Well let's hope West Ham are equally as poor., although there are some posters who will want West Ham to win because that's the kind of thig they want to see.

Had we won today it would have hurt them and their narrative.

Stop talking out your arse and making shit up.

NOBODY on here wants spammers to win. People believing they are showing more fight and are more likely to get results is not wanting them to win you plum.

Grow the fuck up.

Because form is temporary but class is permanent.
And while our players aren't as good as we want them to be, they're a class above those at Leeds, Forest, and West Ham.

And that will prove out in the run in. One if those clubs might collect more points than we do. Maybe even 2. But all 3 will not.

This all seems very "trust me bro".

We're not talking about a Spurs squad accustomed to fighting at the top end of the league with a track record of "class", we're talking about a team who over two full years have been woeful. We finished 17th last season and as we're finding out it seems that wasn't a freak accident.

When does form become the norm?
 
Been supporting spurs for just shy of 40 years now and I can honestly say this is the worst I've seen us.

I don't see us winning another game this season.

I really hope either West Ham or Nottingham Forest are equally fucking shite.

I'm not sure our players are better than the teams around us. I don't think Vicario, Solanke, Gray, Dragusin and maybe a few others start for any of them.
 
Dont think we will get relegated, not because we aint shit, cos, we are really shit.. I just dont see those below us scraping together enough points to overhaul us. Reckon we will pick up a point here and there, just enough to keep our heads above water.

But, feck me, the whole thing needs a massive shake up in the summer regardless. We are a laughing stock and it is sad how far we have fallen.

Are the players actually able to get in the pitch “a class above” is the more relevant question.
 
Today scared the shit out of me. It shouldn’t have surprised me but it did.

Beating Woolwich was always a bit of a fantasy, but when Tudor came in I thought, our real season was really gonna start from today.

We’ve chucked away plenty points this season with stupid mistakes and from adopting too negative an approach in games we should be winning, but I put that down to Frank.

But today, the day that the fightback was meant to start, we got absolutely played off the park by Fulham. Fulham ffs. We looked like relegation fodder. Like a team that has just come up from the Championship for a one-season jolly. There was never a point in that game where I thought we were gonna claw our way back into it, not even when we scored.

It was two teams of a completely different level coming up against each other, where we just looked like we simply could never compete. That’s one thing when you’re up against the top sides in the league, but when it happens against Fulham, holy fuck it’s scary.

Today’s made me realise that I really don’t think these players have it in them to survive a relegation battle. They don’t have it in them to fight and scratch and claw their way out of this situation. There’s no pride there. Just a group of players who feel sorry for themselves about the horrible way the nasty fans have had the audacity to treat them like. Who don’t like the managers the club have brought in, so won’t bother their arse to even make an effort.

We’re fucked I think. Too many bad, bad personalities in that squad. Forest and West Ham have enough characters that have the fight in them to drag themselves out of trouble at our expense.

Boys like Bowen, Callum Wilson, Gibbs-White, Anderson will pull them out of it by the scruff of their neck. We don’t have anyone like that.
