Eight out of ten for scraping fifth and going out of the cups at the first hurdle??? Because of transfer business?

Expectations of this fanbase are in the fucking mud it’s actually crazy. He’s been firmly in the alright category so far.

My expectations are high. We were one injury away from top 4 last season.
You and your dreary mates are the only few convinced the club is in the shitter.
Every week sell out crowds enjoying the way we play with only a few like yourselves bleating and moaning.

Oh wow, ONE INJURY FROM TOP FOUR!!

Everyone gets injuries. We didn’t beat a single London rival, we sucked in the cups and we held on to sixth by the skin of our teeth against an in crisis Chelsea team everyone was pissing their sides at all season. EIGHT OUT OF TEN!!

What do we get for a title challenge or actually winning something, a 12 out of 10?

But yeah, sell out crowds mate. Woopedy fucking doo. Maybe one day we will win something and by your ratings system I guess we will immediately name the place after the guy who achieves it.

We got 5th.
Are you sure you support Spurs? The season only ended a couple of months ago.

And we were closer to Villa in 4th than we were to 6th.

OK but some context here, matchweek 32 we were dead even with Villa in 4th, both on 60 points all to play for. We even had a game in hand. We were more than TEN points above all the teams in 6th or below.

The next 6 matches we got a woeful 3 points from, completely bottling it and needing to beat a relegated Sheffield on GW38 to secure 5th. We were 16 points ahead of Chelsea, I repeat, SIXTEEN, and only finished above them by 3.

It’s hardly something to champion.

8 out of 10? Squad turnover has been decent and we've got rid of a lot of players we needed to but still some dubious calls in there incoming wise like Solomon, Werner and jury out on Johnson and Veliz.

Results wise 6 out of 10 at best at the moment. Otherwise Poch and Redknapp are 10/10, Burkinshaw around 12/10 and Bill Nic would be coming in at 20s.

Yeah we had a pretty poor finish to the season didn't we. Tough draw admittedly, but still.

You looking forward to next weekend?

Oh no I said sixth instead of fifth by mistake ... you really got me.

8 out of fucking 10. Teams around us were having 2/10 disaster seasons yet 3 points behind us, and they got to finals and semi finals. I swear some Spurs fans are just the biggest delulu individuals in the entire world, the perfect fans really. Pack out a ground, grab a beer, achieve nothing, 8/10 if the footy was decent.

Amount of credit given for doing the basics (watchable football) is laughable.

Yeah congratulations on selecting a sample of competitive games in which we have played against Leicester, Sheffield and Burnley and ignoring the three we lost directly before that against Woolwich, Liverpool and Chelsea.

You know, the not championship level sides. Clown stuff.

I actually chose our actual last 4 games.
Very inconvenient for you and your fellow Eeyores.
