Max Wall Posted 22 November 2018 Share Posted 22 November 2018 Who is to say why someone hates a particular team? I utterly loathe Man Utd. Most of it is because of Ferguson (who I had to listen to for 8 years before he even moved south) but, in more recent years, it's been their glory hunting supporters littered throughout every British village, town and city. It's pretty irrational but I'm also sure no one can persuade me they're anything other than a club I want to fail miserably. I'd generally want any English team to win a European tie except them. Petty? yes, but it's just the way I feel. I don't have an issue with Spurs really, I kinda laugh when they get beaten and I'm happy to take the piss but I could say that of all the other clubs to a certain degree. Even that is slightly faux, I've probably posted that I hate them on here at some point but the reality is that I just really don't care about them enough to be that bothered. There was a period after the 2015/16 season where I took extra delight in their defeats but it wore off pretty quickly really. If someone does have an hatred of Spurs though, I'm not sure why that bothers other people so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns into half a season. Pounds or points? Can’t see it being pounds as they don’t have any ? Or levy will pay it over 25 years. Can’t see them being deducted points. If they did they should wait until the end of the season and deduct enough for them to finish below us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they did they should wait until the end of the season and deduct enough for them to finish below us I don't suppose they can do anything until the bog seat on shite Hart Lane is open. 2pts for every game or £100k a game would be a start.

Ultimately, though, nothing will happen and they'll be at Wembley for the full season with no repercussions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a soft spot for Manchester City because it is hilarious how much it annoys them. I don't hate Spurs but one of my best mates supports them (no connection at all, just liked Klinsmann in the 90's) and they are utterly hilarious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And in terms of them being bought out originally (in a non religious way but no other saying fits it as well as this) it feels like "there but for the grace of god, go i" Could have been us, and they could have been licky enough to have been bought by vichai and top (but unlikely cos they were just shit back then ? - old habits die hard) Edited 22 November 2018 by gw_leics772 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel that way more about spurs now after the title year, but i do find that the beauty of other english teams in europe is that tou can want, for example man u to beat juventus, but it takes nothing away from laughing your arse off at them if they het tonked. Win-win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Growing up in the 80s all the glory boys in Leicester supported Liverpool .The amount of grief i got on the school playground for supporting my home town club was unbelievable .Even now i would say that after City Liverpool are the second most well supported club in Leicestershire.

It was Liverpool for me in the 80's. Decades of not winning the title meant it has worn off quite a bit. I only really remember not liking them because of their success, not for any other reasons. With Man U, there's a multitude of reasons why I have a distaste for them. I don't remember Liverpool spending loads more money than everyone else as MU did to maintain their success, maybe time has clouded my judgement there though. I wouldn't be surprised if I dislike Liverpool all over again if they can win it though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im quite happy to see spurs with difficulties. I believe,one proves ones metal,by competing and where possible beating the "others". on the field of play.

When I was a young boy(secretly as I got older) and a poet to be told....I used to play with the idea of seeing the top 1-4 teams,with their Managers toiling between 17-13th,over longer periods,especially Arsenal and L'pool(and I liked L'pool) They're 2 teams that have never Really struggled!!!

The others however have seen the lower divisions. Just to clarify, by struggle, i suppose I mean not winning the league (or any trophies hopefully). An added bonus of their recent travails is that they are actually struggling most years to even get in the Champions League. That's good enough for me NTF! The way money now controls the game, it's very unlikely that any of the traditional big clubs (top 5 or 6) are going to mess it up so badly that they're relegated. Certainly not in my lifetime. It'll probably take a complete implosion within the game here (not beyond the bounds of possibility) for any of those teams to be in any danger of a bottom 3 spot. Even then, it's highly unlikely.
