My Thursday night started the same as most of yours I presume. Harry Kane!? Oh god, my nihilistic Spurs instinct is kicking in. What's the point in it all!? And at first, it went the way I thought it would, our high line let a ball through to easily and it was 1-0, stupid loss of possession, bad defending a set piece 2-0. Then something strange happened, Eriksen stepped up to take a free kick, and I knew it was going in, just knew it was going to fly into the corner and sure enough it did. After that, I was on the edge of my sofa, actually believing that we were going to come back and win this game, I just knew it. Ultimately yes, I realize that was not the case. But it was such a foreign feeling, believing in my team again. I had not felt it in such a long time.
It dawned on me yesterday that what Sherwood said to the media about the players can easily apply to us, the fans. Ask not what this club can do for you, but what can you do for this club. The players are not the only ones with a certain lack of character this season. I feel we are also highly accountable.
So this is my rally cry, let's not go gently into that good night and once more to the breach my friends once more to the breach. We are Tottenham, the mighty f****** Tottenham. We pioneered English football, we are a team of glory. Something to be proud of. So let's act like it, let's get behind the team, staff, chairman. Let's follow them into the gates of hell, with no holding midfielder, and it doesn't matter because we'll FACKIN' RAN AROUND A BIT!
