Yeah I think you’re right about that. Amazing what a football club and 11 blokes kicking a ball around can do to a persons brain. Looking forward to going today, it’s going to be great to be back. Any time we are pissed off with life or the team then we just need to look back on all this and hope it helps. These moments of glory are what we’ve waited for.

Spider man was always Tobey Maguire. Mug.
Exactly the same here Mrs P can’t stop trawling through footage and media -,best image I’ve seen is aJonson instagram post as he runs to the crowd after scoring / right at the front of the crowd are my 2,sons in a state of delirium - priceless - after today gonna need the 3,months off to recover Coys
Loved seeing Vic’s folks outside the Guggenheim. And the spurs boat was immense! Wasn’t in it but enjoyed the singing, joining in from the bank and them wankering random Man U fans!
Nutter-Naylor ,
Shades ,
tart - see you're all up nice and early, ready for the day ahead. Hope to see you all later, so we can give KentuckyHotSpur a warm TFC welcome to The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the world famous home of the Spurs!
Hope to be up there around 13.15pm give or take.
Ain't no party like a Yids Club party.
I got tickets when they went on sale. 60 euros the most expensive. So not too bad even though it is a friendly. Thought it worth a go as I’ve always wanted to go to Munich even though I can’t stand them as a club.

One of many, many great things about our win on Wednesday is the sense of reconnection with our history.
Someone mentioned a few pages back that it’s highlighted our status as first British winners of a European trophy.
I’ve noticed something else too - it’s our 18th major trophy and people outside of Spurs fandom have started to take notice. This time last week the ‘hilarious’ banter from opposing fans was “hur, hur, trophies” - and no amount of saying we were actually one of England’s most decorated clubs cut through.
Now, that history is *current*, it’s alive, it doesn’t feel a bit tragic to point to our long-dormant trophy list - we have a whole pile of major trophies and we’re still going.

That's exactly what I was thinking!
The joy of others that we finished 17th in the Premier League and the hatred and envy that their hopes that we would leave the pitch in Bilbao as absolute losers can be further incentive to change course!
Yes, yes - we only won the game because United were so bad! Or maybe it was the weather!
The game showed me that Ange and his team tactically took the opponent out of the game.
No constant high attacks, a bombastic defense, the fans as the 12th man behind them!
They can do it! They work as a team! The 1-0 lead wasn't held on to. United gambled away! Lads, it's Tottenham - exactly! THAT'S TOTTENHAM - you idiots from United!
The team can trust itself; new players will join next season, others will leave. The "Bacillus - Lads, it's Tottenham" can become a trademark in a positive sense.
I hope the plague of injuries is over!
The team has reason to be confident going into the next round!
Stay with me here. This classic Aussie song is all about mate ship and overcoming adversity. I think it’s quite apt.

Forest win vs Chelsea imo and they have no CL football.
We get CL football via the EL.
Longest held payback ever but it would feel great.
They’d be royally fucked without CL money
Please let teh football gods keep smiling on us. Chavs lose their next two games and it would be beautiful.
I didn't do a pre-match or post match report . I think it was the celebrations and not getting home until 2am , I watched it at the stadium , I still have a sore throat . So It completely slipped my mind . A single goal clinched it and we're champions of Europe Once again after a 41yr wait . The open top bus parade was busy at 10;30am . We got there early to get a good vantage point and it paid off , I was right opposite the stage . Sonny did a speech and Johnson kept coming back again and again raising the trophy and getting cheers . We've written our name in the history books once again . Never forget that we are The Mighty Tottenham Hotspur from the Lane ............Yid Army

I’ll be there an hour before but getting to you from the Paxton end will likely take 3hrs
I've always felt connected with the club's history and one of the things I've noticed is that a lot of patterns repeat themselves. If you read about the period of our longest trophy drought between 1921 and 1951, you'll find a lot of similarities between how the club operated then and how it operates now.
It looks like Ange is on course to be the Arthur Rowe to Pochettino's Peter McWilliam.
I've told you a million times - don't exaggerate!I’ll be there an hour before but getting to you from the Paxton end will likely take 3hrs
Enjoy mate, how did you become a spurs fan?Thanks for the welcome!! I won’t even quibble w Kansas/Oklahoma references!
My wife and I are heading there around 12:30, arrival around 1:30!
Both incredibly excited!
Was excited just to see a game and our stadium in person. But to do it while celebrating our beautiful EL trophy?! Unbelievable!!
See you there! I’m the guy w a graying beard, glasses, a Kulu jersey, and the Louisville Spurs scarf!
