    That is not what you said though, is it. You said NOBODY.

    And I can't recall us losing any ore, either. Strange.

    1. Perhaps gooner4ever, in his bitter rantyness, forgot that
    deedub frequents Spurs 606. And he would never allow
    us to lose any "ore" .

    2. What is "area ore" anyway ?? Is it valuable ??
    Is it a market we should be investing in ??

    I've said 'no neutrals' so many times now that I thought saying 'no-one' was an obvious implication that I still meant no neutrals. Clearly it was not clear for you. OK then. No neutrals. Now we're clear and all happy.

    Spurs fans will remember this season for years. Neutrals probably won't. Yippee.

    Seriously lads this circular argument has been going on since the final whistle on Saturday. We're fast approaching 48 hours of repetitive opinions and to be quite frank @cini65 and @gooner4ever did you honestly think you would sway Spurs fans to laud your accomplishments this season over our own?! Go and start a chat with the "neutral fans" you're so obsessed with and whose opinion apparently defines the the objective success of a season. You'll find plenty of them on the Sunderland, Soton, Swansea, Hull, Newcastle and Leicester boards <ok>

    I hate to jump on my high horse, but this is genuinely as bad as the pages of bilge we had to endure from Leicester fans last season trying to convince us that they played the best football in all the land. Dozens of posts making exactly the same point albeit using slightly different emojis each time. This was one of my favourite threads on the board until now, but it has all got rather bitter, personal and nauseatingly boring. <sorry>

    I am replying to the first bit of rubbish of yours.
    Are you saying that I will have to endure reading several similar
    rubbish postings of yours before I see the words "no neutrals" ??

    Sorry to be pedantic on this, but :

    1. Leicester did.

    2. It was not the best football in "all the land" .
    It was the bestest football in ... the world. Ever.

    I know. I only realised the error of my ways after page 273. Forgive me for having taken so long.

    An easy mistake to make ( "no neutrals" would say otherwise) .

    Well I don't laud our accomplishments this season so I wouldn't expect you to. I'm talking about how memorable your season is. But no... I don't expect to stay your opinions. Just as you won't sway mine. So that'll do.

    Its funny because every year we get ' Arsenal and their fourth place trophy' abuse

    We get Liverpool and Spurs fans telling us how winning a trophy is more important than qualifying for the Champions League. This year we miss out on a Champions League place but still win a trophy. Suddenly all the Spurs and Liverpool fans are telling us finishing in the top four is bigger deal.

    I think that the opposite it true, honestly.
    Arsenal and in particular Wenger, have made the top 4 this big thing, even likening it to winning silverware.
    Now your fans are trying to flip it, because you missed out.

    Am I missing the point here, or is the key issue not that Tottenham got 86 points, playing some of the most attractive football seen in England for years, had comfortably the best defensive record in the league, and scored the most goals in the league, whilst being a season away from moving into the biggest, most state of the art stadium in the country, and having some of the most talented and prospering young players in the league on their books and committed to the club, whilst Arsenal had a pretty awful run of league results, and face the prospect of potentially losing their two best players and a manager who half of their fans want to leave anyway ?

    It's not so much, as I see it, a question of who won the FA Cup this season, but of who looks likely to be one of dominant forces in English, and potentially European football, for the foreseeable future.

    You DO NOT GET silverware for finishing in the top 4 !!??
    How else will the "neutrals" remember the 20 consecutive years that
    Wenger achieved this ??

    Wow, I am shattered by this.
    What next, you telling me the tooth fairy does not exist ??

    Gold Ore, 2 grammes a tonne and you should make money, 8 grammes a tonne and you can look forward to a years salary as a bonus at the end of the year. Less than 0.5 grammes a tonne, it's a waste of space, a bit like l'arse. Happy Thursdays goons.
