Angry Spurs fans in new meltdown

The violence at that time was what discouraged me from taking my kids. That and some of the sicker chants and language.

 

Is there any difference in one fan battering another for supporting another team and a board mod banning another innocent poster for merely supporting another team?

I think they are practically the same and the one deserves the same degree of public censure as the other.

It's just an opinion on a banter board. Please, don't send a lynch-mob after me.

 

Come on HIAG, even by your standards, this is a little below the belt.

 

Nothing is below my belt, Gutsy...

Err... I didn't mean that to sound like it did!

 

Fair enough.
I guess you are right. Football was not a family sport in late 70s/early 80s even though attendees such as myself were much younger as football was so cheap. I'd go to a game every weekend: Chelsea home and away, or Fulham Brentford.

Now football is so expensive it is all 40 year olds and 50 year olds.

Look at the bundesliga, crowds are much younger, noisier due to €25 tickets

 

In principle yes..exactly the same...if your biggest weapon is your fists and you use them or your biggest weapon is your buttons and you use them...yes..the principle is the same.

 

Prices are generally ridiculous, I agree. As I said, I was hoping to get to WHL one last time, but the prices being asked for tickets are farcical. So, I guess as long as clubs keep on allowing season ticket holders who rarely attend to keep selling their seats on places like Stubhub, and people are dumb enough to pay....!
It's up to the clubs, the police, everybody who loves the game, to try to build and maintain an atmosphere where the average guy feels safe in taking his kids to watch a game.

 

Exactly, Bruv!

Both are cowards, in my view.

One throws his fists knowing the odds are hugely stacked against the poor bastard who is on his own, and the other presses his little button with the finger of one hand whilst furiously beating himself off with the fist of the other hand, knowing that the innocent poster has absolutely no means of redress.

It's craven and it is cowardly.

 

So....where you been banned from this time HIAG?

 

i mentioned nothing about what one might do with his free hand Hiag..stop wumming

 

I don't even understand the guys who scream abuse at an opposition player for taking a corner.

It's never once crossed my mind to get angry and shout "BAINES YOU ****ING ****" because young Leighton is about to kick the ball into the box.

I'm more likely to get angry and shout "BLIND YOU ****ING ****" when young Daley's corner doesn't beat the first defender for the 7th time.

 

That's because you have to engage your brain before typing Tiny.

 

Thats why I liked the Arsenal game Vs Sutton when it was on the BBC.
The ground was so small you could hear everything on the TV.
I heard a fan shout "Xhaka ya ****in' knob" clear as day
Not sure whether it was a Sutton fan or Arsenal fan though

 

To be fair, us Spurs fans are beginning to get that way with Eriksen.

His goal during the week against Palace rather softens the effect, though, I suspect.

 

You have just raised the bar on making yourself look a tit ... from high jump to pole vault.

PS You've made the most banning requests on here if I recall correctly?

 

I think we can all agree with your hypothesis that HIAG's biggest weapon is almost certainly his buttons ... in any conotation

 

I get the restricted view seats in Matty Harding Lower: £23.50 or East Lower Family Section adults £36/kids £15 when I take the little un.

So that is very affordable. Otherwise tickets £56-£87 for adults,
