17. You wince a little at mispronounciation of players’ names, and have to hold yourself back from saying “It’s ‘Bun-YAYve-chevick’ and ‘Mod-ritch’, you bloody clot!”.

To be fair, I don't think that there is a Spurs fan out there who doesn't think back to David Pleat and wince every time they remember him stumbling from mispronounced name to mispronounced name on live TV...

I think my favourite was Andy Gray getting to grips with Wayne Rainey back in the day.

I read 1 and 2 and thought well fuck me he has me pegged. But to be fair my favorite is the 1-0 San Siro because I was at the Bricklayers for that one so shove #8 up your ass... And that is when my favorite player arrived on the world stage though...

yes fam, it says if you rinse next mans for rocking colours and then you wear some off key old school kit when you play 5s with your bredrins dem.

Good point. I guess with a lot of the points it's not the thing itself which makes someone a hipster but rather the pretense of authenticity. Much like the 40,000 Chelsea fans who all claim to have been there when they were getting sub-10,000 attendances!
