I've never heard it referred to as that, I think maybe I've heard oil referred to as black gold though I guess...
100%I'm not an Ange defender, but if Spurs somehow win the Europa League, would you say this season was better than any season under Poch?
I'm not convinced sacking him then helps us tbh.The best outcome is we sack the clown a few days before the final (IF we get there) and then win it.
The oafs I win stuff on my second season is thus demolished and serves him right after the Man City comments, cupping an ear to our supporters and throwing young players under the bus for his own inflated ego.
I have never despised a spurs manager until this idiot.
I've an awful feeling that if we win EL, he'll still be here next season...much less trouble for the bald goblin to declare a winning season and keep him...

I hate when Poch is regarded as a loser - like you say we had a great 11 and fuck all else and in the CL year we had WInks and Sissoko in the middle ffs. He wasn't backed properly until it was too late and we then panic bought a few players which ended up a disaster.This is nonsense. We had a great 11 and decent to middling subs when Poch was here.
The fact that he got us so close to winning the league with piss poor squad investment is a significant achievement in itself - and IMO did more for the club long-term than the unlikely event of Ange winning the Europa will do, in spite of Bald Cunt's priorities.
Ding ding dingAh, I see what you're up to.
An elegant sleight of hand.
So, after 18 months of remorselessly shilling for Ange and watching us plummet ever further down the table, you're now repackaging yourself as an arch-pragmatist, so you can laud an EL win as evidence of you having backed the right man.
Still give slight benefit of doubt to maddison for one more season with a better coach. Conscious he joined us from a relegated team though and treated us like a holiday camp. Romero falls in the holiday camp scenario as well.Maddison better shut up, he's in no position to talk after two shit seasons.
Should never have signed him. Was so obvious but our club doesn't even know the meaning of due diligence.

Because he's never given up on his dream of that fraud actually being a competent manager and he'll burn anything he needs to defend itYou were the person who spent most the season flip flopping about sacking the useless sack of shit that is Ange. The fact that you do not rate what Poch did for us either tells me you are a child or just an idiot. What is the point of degrading the most enjoyable time in recent years to be a Spurs Fan.
He simply cant be here next season. At the point of no return now. Even if media gloss it about Ange. We will get relegated otherwise next season with Ange in charge. Champions league would be a waste of time as well.I've an awful feeling that if we win EL, he'll still be here next season...much less trouble for the bald goblin to declare a winning season and keep him...
I wonder if gladiators who'd only ever competed in friendly tussles against their mates in Australia & Japan were chucked into the Colosseum and if they were, I wonder who would have put a few denarii on them..The whole goal of sport is winning.
A gladiator in the ring doesn’t win they die. Modern sport is more civilized than that but the same rules apply.
Sure there are other things to get from being B involved in Sport, like friendship, camaraderie, health benefits etc but the goal is winning.
If you didn’t win it wasn’t success. You can also make a great case that sports teach you how to deal with failure because normally people don’t win all the time.
It’s only in the biggest pro leagues where you get these oligopolies with the same clubs winning all the time.
I'd beat your drum

Probably the same sort of mug who'd simultaneously back a fraud to be in charge of this club despite his beyond mediocre background whilst now extolling this militant view that winning is all that matters and which means the Jol, Harry & Poch years were a waste of time, very bizarre logic.
But easy to understand when seen through the lens of someone who thinks there's Prem level managers hiding out in Japan & Australia, in other words the lens of a mug who won't admit he was completely wrong.
I read your post earlier as saying you've been a season ticket holder and giving levy all your money since covid.
Did I read it backwards?
