Okay, your car unexpectedly passed the mot when you didn’t think it would!
You are happy for a week.
Next step…….sell that fucker before you put a ball of money into it.
You do not hold onto it , put a new set of Tyres and upgrade the brakes.
 
You think what he did in the championship matters now?

You spent the last 2 years saying what Ange did in Scotland was irrelevant. Even after winning the second biggest European trophy there is you are sticking to that but now Frank in the Championship matters?

You are a blatant gooner
And you're a blatant tool.

The Championship is much stronger than the SPL, but you wouldn't know, you don't actually watch games...including ours.

You calling Deut a gooner just cause he disagrees with you, you're so tiny.
 
If he gets sacked get vibe he will make a massive big deal over it and write a book or appear hard done by on aussie tv. Won us a trophy and thanks but cant go into new season where i fear relegation under him. I just think he simplfies it too much. Premier league is elite. You cant cut corners.
His pay off will be tied to a NDA for sure.

I reckon he’s more likely to be bullish about it than woe is me.
 
I do suspect that a lot of the vitriol of the usual suspects comes from them knowing that they can't take any real joy out of this trophy because it undermines everything they've said for 18 months. So all they have left now is the manager's scalp - because that's their only "trophy" left.

It is unfathomably sad for them. That night in Bilbao and the parade afterwards was joy injected into veins. Imagine not really truly being able to feel part of that because you called the manager a "fat cunt" cos you're so edgy...
😶🔫
 
It’s dumb as well.

Nobody cares if you called him a fat cunt, just b admit you are wrong and enjoy the moment every Spurs fan has been waiting most of their lives for

Well I do remember results suffering in the end of CL final run. And start of next season. But compared to anything Ange has shown in last 50 games in EPL this was phenomenal league form still.
Under Poch since the end of Feb to end of season when we played in CL final we got 11 points from 12 games (winning 3 drawing 2).
Under Ange this season we got whopping 1 win and 2 draws. So 5 points from 12 games.

Regarding Poch 18-19 team - it literally featured Winks and Sissoko in midfield for the final vs Liverpool. Neither of them would be no better than 5th pick right now. On the attacking side - sure Kane, Son and Alli at that time were far better than what we have now. Fullbakcs - that seasons Rose and Trippier vs Porro-Udogie-Spence - around same-same. Central defense was far better then too. So agreed- he had better starting XI overall, but not as much better than some people make it out to look. Absolutely not "lightyears ahead".

Yeah mostly fair - but he did exactly the same a beit with a very big cushion after a great start to the season.

Youre also forgetting Eriksen who basically was the difference in most of those non-losses during those 12 games.

Kane Alli, Son, Eriksen are lightyears beyond anything that we have starting for us going forward towards the end of this season - it doesnt excuse Ange but its kinda true man.

Payoff will be tied to an NDA so he can’t ever bad mouth club or directors, or if he doesn’t want to sign NDA would just get put on garden leave and be unable to work again until contract ended, and if he spoke out in period while on garden leave would be liable to sacked without any pay-off.
Also bad mouthing previous employers is not a great hep to get you a new job.
 
Fair enough, then maybe it's just me that doesn't seriously think we are at any risk of relegation.

There was a period this season where it started to get a little bit too much that way, and we responded with 3 wins on the bounce to basically ensure relegation wouldn't happen. I think we were safe after those games in February, which is just as well as we got 5 points and 1 win from the next 12 games.

But teams that beat City 5-0 away, United 3-0, Villa 4-1 at home, with some other big results in there, are not serious relegation candidates. Not impossible but clearly too good. Find me any team that got relegated that won 7 games by 3+ goals and I would be very surprised.
Anyone who seriously thought we could have got relegated last season is a 24 carat muppet.
 
I'm reading Ange has been interviewed on holiday about his position at the club and his reply was that he doesn't understand why his position is under question?
If there's any truth in this then the man is more of a deluded fool than I thought he was. Scary!
 

So you just want to keep being a football club that wins 2nd-rate trophies playing the proper wuss way, whilst doing awful in the league and FA Cup?

I just can't fathom how lonely and full of self-loathing anyone who calls themselves a Spurs fan must be to be so bitter about winning a European trophy they squat in their mother's basement pouring bile while 250, 000 actual Spurs fans just drink the joy in.

I wish you all the best, brother. Peace. :angecup:
