    Haha I genuinely find it funny as ****, it's definitely entertaining, that's why I persist. I'm a bit of a dick and a wind up merchant myself on the forum, I just usually don't go up against other Spurs fans!

    I don't think it's Piskie or Ginge. I think by now one of them would've claimed "rattled" on the Prem board, besides Piskie especially is way too busy dealing with HIAG to have any spare time to come over here as a sock <laugh>. I think DGC are who they say they are, a couple who I presume take turns posting under the account, although as to whether they truly are Spurs fans... That remains to be seen. If they are, very "out there" views.

    So why not Conte? Oh by the way PNP, Dier mocked the possibility of Howe.

    You sure about that? I think you've gotten me mixed up with another poster, I'm a huge fan of Howe.

    Picture at NWHL in a Spurs shirt, holding up a sign saying "I'm not Piskie or Ginge" with a hashtag underneath saying #ILoveHarryKane.

    On the contrary, different views are brilliant and I can even understand if people said Poch out, I wouldn't agree with it but I'd understand it. But suggesting we sell Kane? Sorry, DGC, that's just something a Spurs fan really wouldn't say.

    What was it,1971 when Chiv scored 2 goals to beat Villa in the league Cup? Didn't Ralph Coates score the only goal of the match in the same final against Norwich in 73? Wolves in the UEFA Cup final in 72.

    I saw Don McAllister who was signed from Bolton by Terry Neill. My first match was 1970 when Peters scored to beat Liverpool 1-0.

    In 1971 before I went to Hong Kong Alan Mullery missed a penalty against The Baggies, why he took them I don't know. I was in Newcastle when Alfie Conn scored a hat trick in a 2-5 win. Knowles and Duncan scoring the others. I also saw Hoddle's volley against Forest, 1978 i think to beat them 1-0. I was at White Hart Lane. I've never been to Stamford Bridge.

    Because there is a lot of bullshit spoken in football...we were never ahead of Leicester (unlike Arsenal) yet everyone ignores that and instead called us bottlers.

    The following seasonwe won 12 out of our final 13 matches but could not catch chelsea yet 12 wins out of 13 constituted bottling it.

    Last season and his season we have not played at home yet have been fighting tooth and nail for top 4 and have made an FA Cup semi final and a league cup semi final and a CL quarter final yet we get called bottlers.

    It has nothing to do with us and everything to do with bullshit.

    Hope that helps

    His time at Chelsea, their ongoing legal clashes and the whole match-fixing scandal that he was involved in.

    You want the Fat Spanish Waiter or Conte (who turned a title winning team into a 6th place team in 12 months) and you wish we'd up our standards <laugh>

    Yes but he bitched like **** about it the next summer.

    There is zero chance that Levy would employ him. Wenger would get the job before Spurs appointed Conte.

    That's a bit misleading though, for two reasons.
    The first is that you sold Oscar to China for an overinflated £60m.
    The second is that you also sold Salah for £14m! <laugh>

    Plays down both the total spent and the damage done.

    Thanks DH for making the case for sanity here today.

    I am impressed with your persistance I gave up much quicker!

    I would just say that I have no issue with DGC or his opinions which like any of us here they are entitled to give and debate here

    But personally I do like to deal in facts and this is where we do tend to disagree the facts in the main support Harry being a positive in the team, but this contrary to some opinions.

    As for the results since Harry returned we can all agree that these have been disappointing, but to solely blame Harry is just unfair, our poor performances actually started when he got injured.

    As for Poch I like him too, but want him to improve, to show that he can learn from his mistakes, right now he deserves our support for where we are and he has sufficient credit in the bank to have the right to be the manager who takes us into the new stadium and on from there onto the next phase in 'the project'
