It's so depressing being a Spurs fan...

Cry me a river, when you're done go read up on the 90's and most of the 00's... Better yet go watch Sunderland 'til I Die...

Last night doesn't really bother me as much as it should of. We have injuries to key players and llorente is crap. We did well considering. It's not depressing right now it's frustrating. Still think with a fully fit team we can still do some damage in the CL.

Comes down to two things, High Expectations and Low Patience. It's not rocket science, we have clearly been doing a fantastic job with the players we have, and we are blessed to have one of the best managers in the world at the head of our team. If we can't be patient and wait for the final push towards our goal of winning the league and trophies, then we shouldn't be supporting a club like Tottenham.

I too have been frustrated at times, however the bigger picture is still a beautiful sight so I generally like to keep that in mind. The things we complain about today will be things we laugh about tomorrow.

I think for the most part people have been patient at least to a degree but last night was a tough one to take with that being third semi-final in a row and we also lost a final.
The club are moving in the right direction albeit very slowly but this is all to levys design and I suppose last night's result won't bother him as he is preoccupied with making Tottenham a commercial success.

@Spurrific Why not bitch and moan some more instead of throwing around spam ratings for those of us who have a pair between our legs?

Hey, whoa there - what is the hostility? I rated your post spam (and later retracted), because I felt it was mean and it’s not nice that anybody would think it was anything close to accurate.

We should be careful of telling people to support other teams as it’s not up to us, but that’s just my humble opinion.

I fucking love threads like this. See post above ^

 

[Ossie'sAardvark]

How about you wipe the tears from your little soft cheeks, pal? I rated your fucking stupid post spam, because it was nonsensical bollocks and it’s embarrassing that anybody would think it was anything close to accurate.

Who are you to tell people to support another team? You’re fucking nobody. You, and the other super levelheaded heroes have no emotional reaction to losing to Chelsea in a cup semi - congratulations? You lot need to stop patting yourselves on your backs. Acting unperturbed by Spurs falling at one of the last hurdles again doesn’t make you a better Spurs fan. You, and the others that agreed with your dogshit post, are fucking ridiculous to insinuate that we should support another team because we’re pissed off at going out to a shit, shit Chelsea team.

Leicester, Swansea, Birmingham and fucking Wigan Athletic have won trophies since we last did - don’t come out with stupid banal shit like “we’re not in a position to win trophies” if you don’t want somebody with an actual brain to think it’s dense.

C'mon dude, he's just depressed. Be the bigger man. We've all been here its just about getting on. I long for the past, my sadness is age related/nostalgic I think.

 

[TwoSaintsComeMarching]

This kind of attitude is embarrassing.

Let's look at a few other Clubs who have been in and around us over the years.

Everton, Newcastle, even Aston Villa. We're miles a head of these Clubs. Yes we were ahead in the Redknapp era but we've kicked on so much these Clubs are an after thought to us now.

We are competing with the top Clubs on a regular basis.

Let other fans take the piss, it's part of what football is all about but our time is coming and I think most fans who have a modicum of intelligence recognise our remarkable progress but have a hard time actually praising us and will continue to use this stick to beat us with.

Nothing depressing about it, it's exciting thinking about the future. Yes the stadium debacle has been very frustrating but the future looks amazing in my eyes.

Some have to show a bit more patience and believe.

Come off it. Let's be honest, If you aren't upset/gutted/depressed (or whatever adjective you choose to describe the feeling) by our lack of luck, whether it be regarding the stadium issues, or our lack of luck in key moments during key matches, injuries, etc., then you're, simply put, lying. The bad news keeps coming our way. And it sucks. And it is depressing.

Being so close, yet so far is depressing. Watching our best team and best manager in decades fall short and not win anything is depressing. Our delayed stadium is depressing.

And yet, we have to be and should be so excited about what the future holds for this club. Because I too believe we are close to great things and it will come. I just hope we get more time with this team and most importantly with Poch.

To clarify - I don’t think it’s depressing to be a Spurs fan. I think it’s annoying at times but I wouldn’t ever stop supporting Spurs as much as I would threaten to do so.

I think in the future, as long as we keep Poch and Levy backs him - we can compete on all fronts. I would just like one measly league cup to tide me over until then.

However, people that say “support another team” can absolutely fuck themselves.

And where are they now?

 

[Kirito]

So depressing watching Dele & Son instead of Andy Sinton & Ruel Fox. Chris Armstrong was light years ahead of Kane, he was just misunderstood...

Bring back those glory days beating Chelsea in the final of the LC in 2008. I'd trade 3rd in a heartbeat to guarantee our place in the Europa league next season, and watch Hugo lift an elite trophy that will rival his memory of lifting the WC.

Dortmund in the Champions League? The only manager that would see us through is Gerry Francis or perhaps Christian Gross. Our current manager clearly isn't working out.

I miss finishing 14th

 

[Jaddas]

I'm actually really proud to be a Spurs fan at the moment. We have been challenging consistently for cups/titles for a few years now and it's the first time we've been at this level that I can remember (I'm 43). I actually look forward to us play whereas before I would fear it.

The reason for this is Poch and the players. They are a good set and represent the club extremely well and are a credit. It seems as though they are one big family with us fans also invited along.

My only gripe is that we are the 10th richest club in the world and can't seem to identify or purchase players which will give us greater strength in depth. I don't know if this is down to Poch being stubborn, the scouts not identifying players or Levy getting deals over the line because he thinks they are overvalued. One thing I would say is that Poch was prepared to accept Grealish & Barkley and there are loads of players better than them.

This is the thing really holding us back as a club.

 

[Spurrific]

And where are they now?

Irrelevant nonsense. They still have more recent trophies than us. I was countering the point “we are in no position to win cups or titles” with 4 clear examples to the contrary. What do you think your post is actually doing? Proving me wrong? I didn’t say anything about their current plight, I’m talking about, very specifically, winning a trophy.

 

[andy00900]

I agree we aren't elite yet.

I don't necessarily think we are 3-5 years off though. We're 2-3 quality signings off.

After the summer we'll be 5 signings off. We are at the peak now

 

[TwoSaintsComeMarching]

I don't get it...

I think its one of the most EXCITING time to be a Spurs Fan...

1. we got a new stadium, heck we might not move into it this season... but 2 seasons away is the norm for a redevelopment.
2. we are doing so well in the league for haven't spent ZERO in the summer transfer window, and the current window.
3. we are still in the champions league, heck the very fact we are now a champions league side is exciting enough
4. fine, we lost to chelsea, but we made a cup semi final losing on penalties, no shame there.
5. we have a great team, a great coach, and a young squad with bags of potential.

happy times to be a Spurs fan... try supporting west ham. or even everton.

Exciting and Depressing aren't mutually exclusive.

I'm excited about the future. I'm depressed about last night.

 

[Bobbins]

Just exhausted by nights like last night TBH.

They never end well.

Ten years since a real excuse to celebrate anything and another ten years before that the last time.

Tiresome.

This season in particular seems to be out to fuck us over in every circumstance possible.

And I’m fed up of not having a home and being left in Wembley limbo.

You can put is in bold as much as you like, it's not 'depressing'. Yes, there is a stream of negativity what with the stadium, injuries, last night's result but if you're telling me, seriously, that you are actually depressed about it then you need to go have a thunderwank and then see a specialist

And just because I don't agree that doesn't make me a liar

I got 99 problems and Spurs ain't one of them.

 

[mark87]

Oh ffs. Should we also hand out leaflets to our opponents asking them to feel sorry for us too? Christ sake.

Oh man.. I thought we could all use this thread to huddle and have a cry together. I guess i'll go cry by myself in the dark dingy corner of my basement instead.
