    No, Spurs were once a big club in Britain 55 years ago now ravaged financially by shysters will remain so for eternity.

    Spurs have underperformed on league titles for sure. But we've consistently won other trophies over many years. No English club can match our record of having won a major trophy in each complete decade since the war for example.

    Chelsea are the only club in the UK to have won every single major trophy possible
    (League title, FA Cup, League Cup, Champions League, Cup winners Cup, Europey League) :p

    And one of only 4 clubs in Europe to have done it.
    The other three being Juventus, Bayern Munich and Ajax, having won all three UEFA trophies and their FA's equivalents of the PL, FA Cup and League cup)

    Spurs, Man United and Arsenal can all join that elite group in the future.
    United are missing a Europa League win, so they could join that elite 4 this season.
    As could Arsenal and Spurs who each both need a Champions League win to complete the set.

    Liverpool are, unfortunately, never going to be able to enter, as the one trophy they are missing, the Cup Winners' Cup, is now defunct. :p

    The team that are 2 points off relegation that begin with L.

    I know it's a bit bizarre that a team does soooo badly after winning the league, I'm hoping someone might guess with the clues I've given.

    Would that be one of the 2 teams beginning with L that have won the EPL? ... and one of only 6 clubs to have scaled the epitomy of modern footballing greatness?

    .... yes... then there are Luton, Lincoln and Liverpool <wah>... who can but dream ....:cool:

    Well if you only count the League, FA Cup, League Cup (since all top division clubs entered) and the main UEFA competitions the table looks like this (from current clubs in the PL):

    Liverpool 41
    Man U 40
    Arsenal 29
    Chelsea 20
    Spurs 17
    Everton 15
    Man C 14

    Spurs have won trophies in 8 different decades including the last six complete ones. No-one else has been that consistent.

    I've given you half a like for that. The last sentence took half away I'm afraid.
