the scum used that badge when they were half-decent.

Too late to change now, we're stuck with them.

Putting issues relating to context aside, it seems to me in all this that:

Arsenul are laughing at us because we didn´t mind the gap after they punched us silly at the Emurates and pipped us to third place, despite our 10 point lead over them.

Chelsea are laughing at us because they lorded a 5 - 1 win over us at Wembley and then went on to deny us of a place in the CL, while they polish their FA and CL cups.

Not only this, but Liverpool are laughing at us as well, because they engendered a new UEFA rule that benefitted them and posthumously fucked us in the rectum, like an ultra-long-range fire-and-forget missile-dildo, while THEY polish their League Cup.

This is what we get for starting the "Come here if you want to laugh at..." threads.

It´s enough to make me want to kill myself. This is 10 times worse than Lasagne Day.

For JESUS' BICYCLE'S sake, no-one start a "Let´s all laugh at West Ham" thread, or I may have to start writing a will.
Sometimes, people forget this isn't a private forum.

Although, even if those threads hadn't been made, we'd have got grief in some shape or form.
 
I blame 'MIND THE GAP' ...it all started going wrong from that day forward...

whoever started has got a lot on his conscience! Whoever kept it going has a lot to think about this Summer!

PUT SIMPLY; SPURS DON'T DO GLOATING... WE DO PLEASANT SURPRISE!

I had a laff participating in all those threads, don't regret it, and don't for a second think they somehow karmically punished us for being proud of our team, for being proud of our style of play, for being proud about who we are.

Frankly, I'm too busy avoiding stepping on pavement cracks to reduce myself to that kind of superstitious lunacy.

So let those mugs all laugh. They only think they have the last one. The cockerel will be back again next year, hopefully (and why not?) better than before. We've shown we can dance.

Now let's show we can lead.

Leave running from shadows and whimpering for shutins and groundhogs. You lose all of the games you never even try to play.
 
When faced with the mocking from 'My boss the Gooner' and his cohorts this morning I had but one reply.

'Before you continue, there have been two deaths this weekend, football and Robin from the Bee Gees. Feel free to go on, but if you do it will make you a cold man.'

Needless to say, the baracking continued...

Um, what did I do to you for you to pick on my post? :p
I'ma tear these walls down!

I have to pick one post to provide context for what I want to say, no? Anyway, the point is larger than either your post or mine. I'm sick of the cognitive dissonance on this board sometimes, though I think we are working to over come it.

Either we're tottencan't and are all "boo hoo, we got robbed again, our lives are misery, we'll never find happiness, there's conspiracies, we should sue to fuck over a team from Moldova, I miss mommy's boob!"

Or we're TOTTENCAN, and we're all, in the words of the hologram, "Who shot me / But your punks didn't finish / Now you 'bout to feel the wrath of a menace".

... This pains me to say, but I blame Ronald Reagan.

If his blasted Star Wars and arms buildups hadn't precipitated the Soviet Union's collapse, Abramovich would still be a pauper.
And Chelsea wouldn't be rich cunts. They'd just be cunts, with a miserable fanbase.

GOD DAMN YOU BUTTERFLY EFFECT!

I'm going to blame old white dudes (some of whom are now dead) from my university for basically inventing the shock doctrine which allowed such oligarchs to emerge in Russia.

I'm also blaming Al Gore for not putting up a bigger fight in the 2000 recount, because the US would all be on solar/wind now, and the fossil fuel plutocrats would have found their prestige diminished.

I blame the Bolsheviks, if they hadn't revolted, they wouldn't have left a monolithic state ripe for exploitation by the oligarchs when it inevitably failed...
