No, it wasn't even our worst day of the season. That was the spineless capitulation against Chelsea at Wembly. This was our worst day ever.

[Wonders if DuDe remembers 1977.]If we hadn't have got Jurgen back when we did that would have been WDE.
<wonders how many people here remember that season>
For me this has been one of the worst days of my 30+ years supporting Tottenham, but I knew it coming with West Ham winning this afternoon.
"It is better to fail aiming high than to succeed aiming low. And we of Spurs have set our sights very high, so high in fact that even failure will have in it an echo of glory."
Der bombmeister takes a swing and knocks the ball out of the park. Good to see some things on here don't change .Nah. I see West Ham as 6 points gained and although it's hard to take, Chelsea winning this should mean they keep Di Matteo, which in turn means we will finish above them next season. You have to take the positives as difficult or deluded as that may be.
Not the best day I've ever had though, that's for sure.
Quite simply it is not the worse day ever, go back 5 to 10 years ago I wouldn't have even dreamed that we would be finishing 4th with Chelsea needing to win the f**king CL to qualify for the competition next season.
On the balance of the season as a whole do I feel a little hard done by? Sure. However we are still a great club who are climbing the league slowly, doing it the right way and playing some great football. I think people need to take in some perspective at the moment and just be happy we are where we are.
Spot on. Against the worst Villa side in decades Harry settled for a point when Arsenal had given 3rd place back to us on a plate. Parker for VDV was his choice of sub whilst he had Defoe and Saha on the bench. Harry the clown has cost us and hope Levy has the balls to show him the door. The irony is that Harry thought the England job was in the bag and he wouldn't be in the position he now finds himself.WTF....this is like a bad dream, i'm going to wake up in a minute and all this will be just a nightmare.Did Chelsea really win? how? how did they not lose 15-0 how did they not lose 24-0 against Barca? they are probably the worse side to win the CL ever.....
I will tell you how they won...yes they rode their luck like no other team i ever seen, but they won it cos THEY REALLY WANTED IT , and would not lie down, even when down to 10 men in Barca and 2 down, even when they conceeded late late lastnite, even when they were down in the shoot out..
Compare that to the way we 'wanted it' at Villa when it was back in our own hands and you will realise its all about how much you really want something, yes we rallied in the 2nd half but the first half i didn't get the feeling we were really grasping our repreive..........i am afraid we didn't want it enough IMO.
