Because it’s all true lmao. You can’t argue with the facts of it so you call it drivel. It’s really pathetic.

If another team had this run to a final you’d be calling them the luckiest cunts ever and saying they are total shit and only here because the EL is poor quality. It would all be true.
plus if we win this it will in no way get the trophy monkey fully off our backs. if europa stays as it is with no cl clubs dropping down, it's significance will greatly diminish year by year. i mean, just look at the clubs we went through. just look at the semi final aggregate scores. 12-2 by bottom dwelling english clubs? i know if any of our rivals were in our current position i'd never let them forget our glorious run through middle earth to the scrabble cup. i'll be very happy to win but folks are losing their minds over this just so they can prop up ange's bloated dead corpse and claim some personal vindication. it's pathetic really

It reminds me of that terrible Jose EL win as well, where they played Ajax’s kids in a final after beating I think Betis? And some other crap.

Sometimes the EL has a strong year. Sometimes the final is Frankfurt vs Rangers. Sevilla didn’t win this thing seven times but then never manage to get out a CL group because they’re a class outfit.

This final is 16th vs 14th. It’s two not very good teams. Celebrate it as a fucking win but absolutely no chance should anyone be giving Ange a reach around for beating Alkmaar, Frankfurt and Bodo. It’s actually embarrassing.
 
I am about as Ange out as can be, but who wouldn't celebrate winning a trophy? Not just to break the long spell without one, but also for the practical aspects. Champions League matters. It mattered a year ago when Postecoglou was downplaying it, and it matters now because of the revenue and how it increases the club's attractiveness to players on the market. I can live with Postecoglou going on about how everyone doubted him and he always wins and he never had any doubt. He's always on about something, and if he stays he'll just get himself fired next season anyway. If Spurs win it everyone, in or out, should take the time to enjoy it. Doesn't happen that often.
 
‘Embracing’ lmao - I don’t rate Amorim’s work so far but at least he is honest. At least he doesn’t have a pathetic victim mentality like Ange. At least he doesn’t show off his huge hurt ego in every press conference like Ange. At least he comes across as measured as intelligent.

If Ange had just beaten Bilbao 7-1 over two legs he’d be out in the press beating his chess like we’d won the premier league. He’s doing it after beating Bodo. A pathetic man.

I can’t wait till the cunt is gone and I cannot wait till the fanboys go with him. Hopefully we win a trophy and he can run off in to the sunset pretending he’s a genius for beating THIS United side. If not, at least we are still rid of his stench which is a trophy in itself
your pain and suffering won't end with Ange leaving, the stench comes from within it ain't going away

Nobody.

Everyone will celebrate it - I just won’t be bigging it up as a huge Ange masterclass or pretending I want him to stay because of it.

Some people will be bumping his thread and making apology threads and demanding he gets another season of this crap.

I’ll accept this EL for what it is, a huge slice of bloody deserved luck of the draw and of circumstance, and the players knuckling down for the Frankfurt tie. Nothing more or less.

The stench from within had us competing as high as 2nd/3rd and title challenging in the not too distant past, the stench from within has had us qualify for Europe more often than not during it's tenure, the stench from within has been a regular 4th to 7th at worst over recent years.

That might not be the height of the ambition for us that follow the club, but it's a damn site better than being in 16th place in the final knockings of the season.

The stench from within is why we're not winning league titles, the stench from within is not why we are currently thanking our lucky stars that the 3 promoted sides this season are the most abysmal trio the PL has seen in some time.

I was describing a more personal problem with the poster not the team

We're one game away from another Ange season...my blood runs cold...
 
My goodness. The number of keyboard warriors spoiling for a fight and aggressively jumping on anyone who does not share the exact same opinion, amongst fans of the same club, is truly shocking. This forum has become a manifest of bitter hate and ignorance.
There's nothing wrong with having your opinions challenged...or challenging someone else's. As long as it's done honorably, which is what happens in a vast majority of cases. Plenty folks on here are class individuals with enough wits about them to act right. I got a lot of respect for Nutter-Naylor Nutter-Naylor Bill Madrid Bill Madrid or Fattynomates Fattynomates (to name a few) for how they interact. God knows I disagree with the lad 100 times a day, but Richard Arlison Richard Arlison will always have a seat at my table too cause there is a decent chap behind the TFC persona.

But then you got some trolls and some who just can't help themselves, they gotta abuse you instead of engaging in healthy, constructive debate. Fuck me, I once got called a racist on here cause I said I weren't a fan of us signing Thuram and Cherki I think it was...when I'm bi-racial and was a Muslim before I gave up on religion. Like 30 mins ago I was called a child molester by someone for telling some other bloke who'd called me a cunt about 20 times that he was acting a kid.

I'll openly admit I too have lost my shit on occasions, but only when on the receiving end of insults and the likes. You come at me all guns blazing, there's no way I ain't fighting back. I'm a dead peaceful guy in real life, I friggin hate conflict, absolute loathe the thing, all I want is a smooth ride. But I still gotta respect myself at the end of the day, so you come at me with your hands up (figuratively), expect some resistance. For the record, if I ever snapped at someone who hadn't provoked me first, whoever that was, I apologise. I'm far from perfect, got flaws left right & centre...never gonna pretend otherwise.

But what I won't apologise for are my opinions, no matter how shite you may think they are. Plus, at least I'm no hypocrite. Been called a negative Nancy a zillion times between last night and today just cause I said that though I was buzzing about Bilbao, I wouldn't forgive Levy & Ange for the season as a whole. Find it funny how some who've bashed me good for speaking my mind are the first ones to blast a cap in real life but when they come on here they act all Mr Positive At All Times just to be popular and fish for likes.

Anyway, 'rant' over. Love to all, even to you harry7 😂 your commitment is admirable, I mean that 😘

COME ON YOU FUCKING SPURS🏆🥇

i'll be much more pleased with backdoor champions league qualification than this trophy. in fact, i'll be over the moon about it. not saying i won't be happy and celebrate the trophy but even winning this just doesn't compare to our finals run back in 2019. maybe i 'just don't get it' but i am in no way feeling the same this year that i did when we were tearing apart the world's elites.

the stench on this board comes from you assholes every time you come crawling back out after a win. i swear i've never despised fellow supporters as much as you ange in fucks. seriously, take a step back and consider some of the foul shit you say here. smdh
 
“What do you think a trophy would do for this club? The question answers itself, but what’s happening right now is that people are fearing that it actually might happen.

“Because it might happen, let’s see how we can tear it down or diminish it somehow by saying it’s been a poor season, or that we don’t deserve this or we don’t deserve that, or somehow comparing us to Man United.”
Now THAT is a load of drivel.

Ange speaks in gypsy curses.
