Jonathan Liew is a grumpy bugger ain't he?
Pay him no mind, the guy ‘supports’ both us and Woolwich:

From this piece: Vox in the Box: Jonathan Liew

“I can’t ever remember you saying who your team is…

Off the record – entirely off the record – Spurs. Actually, you know what, you can write that but you have to also write the full story. And that’s that my first team is Spurs and my second team is Woolwich. It’s a very clear one-two. They’re not joint favourites by any means, but I do like them both.

How does that happen?

I come at things very logically and rationally. And while Spurs is a very emotional thing, that came from school days, as I grew older I started to question ‘why do I instinctively have to hate Woolwich? I admire their manager, I admire their football.’ And Spurs and Woolwich are demographically the same, there’s no sectarian split there. They’re the same. They should merge. They really should merge. I’m a North London fan.

North London Rovers.

Yeah, North London Rovers. Spursnal. Arsenham. Do it. They should share a stadium. They should play in each other’s kits when they go away from home. That should be the next step. Woolwich should play in a white away kit and Tottenham should play in a red away kit. Eventually they’ll turn ever so slightly pink and then suddenly one day, nobody even notices, they’re both wearing the same colour shirt, with the same sponsor and they’re called Arsenham. That’s the dream.”

Some disgraceful shit right there. That’s why I’m not as down on Ali Gold as some others here since he’s one of the few people in the media who actually supports us
 
Just one of the first people I see on Sky Sports News this morning.

Something along the lines of 'Spurs fans would be wrong to think Frank is gonna fix everything'.

Struck me as one of those people who doesn't enjoy Christmas...or sex...or Grease 2.
lol.

Frank will hopefully stop us losing half our games. That’s a start. Will we win the league? No. Will we win a cup? Who knows. But he’s overachieved at Brentford with what he has.

Also Grease 2 is shit.

There are other threads to talk about the past. This is Frank’s thread and the future. The only people that now matter who may not be happy are the players. Romero apparently tweeted a positive Ange comment this evening. He is one of our best players and that may be a signal he will leave. As Son should no longer be a definite starter he should no longer be Captain and Frank should offer it to Romero to see if that persuades him to stay. I expect the rest will fall in line.
I know this is the Frank thread but I think Romero has been very canny by nailing his colours to Ange’s mast. He’ll have perhaps known his days were numbered and by aligning his staying to his ‘beloved’ manager he hopes the fans will have some compassion and let him leave.

Fingers cross Frank can get ahead of that and influence him in the way Ange couldn’t with Kane.
 
I've woken up with a spring in my step today. Feeling happy. The future is bright.

This will probably continue until we play our next game.
 
Does anyone else think that TF actually LOOKS 'Spurs'? To me (and I don't know why) he just looks right for us, like a well-fitting slip-on, unlike Ange the oversized loafer.
 
Calls for unity then launches into yet another Ange character assassination is certainly a novel way of trying to bring the fan base together :D
You are a joke Postecoglou is GONE if you and your fellow cultists still wish to worship at his alter feel free to join him on his next crusade. I'm not calling for unity I said I hope we get more coaching and less performative bullshit of the type you and the other feebes mainlined. You can do as you as you wish. I just don't want another horrendous coach selling feels to idiots. Vibes FC is dead. Enjoy Olympiakos 😃

This madness used to be a thing. It wasn't uncommon for folks to go alternate weeks to Spurs and Woolwich. 🤢 🤮
 
He wasn't lying about Postecoglou though .
He got blinded by going at Ange and just generally taking the piss but the overall message of the article wasn’t really wrong. People have been calling it a cult for a long time. Weird he listed lots of reasons why he was sacked, only to then turn around and go ‘they should’ve kept him though’
