Their fans moan about their own fans more than other club. Their forums are absolutely full of them whinging about the Anfield atmosphere and how its not like the old days of the kop.

I recall them booing their own team when Benitez was manager after a 1-1 draw which kept them 2nd in the league and about a point off the top place.

They’re hardly the best example to compare to.

I don't like the booing during the game. I think it makes the players even more nervous and encourages the opposition.

But I don't like the players having a pop about the booing. More than happy to come over when they have done well to milk it.

Agreed. Porro is a bigger bell than the boo-ers if anything tbh.

They've just had their sacks hauled off by Fulham at home ffs. Did they expect a few nights at a 5* training ground with climate controlled rooms, michelin star quality food and free massages and entertainment (that's actually what they will get for that horse shit they served up)

Was it Conte or Mourinho who commented that the training ground might be too nice? It's a pussy sanctuary or refuge if you will, as far I can tell.
 
Beni said:
You did reference it, though. You said “The people who are booing have been paying top dollar to watch this charade for 6 consecutive seasons now.” That is, in plain terms, using price to justify the booing. Then you doubled down by saying “These millionaire footballers are actually a fucking disgrace. Cyrille Regis, and many other professional footballers, have had to deal with genuine injustice without the benefits and rewards that many modern players now take for granted.”

Those are actual quotes you said and that exactly the comparison I was responding to.

So no, I’m not inventing anything.

While I disagree with boo-ing, what is wrong with the feeling of dissatisfaction being correlated with the amount paid for tickets? That seems logical and reasonable to me. However that dissatisfaction is expressed.
 
Should be dropped for his poor performances rather than his comments, but I expect Frank to double down and keep picking him out of defiance.

They are creating a 'them against us' situation with the fans and there will only be one side that will never depart the club with their tail between their legs.

Do you mean we (the fans) will stay, but with our tails between our legs? I don't have a tail, but tbf if I did, then as a Spurs fan that is where it would spend most of its time.

We’re all a fickle bunch.

I guarantee if you if he smashed one in from 30 yards, we’ll all be loving him again and he’ll be kissing the badge and celebrating it.

It’s the nature of the game.

Not for me mate not this time. It was trying to use a kid fight his fucking battels. He's entered the Hossam Ghaly club for me He needs to be hitting double figures goals to get clear. He's shit and thick and a bit sneaky.
 
This has gone on far to long he Needs to be sold.. he's a fucking liability.. it ain't rocket science, opposition managers stick a half way decent wide player/ winger on him and he/were well on the way to being f@@ced...
And his set plays aren't anywhere near consistent enuf to warrant a start.
CASH IN put Spence in imo he's better all round.

Oh and I don't give a flying f'''c what porro says...but his performances aren't good enuf for the shirt

Yeah. He is a great striker of the ball. And he usually does play with passion and intensity. But any oppo that knows what they are doing and has a decent LW can dominate this guy.

Frank and Porro will both likely be gone within 5 years whereas we, the fans, will be stinking the place out for decades - until death for most of us.

Frank will move down after us almost certainly. Porro, I suppose there's a slim chance a big Spanish side might fancy him in a side where he has all the space in the world to play in but can see him moving down in terms of stature too.

I think they are both at the highest point they will be in their careers in terms of club stature and salaries. They would do well to recognise that.

I agree with that. Actually think Frank will do quite well wherever he goes. He has the Denmark job in him I would think. And/or a smaller PL team. He just couldn't overcome the 5* hotel / training ground pussy complex at THFC

Bloke has been playing like an absolute donkey recently. He needs to shut the fuck up and get his head down.
He's incable of passing to a bloody white shirt lately. Last few games has been shit cross after shit cross; giving the ball away cheap; misplaced passes; erractic defending; the list goes on.
He's been absolute wank and shouldn't even be starting games. Nothing I hate more than someone with a lot to say but nothing to back it up on the pitch.
Can't stand the heat? Then piss off you indulged, entitled little diddums.

He has a 74.1% pass completion this season. Every other spurs defender is 8% above that.

He’s an average defender who massively overrates his right foot.

Very frustrating. Part of the problem right now and not the solution.

I assume because a lot of his passes count as crosses and kicking it down the line, he's Frank's go to to get the ball up the pitch which tells you a lot.
