A Bullet Needs To Be Bitten

Good evening.

I have of late, but wherefore I know not, lost all my mirth. And indeed it goes so heavily with my disposition that this goodly frame, the earth, seems to me a sterile promontory.

This most excellent canopy, the air, look you, this brave o’erhanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire, why, it appeareth nothing to me but a foul and pestilent congregation of vapours. What a piece of work is a man! How noble in reason!

How infinite in faculties! How like an angel in apprehension. How like a god! The beauty of the world! The paragon of animals! And yet, to me, what is this quintessence of dust?

Man delights not me, no, nor women neither.

Nor women neither.

I know it was dismal. But what has happened to ‘us’ and ‘them’ I ask only as increasingly I am finding it nearly impossible to tell the two apart. It’s been like that for some time but the odd pieces of individual brilliance and what have you appear to have only served to keep the wolf from the door.

The burden of expectation in now greater than it ever ever was. Seat prices match this. But how does this remotely justify our home fans at The Lane being so awful?

Hotspurs Half Hour – Show 3 by hotspurshalfhour

I wasn’t happy with today. Of course I wasn’t and who would be?  But I’m truly saddened by the ‘Pot Noodle’ culture that seems to want to pollute reason. Online rubbish about ‘…back to Ramos’ , ‘…AVB is a [insert uninformed bile here]’ I can cope with. But at The Lane Tottenham Hotspur fans need to bit the bullet.  Forget the pseudo pinko communist clap trap of being ‘outraged consumers’ , are you with us or against us?

I’ll run an analysis on the actual game in the morning, but I tell you this, Jesus wept –  I’m more saddened by the performances off of the pitch today.

    Dembele is gonna be a monster.

  • Iain says:

    I dont boo but we were crap and unfortunately it IS reminiscent of the Ramos era.

  • Nottmspur says:

    Are you not concerned at all harry? Being the most ardent avb and levy supporter are you not feeling the panic?

  • TheheightsofDiamondLights says:

    So you mean it might take more than three games for a new managers ideas and tactics to bed in? Surely it is unreasonable of Mr Levy to expect us Spurs fans to wait any time at all…..oh if we’d have signed “insert name here” or kept good old ‘arry this would never have happened and we’d be top of the league…..the fact is the latter is probably true but for god sake, aren’t the haters bored of seeing us collapse every spring? Maybe, just maybe, the change will be worth waiting for …. But no, let’s not wait, let’s just boo that’ll make it better!

    It was a poor performance but if any of you on here were part of the booing at half time you are a disgrace!!! if you don’t want to support the team you could always sell your ticket to me or someone else who would give anything to be able to cheer on are team through thick and thin!!!

    • Sid says:

      Never boo. Always frustrated.

    • Armchair kool aid drinkers says:

      Says someone who didn’t buy a ticket in the first place

      If you love a band and you pay to go and watch them and they have a bad gig you dont boo. You have there CD at home and you know they are good and that your a fan. But if on the other hand the drummer cant be bothered, only plays with one hand and the singer sings half the song in ‘blah blah blahs’ then you are fully entitled as a supporter to boo or jeer or do whatever you like [within the law of course].

      These guys are all on astrinomical wages so should give it there best no matter what, even if they dont like AVBravo or the changes made or the pitch or the weather or any fecking thing.

      Levy is still the one to blame though if you strip it right back to bare bones.
