Yes, it was. There were more Arsenal fans that thought you could win yesterday, frankly. Probably the same ones that thought that you had the best midfielders in Europe.
Spurs have earned that deluded tag over decades of wild claims from fans, players and managers. It seems to be a curse that afflicts those as soon as they wear a cock on their head.
I remember there used to be a poster on old 606 called 'No more false dawns'. That has to be getting on for a decade ago
I'm sure that you think that, but it's because you're the Arsenal Cyclops, Blinkers. Arsenal Fan TV shows us who the dopiest, most deluded fans in London are without any shadow of a doubt. Social media has shown us which side has the most preening, narcissistic pillocks playing for it, too.
PNP, I get Pixie's state of mind, at the moment. He's been completely fcuked by the fact that I started a wum thread about Arsenal's chances against Barca that has already bitten, and we still have the main event to come. He is desperately trying to steer discussion away from the inevitable, and to hijack my thread, but it simply is not working. Why? Because despite the fact that he fantasised about Arsenal winning, reality (and the effectiveness of my wum) has hit home. And he knows that the worst is to come, and this thread is going to go down in the annuls of this site as being the best piss-tale on Wenger's last chance in Europe. He can't stand that. So, I don't mind him having a pop. It's the only thing he knows how to do, not having the humility to say, "You know what, HIAG? You called it absolutely right, mate. We were ****e, and we are only going to get worse." Instead, he chooses to believe that Arsenal can still win this, despite the fact that even the manager, whom he absolutely idolizes, sayiing Barca are 95% there. It's embarrassing for all of us to witness. Hence the veracity of my "masturbating monkey" jibe.
It's not like any of your fans, players and mangers have been caught out over the years saying you have a better squad than Arsenal, that you can win the league and that Arsenal are in a downwards spiral now is it ?
Except it isn't is it ? AVB was caught saying that we were in a downwards spiral right before we finished above you once again.
What delusions? And who has expressed those delusion? Every single Spurs fan I know, both on and off this site, has expresed the fear that we are going to fcuk this up. We cannot believe that we are where we are, or that this young side, under this young manager, is doing something that all of us have dreamed about for, at least, the past 40 years. Your head's gone, mate.
Well, apart from the fact that Redknapp was our manager at that time, you're doing great. Keep it up!..
And the irony is, that it is the delusion of Gooners that they cannot see this. There is a power shift going on. Slowly, but surely, it is happening. And when Wenger is finally booted out of the door, Arsenal are going to go the way of United, Chelsea and 'Pool. Except that their deluded fans believe that they are going to get in a manager that those other clubs missed, who is going to buck the trend.
Nope. He pointed out that your form was poor and ours was good during one period of the season. You'd lost to Blackburn in the FA Cup, Bayern in the Champions League and us in the league. He literally said that there wasn't a significant gap and that you'd overturned bigger ones in the same interview. http://www.not606.com/threads/wtf.324020/page-2#post-8955363 Arsenal fans are ****ing stupid though, so you all remember it being something completely different. That's delusion.

We've heard it practically every year for the last two decades that you're going to finish above us. And you've given your hard earned cash to those players to spout that bollocks too. You could say that you've paid for your delusion out of your own pockets
