It was different then, we didn't have the money and high expectations. As fans we were more relaxed and enjoyed the attacking football. Like someone said earlier it seems that this season some fans are cracking under the pressure. We've been to be busy taking in all this media hype about us going places and giving it large to all our rivals and now that its not going according to plan the fans have become disillusioned hence the empty seats and poor atmosphere. Personal wealth has only a small part to play. Do Everton fans earn more than us ? no of course not. If we can all just settle down, keep a sense of gratitude and humility and realise that we have a long way to go to challenge top 4 the good times will come I'm sure.
 
we can all pick out specific games when we've taken loads away , and it would be nice to think that all Spurs fans are ugly fuckers who can't get girlfriends and so can take thousands up to Bolton for a televised match on Valentines day - but we just can't generate the kinds of numbers like they do - maybe with our owners vast wealth they can do things to help increase the numbers we have for cup games - cheap home tickets, free travel away - surely its all about getting that first bit of silverwear, and braking this 34 year hoodoo.

apart from the rags, liverpool and blackburn, every away game this season hasn't sold out. Spurs and Everton sell out every away game weeks in advance.

Wrong. We've sold out as many times as Spurs and Everton this season away.

Spurs didn't sell out a reduced allocation at Leeds the other week, whereas we'd have filled the whole end.

Numbers wise we're about the same away from home but Spurs have probably got the most support, as they have several thousand who can't get into WHL and are increasing capacity to 56,000.

You do realise that our FA Cup tie v Leeds United was a midweek game live on terrestrial television, and it was more importantly a "restricted ticket game", only Spurs members and season ticket holders could apply for tickets for that game, it was not allowed to go to general sale which makes a massive difference to how many tickets are going to be sold in total, and we still sold 3,200 tickets for that game despite those restrictions.

You also rather stupidly gave it large that City would "fill the whole end" at Leeds well done on that theory, you obviously didn't take into account the little fact that most of Tottenham's fans had a 400+ mile round trip to contend with where as you could virtually piss from from Manchester to Leeds in comparison.

So, do you think Spurs will sell out the games where it say 'general sale' .. How many does WHL hold, 36k. Yeah top class support at WHL, very hard to get tickets, blah blah blah.

That is an honest post mate, with all due respect I think that a lack of money is a big problem for some of Manchester City fans at the present time in regards to not being able to go to some games and it is the same with most teams in the north to be honest about it, I can remember you all moaning about our £47 ticket prices for the game at WHL and rightly so, as our owners really do take the piss with their pricing policy.

in answer to an earlier thread Spurs actually had 4,800 at Bolton today and not the 3,000 stated on ITV.
