    Rubbish. Self-hatred is still hatred.

    It was a naming rights issue. They built the training facility and then used the naming rights deal to circumvent the revenue raised by ticket sales sponsorship deals in relation to that new facility, which included the whole Etihad stadium.

    You're half Jewish? If your mother is Jewish you're Jewish, if your mother is not Jewish then you're not Jewish.

    No you're not a Dick, nor do you have one that qualifies as such. More of a Bell end I would say. <ok>

    Some Spurs fans are. I'll wait until the window closes and see what to think then. We've improved year after year with zero net spend so I'm not panicking yet.

  12. No, it isn't horse ****.

    For a side like Spurs, the game is all about survival.

    And survival, for Spurs, is about maintaining a revenue stream that meets our increasing overheads.

    We might not pay the best wages in the division, but our wage bill has increased significantly over the past few seasons. We have a new Academy and a new state-of-the-art stadium to pay for.

    Winning the FA Cup isn't going to pay for all of that.

    Winning a European title, as great as that would be, isn't something that any side can set out to achieve.

    Winning the title is something that very teams will ever achieve in any given decade.

    So, what are we left with?

    Finishing as high as we can in the league and trying to stay in the CL for as long as we can. That represents the best revenue stream for Spurs.

    If, in the process of striving to achieve that aim, we win a trophy that is a bonus. It isn't what the game is about.

    Can't say I've ever ranted over Spurs.

    I've laughed at them plenty of times, mind. :1980_boogie_down:

    <laugh> As plausible as your claims that Jamie Vardy's never dived! <ok>

  17. Who's claiming to be half Jewish?

    Skiddy?

    <doh>
    The only thing that he is half-and-half, is man and woman.

    That's anti-transvestitism... you should be ashamed.

    So then seeing as you've have said that Spurs need to openly adopt Arsenal's policy of developing youth whilst you pay for the stadium, you will naturally have to back track on your assertion that Arsenal simply finishing in the top 4 whilst doing this was a failure.

    Let's see how much you value that 'Top 4 trophy' over the next decade <ok>
