Woolwich!!

That word autocorrects to Woolwich as you've noticed. Good luck to you lot as well.
Hey everyone, another Swans fan here.
Spurs have long been my second favourite team in the prem, mostly due to the the attractive football played by your team and the sort of 'underdog' feeling whenever I watch a match. Players like Christian Eriksen and Heung Min Son (sorry if I spelt their names wrong) are a joy to watch especially our very own Welsh legend Gareth Bale working his way up your system from Southampton even when your team lost every match he played in. You stuck with him and I still remember the game where he scored that magical hat trick against Inter Milan.
I had hoped you would pip Leicester to the title (back stabbing snakes) but even then to come 3rd and then 2nd in this league while maintaining financially unlike Manchester City or Chelsea really does give the underdog feeling to me despite you obviously being a big club (bigger than Woolwich anyways). i'm still recovering from THAT game (you know which one I'm talking about)
Alfie Mawson is a star in my eyes. If you don't get him for 30 mill now, I swear next season if he carries on the form and maturity he clearly possesses every game he will be worth double that. He's already shown much more than John Stones (who?) and bossed it for England U21's. However I must admit he wouldn't be near 30 mill if he wasn't English.
Tom Carrol is honestly just a brilliant player. Fair play to your manager Pochettino (who I admire a lot) he always keeps his players in shape even ones barely cracking the bench. Kyle Naughton is just an average player although he is decent sometimes but he really depends on not feeling down. Wayne Routledge is a brilliant squad player but is getting on now in terms of age and needs replacing. Still good to have around.
Sigurdsson is undoubtedly the hardest working player and best striker of dead balls I've seen in a long while. However in my opinion he wouldn't suit you because he would play second fiddle to Alli, Eriksen etc and he is much better suited to being a big fish in a small pond.
Anyway, enough from me now, enjoy the new season coming up ahead! :dierpochhug:
Crawler!
Never under estimate the power of someone else's greed. Always admired Jenkins and what he did at Swansea, biggest part was to bring in the Trust and have them on the board, very, very envious of them at the time. Playing attractive football on the pitch too and whatever they were instilling at the club, it was impressive that players like Briton were loyal and that also rubbed off on the Spanish players that Martinez brought in as well.
But just look at what happens when the smell of money enters the room, what a fucking cunt Jenkins turned out to be, devious little fucker, him and the board that sold their shares. (Reason why this gets my veins pumping is I've experienced this level of greed personally when dealing with shareholders of a company I was involved with a few years ago. Don't know why I'm posting this other than to act as a warning, get everything buttoned down from day one when the pie is sliced up, not just the equity but the reasons and circumstances for sale of it).
