Match Tottenham vs Brighton Sunday 25th May 16:00

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

The other amusing thing about the Brighton fans down playing our EL win is the mental gymnastics they are going through to see all the permutations for them to get into the Conference League.

It can happen apparently, they only need 4 or 5 things to go their way.

It's strange actually because I live in Sussex so I know loads of BHA fans and almost to a man they are decent but I suppose social media brings out the worst in people.
 
The European spots. Normally 5 in league + both cup winners if not in top league positions. This year extra CL position + us + presumably Chelsea if they win Conference and do not qualify through league position. So as Brighton at best can get 8th ( they only need a draw) and Palace & Us are out of the top 8 does that mean if Chelsea qualify through their league position that we still get an extra space?

It's complex, read this article

I tried working it out from NSC but I gave up.

Found it. Forest need to beat Chelsea, Brighton need to get a point, Chelsea need to win the Conference League and Villa need at least a point.

QED.

Amazing how the media narrative has changed in the matter of days.

Spurs come 2nd and 3rd for several seasons and it's 'warra trophy'.

Spurs win a trophy and get CL and it's 'but you are 17th in the league so you don't deserve it'

They are not even trying to hide their hatred for Spurs these days.

Didn’t you know… we only won the Double because the people reading the score were on LSD. It wasn’t anything to crow about.
