Recently spoke to a Spurs fan who said they genuinely preferred finishing in the top 4 over winning trophies.

Because he's watched even West Ham win a trophy recently. People will convince themselves of anything to stay sane.

 

No need to convince themselves, it's surely true.  Recent reports have confirmed that the Glazers preferred making the CL knockouts to actually winning it, because bonuses paid would have exceeded the extra prize money.

 

If Levy and Lewis were any different, they'd have taken an occasional trading loss in a transfer window when their chances of a trophy were high.  They preferred to pinch pennies on everything except the Toilet Bowl.

Would you swap our 20-21/21-22/22-23 seasons for Crystal Palace's? 

It's more the consequences of not going up, the possibility of becoming another Derby. If you could guarantee we'd go up the following season then yes I'd take the fa cup but this season is our chance to bounce back with limited damage to our standing in the game, we become a minnow again if we don't get back to the PL soon

Only 5 clubs from 2000 have won Premier league, fa cup and league cup.

Leicester 

Man city

Man utd

Liverpool 

Chelsea 

 

All 5 still left in fa cup.

 

Also what happens if we get to final om may 25th, and blow the league and finish in playoffs, as playoff final is a day later may 26th, what will happen if we are involved in both?

Only 2 have been relegated in that period and only one been down to the 3rd tier

Presumably the list is 1 club that have, in the last 20 years, won:

 

Premier League

FA Cup

League Cup

Championship

Community Shield

This is where fans differ from owners

You forgot Spurs 

Trophy maker/engraver: Spurs? Who are they?

 

Audi: Errr, guys...?

[Leicesterpool]

Tottenham may have to invent their own cup.... Spurs cup.... features two teams

 

Tottenham Hotspur and Tottenham Hotspur Under 21's. 

 

They'd still come third!
