This has been a real sore point for me this season and apologies if this turns into a rant but the crowd at the Lane this season have been terrible. I'm a ST holder in the Park Lane Lower and the atmosphere most of the time has been awful. There seems to be a sense of entitlement amongst some that they must see the best possible football going week in week out, compared to some of the shoddy teams we have put out over the past 10-15 years there is very little to complain about with this lot.
I go to White Hart Lane to support my team regardless, granted we all have moan here and there but many seem to go to the Lane just to moan constantly. The guy who sits behind me, and I hope he reads this is a nightmare, he ruins the experience for everyone around him by constantly shouting, moaning and screaming empty and often inaccurate analysis. I've had him by the scruff of the neck once this season after blowing my top and the constant misery.
Tonight there were two young lads sitting a couple of rows in front, possibly at their first game, and they constantly kept turning round to the guy behind them who was similarly constantly yelling abuse at his own team. I felt so sorry for these poor lads, especially if it was their first experience of the Lane, they genuinely looked scared at times.
Can we start supporting our team again? Moan by all means when things get really bad but in the mean time support everyone who pulls on the Lilywhite shirt, urge our team forward if they are behind or struggling to break down opposition. Bring back the atmosphere that makes White Hart Lane such a special place to watch football on a weekly basis.
Come on You Lilywhites!!!!
