    I have to agree with Enis for once. Spurs are not hated; you need to be successful to be hated. Or feared, as Chelsea and City now are

    For gods sake Ensil, why do you have to be so pedantic all the time?

    Grammar, punctuation, context...you're worse than a primary school teacher and twice as aloof, chastising people for wummery yet engaging in it yourself.

    Get a grip.

    Right lads...this is getting boring.

    Hammersmith Blue hasn't exactly showered himslef in glory recently with recent comments, but each thread is judged on it's own merits and the OP wasn't really so bad, but was greeted with aggression straight off the bat.

    Ensil...You waded straight in with the insults before anything else AND swerved it straight off topic, I also noticed you swore, something you have chastised others about...Why don't you practice what you preach?

    Ghoddle10...you can't say that the figure quoted for sales was the official one off your site and then say that he's telling lies can you? You also claim that the thread be closed before the usual abuse starts when you are getting involved with giving it out FFS.

    If you don't like it, and many of you won't, then use the ignore facility on the relevant poster and it won't be a problem<ok>

    SW6 - HB is wumming, you and I both know that

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/europe/15014632.stm

    This gives the attendance as 33,500, not bad for these 'recessionary times'.

    Someone with the detailed knowledge of Spurs ticketing arangements that HB has, he knows more about this subject than me for example when it comes to our away allocations and sales figures, must have known the 24,000 figure didn't tell the full picture.

    Incidentally I didn't say HB was telling lies, I simply called his bluff, not difficult with a Wum like him

    this is what i said

    'I accept that the 'official attendance' on our site is 24,730. But in actuality that must either be a mistake or some strange counting that Spurs have embarked on. Because all STs had that game as part of their free games, that makes about 26,000 to start with. Plus there were clearly at least 3,000 Rovers fans there, in actual fact lots were in the 'neutral/home' sections. Plus some Spurs members/occasional supporters definitely bought tickets, I personally know two myself.

    It may well be that many Spurs STs didn't take up their seat, but it was sold regardless. Looking at the TV pictures, I would think the actual attendance was 30,000+, and including 'absentees' who had bought their ticket, I think 34,000 is about the right figure.

    I realise this spoils the cheap dig you came on to make, but there it is, 'owned' as I believed the youth say

    Incidentally, there was a great atmosphere that night, far better I'm sure than in your graveyard for day trippers and camera enthusiasts.'

    Where do I call him a liar?

    Re the abuse, I was predicting the inevitable and correctly so, as it turned out. I didn't need to be Nostradamus did I? When a well known wum comes on an oppo board with cheap digs, the result is pretty much foregone, isn't it? He's the 'Pensioner that's cried wolf' far too often to have any credibility on the Spurs board.

    Oh and in the spirit of Ensil, I like Airplane, the Sound of Music and that 'Glory Glory' film they made about Spurs.

    I also like cream cakes, cream soda but not double cream <ok>

    1: Wrong, but in the same spirit most of what you post is regarded as utter tosh but I approach each bit as though it might not be and don't bother to respond to what is.

    I haven't defended Hammersmith Blue as an individual, but his original post.

    2: Wrong again...Fulhams Junior club was your insult as was the link, which was also not relevant and therefore off topic.

    3: Not relevant to my point, but as you asked it was the only panoramic shot of our stadium I could get my hands on via goolge images that was the right size.

    4: Ah ha, so it's ok for you to emphasise your point, but not me as a "moderator" as we are upheld as having to be supposedly fine moral citizens by the likes of you.

    You are a **** stirrer Ensil, you portray everyone else as being the villain, the bad man, the scumbag lowlife, yet actually you are equally as bad with your antagonistic ways.

    Have you ever thought that if that person called you a ****, it could be because you are one?

    If you're so much the big man, ignore it and rise above it, or is it just the fact that you are as bad and can't resist...use the ignore function maybe??

    I don't get offended by what you post, you just talk bollocks and bore the living piss out of me with your repetitive diatribe.

    I have to agree, but just don't rise to it, it's an internet forum not life or death...put him on your ignore list, I have done it in the past with LuisNani17 when I first joined and it worked a bloody treat.

    I don't care for the semantics of who makes the most noise, who sells the most tickets etc...I love my club, you love yours...simples<ok>

    You guys use the BBC source and claim this to be correct over the official attendance on the THFC official site , but only when it suits you.

    But last season when you played Stoke, and the BBC quoted just 32702 for a Prem game; you said the BBC was wrong and the THFC official website attendance was right.

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/9448905.stm

    So who is right. The Beeb or THFC?

    It's because who you are that Hammersmith and the countless others ridicule you so much. Although it's not much of an achievement as you bite more often than a great white shark on Benzedrine.

    <doh>.

    If this is true and you intention isn't to insult anyone, then why don't you just call us Chelsea. It's a lot shorter to type out.

    I may have to start naming you lot Hostpur FC's junior club. <whistle>

    Everyone on the forum bar the Spurs board thinks your a ****, not just me <ok>.
