This is what managing a football team is about. Belief. Belief based upon understanding and valuing the assets on the books and endlessly instilling inspirational doses of that belief into the players.
We have been so widely acclaimed for the way we’ve played this season that many (I actually mean most of us) have had to invoke the old Derek Jameson line, ‘Do they mean us?!’
The quality, imagination and spirit of the Tottingham play has been frequently sensational. The boy Bale can leave any right back in the world needing psychiatric care. Azza is a wing heeled electric dynamo. Modric actually ups his game when they come at him in number.
Adebayor is one truly sophisticated predator. Sure if it bleeds you can kill it. But first you must make it bleed.
Rafa is one of the most intelligent, gifted and driven players in the Barclays Premier League. Scotty Parker the very embodiment of too many Tottenham ideals to even begin to list.
When the Lilywhites beat Cheatski and won the Carling Cup in 2008 they were actually playing a superior side with weaker assets. What won that day was desire and dare I say it, some deering do.
The mercenaries have now taken over the asylum at Second Hand Fridge and again it’s time for our lot again to demonstrate their inherent class.
They aren’t medal winners these days. They still chant Jose’s name into the cold night air …as a requiem.
The fact that their mob couldn’t beat us home or away this season is the yardstick. We will edge it. I’ll be delighted to watch us do just that.
BIOYCC!
One in Eight was not what we were thinking of when the gap was in our favour!
We were singing H’s name all year. Come on all you boys and girls over 45. We remember the real ‘BAD’ Times.
Get behind them on Sunday and sing your hearts out. The glass is still half full and be honest, we ALL would have taken 4th and an FA Cup Final last August!!!
COYS Forever.
Over 45? Over about 5 years’ old I think you mean, Leixlip… ;)
I hope harry can give the lads a similar pep talk…I with you, Leixlip – we will win; 3-1 and king will kick ass!

Unfortunately, Ledley is now a liability. Just like the unsackable King Kenny, who`s now run out of scapegoats, will eventually destroy Liverpool, so Ledley should be pensioned off before he meets too many like Grant Holt. Even this gooner thinks it`s tragic that such a gifted defender should have had his career so blighted. MTG!
There are a couple of big performances still left in his locker – wouldn’t be too quick to put out to graze, even at the advise of a gooner.
Thanks Mike, but no thanks – wasn’t too long ago, you were doubting your ‘Messiah’….
I am so shocked at our demise I dont actually care about this game………………yet!
Maybe that will change but the disbelief at our own demise will remain, with the players we have and the way we can play its a crime.
Bored… dont get it their motivation disappeared so has my interest
Help! I need my passion back and so do they
Know how you feel. One way of protecting yourself from the pain of the next false dawn is numbness. It makes it hard to get fired up for this though.
Though the bigger problem is our twat of a manager. His self-serving cretinous bile is embarrassing, and taking some of the pride away from me.
Cum on you facky Spurs, strongle the chav cants!
