Match We can be heroes part two Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester united UEFA Cup final. Bilbao 21st May

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I like the fact one of the TFC OGs created this thread.

A fitting thread starter for an end to our trophyless spell.

Crazy to think this place has been going for almost 15 years.
You’d get less time for manslaughter!!
 
It’s crazy as this season was making me fall out of love with the club, it was miserable watching us but that night in Bilbao was such a buzz and I’m still
Dining out on the win and fully intend to keep it that way for as long as I can.
It can be depressing being a Spurs fan but I wouldn’t change it for the world!

The turnaround was mental.

Went from me and my oldest friend nearly packing in our season tickets to one of the greatest times of my life out in Bilbao together.

Collectively we all needed that
 
Your one of my favourite poster. I can not believe how utterly wrong you are. This magic thinking is,going to do us real harm. This is the best time to move forward from the Ange experiment. He can leave with his head high, If we wait it will be ugly after ten games on the same ppg we have been taking. I still think we will let him go, and we should.
Appreciate the comment mate. The thing is...I can't say I disagree with much or anything you say really.....I know logically it makes a ton of sense to get rid sooner rather than later...like now-ish....I'm admittedly caught up in the whole sentimentality of it all, it's just a very strange strange situation to be in considering the circumstances.

Something I've said a couple of times in the past is we're not quick enough and ruthless enough in making a firm judgment on players we bring in either on loan or permanent. We've shown time and time again we're not good at getting rid and cutting our losses when they've not cut the mustard . On the one hand if we'd been more ruthless with Ange, would we have been celebrating an EL trophy with another manager at the helm? Unlikely, I think.

Anyway, I've hated watching us under Ange (for the most part) as much as the next bloke on here - but the level of this recent achievement seems to be hijacking the logical part of my brain.... The Brighton game was an ice cold reminder of whats to come... and I think, unfortunately for Ange, that loss was the final FINAL straw that I think has given Levy the green light to feel he can get away with sacking him without getting an enormous hounding by us fans.

This is a bit controversial, but maybe it's because it doesn't happen that often that this has been so special.
If we did the quadruple, I'd probably walk away as it would never be better after that.

I was thinking this earlier. We are still basking in the glory of last Wednesday 1 week later and rightly so. We have had to wait 17 years for this moment, which makes it so special. Obviously we do not want to wait another 17 years for the next one, but also I do wonder whether celebrating trophies, especially the domestic cups, has become a bit mundane for say City fans and United back in the day. I don't ever want to feel immune from celebrating and enjoying the moments like we have which will only probably happen by trophy wins every so often, not every season.
 
Everytime I watch the highlights, I expect Micky to kick the ball into the net and then to score from the last minute corner!
Still basking in it and I keep getting messages from people I haven't seen for ages, saying they saw me on BBC news at the parade.

I cannot articulate what it means. The absolute relief.

Then, a change.

On the attack banter wise. Loving it.

It has killed the gooners I know. Broken.
 
It was a dream mate. Half hour to kick off.

Ok, so that's never going to happen Mrs P, not in infinite parallel universes. It's safe to say, and I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news...but you'll never be able to walk away from this club...
