yeah, its our fault they lost to Blackpool, Wigan and alot of other below average relegation candidates. we bought their players too, I suppose?
hate the spud cunts almost as much as the rags and dippers, to be fair. and I can actually understand the hate coming from Everton and obviously United ("stealing" their players & being scared, respectively). but from the spuds? no idea how this idea of us somehow thwarting their "rise" got in their heads.

Nothing wrong with that article at all. City's rise under Sheikh Mansour clearly makes it much harder for Spurs to achieve their previous targets. That's all he said and I agree with him.IanBishopsHaircut said:Tottenham Hotspur..you couldn't make it up
Oh..they just did..

Wonder where Buzz Aldrin would have been if he was the first to get out the space shuttle and not Neil Armstrong.
Where would the rags be if a certain incident didn't occur or if they weren't bailed out financially as they have been on a number of occasions previously ?
Where would Arsenal be without the Hill-Wood family ?
Where would the scousers be without the Moores family ?
I'm sure if I could be arsed to look that Spurs will have benefitted in some way above other clubs financially or otherwise because of people connected to their club ?
Funny thing is, if people bothered to research these things they'd realise we were up there with all these other clubs in the past, we were just in the wrong place at the wrong time when the real money was starting to get dished out.
For the decades of bad luck this club has had it just seems like all our luck was saved up and given to us all at once, so I for one ain't complaining.

The root of all evil separating the Sky 4 from the nearly clubs is Mr Murdoch.
The money that these 4 clubs receive from the Premier League and UEFA basically means that Spurs, Villa, Everton & Newcastle cannot compete on the same level financially and cannot therefore attract players with huge transfer and wage demands. City could have only hoped to have reached this second tier even with Thaskin's money and those 'second tier' clubs would never bridge the gap to the Sky 4 who would have stayed there largely due to the 4 places that we are allowed in the Champions League.
Spurs bridged the gap on the field due to a demise in Liverpool's performance, however, they still weren't in the same market for players that Liverpool could demand.
City having the money has done one huge thing. We are now expected to finish in one of the Champions League places from now to eternity and this leaves 3 places for 4 teams. Liverpool have renewed belief with Dalglish back at the helm and have appeared to have rescued their footballing, but as yet not financial slide. In the next 4 years I am expecting City and Chelsea to be there or thereabouts. The rag brand and advertising that they can generate will enable them to compete but only if Slur remains manager. This leaves Liverpool and Arsenal (who won't do anything as long as Wenger insists in having a team where none of the players have been round the block) with Spurs desperately trying to hold onto their coat tails.
City are the exception and have blown the teams governed by Sky money apart. Blackburn managed to get to the top for a short while, but the amount of money and calibre of player needed to achieve this then, compared with now pales into insignificance. The biggest question remaining for Liverpool, Arsenal and Spurs is can they continue to chase the dream or will they suffer financial meltdown and 'do a Leeds'

What utter bitter rot! We play them just twice in the league each season. That's the only time we directly affect their points in the league. All the other 36 games we have zero effect on. If they win the other 36 games they will finish 2nd at the very least (if we bizarrely win all 38 say) but in all probability will be top. Typical bitter whinging from the league's second most hated supporters.
