10% Villa - Spurs and ideas above their station
« on: August 20, 2010, 11:58:21 AM »
These mugs in the press will listen to anything old bagpuss comes out with

Unconvincing pre season

Should have beaten a directionless Man city - although that is more a comment on city than Spurzzzz

And a piss poor opening 30 mins against some losers from Switzerland (although they will be favourites for the return leg)

Now its resurfacing that A.Young is on Appy Arries radar

Oh and they all lapped up Arry talking up Spurz title challenge this year - how did they all keep a straight face

How are Spurs any better equipped for a title challenge than any club around them - including us, yet the fucking mugs in the media print this shit

Early KO in the Champs league and i have already bet with 2 spurs fans i know that we will finish above them again

the bias does my head in

To be fair, they played well against Man City last weekend. A three- or four-goal victory would not have been unfair. Away legs in Europe can be tricky, I don't think we should read too much into that.

Redknapp's comments about challenging for the title were ridiculous, though, and probably stemmed from hubris induced by their admittedly impressive finish last season.

Tottenham can beat anyone when they are 100 per cent. But they play a very intense game. This may cost them when they have to play two games every week (whether in CL or Europa League). One of the things that separates Chelsea and Man Utd from the rest of the supposed title contenders is that they can play at 70 per cent and still win. When Spurs do that, they lose home to Stoke.

I can't be arsed with getting my knickers in a twist over Redknapp but talk of a title is fanciful to put it mildly.

My Father supports Spurs and he's convinced they've always been a bigger club than us. Not that I want to open up to old Villa/Spurs club size debate, but I'm fairly sure he's talking bollocks.

The fact that it's taken them since 1992 to recah the dizzy heights of 4th in the Premiership says it all.

Tell old saggy chops they are no way near challenging for the title and just hope they get swiss rolled in the second leg.

I had this argument wit some clown a few years back.  They always bring up the fact that they've had all these so-called great players, yet neglect to mention that it was usually at the back-end of their careers.  And as for their trophy list, it's all cups and hardly any titles.

Never has a team had such over inflated opinions of themselves.

They're a good side.

The hype comes from the London biased media and Sky.

Spurs are a fine club with a sizeable support. People might not like Redknapp, but he's done a decent job so far.

Spurs and Spurs fans have always had delusions thinking that they're bigger and better than they actually are. Take no notice of them, they are just like a skinny man thinking he's some sort of UFC fighter.
