At least when I was married to a woman from Wisconsin we spread a little Spurs love in that state. It was clearly an influence on her as her second marriage was also to a Spurs fan.
My exes married people who are now dead, well before their time, to my mind. One burned to death in a house fire. That one was always fiery. She lives about half a mile from my current address. I've never let her know my exact address. I don't think she did....but
When my son was about four years old he told me he wanted to support Woolwich ( Okay he used their other name that I find hard to type). I told him where the front door was and that he wouldn't be welcome in my house. he burst into tears and apologised. He is now a yid through and through. going to youth games, and more away games than I do and as he is at Uni in Manc went to see Spurs Ladies play Blackburn in the cup. Sorry but I cannot understand how anyone can let their child stray.
On another note, reports in Italy claim Chelski have signed Neymar for 180 million Euro. that is a lot of shirt sales.
you are right but it is sad that they don't take into consideration the supporters who like to watch a successful team, because all they think about is the money.
You mean like a team that has won 2 cups in 2 seasons and is still in with a chance of a 3rd (or were you thinking about Spurs?)
I can remember Chelsea before some oilwells walked in their front door.....and fans still watched them.
The only players on that list who are actually top 4 quality are Sanchez, Ozil and Cazorla. The latter is permanently crocked, which leaves 2 players out of 12. This graphic, for me, illustrates 2 things: A) Just how much bilge is clogging up their squad B) Their pathological failure to cash in on over-rated underachievers like Oxlade, Wheelchair and Ramsey. Could've made a fortune on all 3 a year or two ago. With 12 months left on their contracts, they won't make much of a profit at all. Blind stupidity.
Oxo-Cube's actually done well for them this season when he's been used centrally. Wenger inevitably moves him out wide to play someone else after a few games though, then they both play ****.
I actually like Oxo-Cube too. I think he provides drive and guile for a team through the middle. Whether he is good enough to do that for a team with Arsenal's ambitions in the league and CL I'm not sure, as I think there are plenty of AMs better and more proven than him as a 10, and if you deploy him as the more attacking component in a 4-3-3 then my opinion is that you have to structure the rest of the team around him - again, is he worth that commitment right now?
I am hoping the shirt he had to wear was an original (not replica) late 70s Spurs Admiral kit (they were as itchy as hell) .
I'm old RDBD. Refresh my memory of that game. I've tried to forget Moores and the worst signing of the lot....David Jenkins in exchange for Jimmy Robertson. I heard Robertson was a wife chaser,but don't know if this was true....?
