What it means to be a Spurs fan ?
It means remembering 60,000 people crammed into the Lane most Saturdays during the double season. It means having your entire belief about how Tottenham should play based on Danny Blanchflower's vision of 'the glory game'. It's about the sheer pleasure of watching players like Greaves, Hoddle and Gascoigne - and others - who were just so fucking good it made you proud and happy they played for us. It's about wanting to weep with sheer frustration at years of mediocrity when we just pissed away the legacy of the sixties. It's about the mad optimism of believing each season is going to be the season, when you know in your heart that it isn't. (Except this season, when it will be). It's about hating Arsenal.
That - in short - is what it means to be a Spurs fan.
Have some rep grandad.
