    Staff at my client in 1994 had a fantasy league, and in a similar vein a couple of us tried to
    construct a starting XI of :

    1. serial thugs
    2. right ugly mugs

    and just like you we could not easily get there on either. :)

    ... I also knew a guy that tried to compile an all Irish side ... struggling for forward options at the time so he included Dion Dublin <laugh> ... fair play ... although the team did pretty poorly tbh ...

    Only a plastic would accept zero effort for over paid prima donnas. You seem comfortable with it, almost bragging, a real fan wouldn't have none of that.


    Feel sorry for Leicester when they become your adopted club next year.

    I think he's become a Spurs fan Spurlock.

    The way he flits between clubs is embarrassing. People like him represent the worst of modern football.

    We beat them twice, so we weren't 'trounced' at all as you claimed.

    The amount of jizz coming from the Spuds about the potential of them finishing above Arsenal for the first time in two decades, tells you everything you need to know about their small club mentality :)

    Well, they're top of the league, and you're 13 points behind this 'small club'. What would you call it?

    You said that we'd been 'trounced' by Leicester. We weren't we beat them home and away. It was results against other clubs that have cost us.

    Good job Spurs, you have shown hunger, desire, good football etc, you are most likely going to finish above us, and will have fully deserved it.

    Piskie you should save your bitterness for Wenger and the players, if you want to have a go at someone, it's them, not Spurs fans.

    Cheers. And you're probably right. Wenger, as good as he's been for you, seems incapable of accepting that the game has moved on.

    This thread should be closed, as Spurs are now without doubt, the top dogs, not only in North London, but the whole of London and if they keep everyone, they'll only get better under Potch.

    Obviously, we all hope so. After the turmoil of the last few years it's nice to see us moving in the right direction at last.

    We have a young side - youngest in the Prem - that is still growing together. If we can't quite get there this year, we will hopefully add judiciously in summer, and we'll be up there challenging next year for sure.
