum. In particular reprobate reprobate Go on son and skywalker68 and anyone else that was compelled to reply.

No excuses, but in a nutshell fell off the wagon in spectacular style. His Jewish roots and upbringing have made him 'somewhat bitter' on the Jewish thing being used against Spurs.

As I said yesterday I will just add that 1882 1882 is lovely bloke in real life and you will not find a single TFC poster who has met him that would say otherwise.

We all make mistakes. Some unfortunately are in the public domain. Shame he has been cancelled for one mistake but that's modern life.

I for one would welcome him back.
Have never met him personally, but know that you have held him in high regard as proper Spurs for a long time (from first time we met up for a beer pre match).
I would hope for some clemency here, unless he’s happy being perma-canned off the forum.
He clearly derailed spectacularly with a couple of posts recently but it’s something most people are very capable of when the stars align.
But aside from a couple of recent posts that he will clearly know were red card offences, I’ve always found his posts warm, funny and self deprecating.
There’s certainly far worse roaming the TFC wilderness right now.
I would also like to see him back on here if that’s at all possible.

Cheers mate. Remember when we blagged into that hotel bar that was residents only so we could get a few beers 🍻 Fun times.

He definitely would like to come back when the dust has settled Admin Admin

What about a poll?
 
One thing that really grated is with Fulham down to 10 instead of going for the jugular we took off Maddison, and if anything Fulham were still creating the better opportunities. With about ten minutes to go if you include stoppage time against ten men we settled for the point.

We never really looked threatening at all.
We',d already coached a win at that point

Our job was done

Not sure what I have missed but he’s a good fella , get him back in the site!
Admin Admin can you make it happen?
 
Hey Admin Admin , already missing 1882 1882 , I am sure the same applies to Mrs Perryman Mrs Perryman , Nutter-Naylor Nutter-Naylor and the rest of the forum.

That was a very fun day. Can’t remember how we silver tongued our way in there (perhaps being the first through the door at around 9am helped) but I do remember it was pretty hard for them to turn others away a little later and it became proper spurs.
Had a very warm glow on the way to the game.
NLD if I remember, which we won. Kane, second half penalty early doors which I missed as I was still emptying my bladder of the earlier excesses.
 
I just forgot to get off my train..
You honestly think I remember every conversation I have with nameless strangers on the Internet?

You should when you've had a charity bet.

Tosser.

You could, instead of name calling, refresh my memory. Maybe point me to the conversation?


So after you were raging round the forum yesterday calling people cunts and tossers, have you calmed down and feel like refreshing my memory on the bet?
Because I'm perfectly happy to honor bets. I just can't if I can' remember what it was.
 
Honestly, watching live in the stadium, I looked down at Son and a few others trudging to the halfway line, shoulders dropped, heads down. I literally said to the people i sit with "look at the state of that body language"
It was genuinely shocking. I don't remember us looking like that for a very long time. Usually if we concede there's some chest beating, the ball gets picked up and ran back to the halfway line and they're trying to make amends. But they looked like "we've been here before, over and over, and we're fed up with it"
Spot on , I was there also and said the same to my son . Something not quite right
 
All day.

Non-league and lower league football is a much superior day out and product.

Well, apart from the play acting, diving, over paid primma donnas, time wasting, VAR, expense and punditry for which the Premier League is second to none.
I go watch Notts County, Forest Green and especially Dulwich Hamlet a few times a year...and yep, it's a lot more fun. And I don't think it's just the old fart in me.

Same when I'm in France, Switzerland or the Netherlands. I get a few invites through work contacts & friends to big league matches, but I tell them all the time...take me to watch some lower league teams I've never heard of instead. Sitting on freezing concrete, drinking cheap beer out of tiny carton cups and eating the worst greasiest chips in the universe? Let's have it.
 
I've been in touch with him too and he has asked me to pass on his sincere apologies for everything, he knows he let himself down and will miss being on here. He's going to take some time away from the game and regroup.
Being a Spurs supporter should come with a health warning, they engage our emotions in such a way that is not always good for us.
Admin Admin , I know that he regrets his actions and hope that you can show some leniency and let him return soon.
Nice to see some of you guys have had contact with him. I don’t know him personally but I know he’s been around for ages so it’s a shame to see and old timer in trouble. I’m not justifying his comments at all, but glad he’s had a chance to apologise for them. Hope he’s ok.
 
Not sure why Ange has defenders remaining, honestly. We are inconsistent at best and often poor as we were today. The selection is poor, the team is in the same place it was when he took over the club - no improvement at all. A generic replacement football manager could do all the things he’s done.

Beating a City team that’s in disarray doesn’t and didn’t change or prove a thing. He is what he is and thats is not good enough.
I think his team selections havent been awful he has actually got it right a lit. Its when things arent working hes in trouble. In match decisions and lack of flexibility
 
Can't stand it

some of the guys they get on are okay but Rick Sacks who talks at a million miles an hour and keeps sayin things like "God we're all so mental on here aren't we?" "God how we do it being so mental, you're gonna have us all sectioned in a minute for all being so mad"

as he laughs away at nothing.......
Christ hed drive you mental. Hes like a father ted character

Why cant they do something to change it tgen. Not excusing ange but Son is fucking captain. His shit attitude spreads to the others. One of the worst captains weve had and i think it could be affecting his game
 
Another year passes and our front three is Johnson Son Werner as soon as I saw that team before kick off with that front three I just knew we wouldn’t win. The squad is very poor depth wise and a few injuries killed us last season and is killing bus again this year where we have more games
Put porro right wing bring it spence. Put lankshear up top with physicality and work rate. Theres things that could have been done but for some reason we dont
