How strange that only a few miles from you, hundreds of miles from the actual match, my love for Spurs started at this match too.
Most blatant multi ever

TBH it all changed for me when Wenger took over.
I'd grown up like the rest of the world knowing that the scum always played functional , boring football, and their supporters actually recognised that and crowed about it ' One Nil to the ', you know the song.
After about a couple of seasons of Wenger they all ditched their history and suddenly pretended to be footballing
connoisseurs who had always loved the beautiful game.
The first plastic cunts for me, I've hated them more ever since then.
I suppose it's not as fierce as it's probably been in the 1920s.is this time in history as intense as it's ever been?
Credit me with a bit of....Most blatant multi ever

This.Yeah ridiculous that they talk about "the Woolwich way" now - it's only one managers style of play.....the previous 25 managers all set them up like Tony Pulis would
How strange that only a few miles from you, hundreds of miles from the actual match, my love for Spurs started at this match too.My time supporting Tottenham started in the 81 cup final first game televised game I remember watching other than Scottish cup finals and Scottish internationals! And was hooked but to me it was just a football match and a team playing in white winning a cup final! Everything associated with totttenham came much,much later history,great players,rivalries etc! Which brings me to my point the rivalry with Woolwich goes back decades for many obvious reasons! But as a supporter in more recent times the loathing,hatred has been quite intense again for obvious reasons, but is this time in history as intense as it's ever been? Was it worse in the 60s,70s or 80s?
