Great stuff, Tom. I was only one of millions in puzzlement for hours last week when you failed to identify who issued the quote and their subject matter. Are you trying to branch out from the graphs? At least you tightened up your act this week, only to be upstaged by canadaspur within minutes. Doh! How about making this a weekly thread so we've all got something to remember to ignore? ;)

Faubert's now out for 6 months with a ruptured achilles tendon. Domenech criticised him for signing for a club not in its national top 4 so he could well have said the same thing had he signed for us. Faubert was told if he wanted to leave it was WHAM or no one, presumbably because no on else bid at their level.

I'm going for Mourinho saying, 'There are 5 title challengers; anyone of Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manu and Tottenham can win the title.' :D

He goes on to say, 'Tottenham have kept their best players and have made additions, so I think they can fight for the title also.' :D

A bit premature I believe, but when a guy with Mourinho's credentials speaks of you this way, and you were a fan through the 90's, it can only be good. ;)

I don't care if he is using us as a mind game tool or if he really means it. I think he actually means it, but even to be used as a mind game tool like this is a sign of the huge strides we are making! :cool:

Surprisingly, Mourinho has generally always been pretty complimentary about us. Although he's a cock, it's nice to see.

I think it's because he genuinely likes our ethos and how we are building a team. That is how he would do it, of course aside from our style of play and dignity which is the antithesis to Mourinho.

Almost anything that comes out of his mouth makes him sound like a cock - too much previous.

But I do think in our case he geniunely respects us, at least in his world.

He has very cordial relations with Jol, but as Benitez said, that usually changes when a manager starts regularly getting results against his side.

I think we've started that already.

But maybe when we are a major rival he will behave differently.

I remember before the Chelsea FA Cup game where we went 3 1 up, He said that 'Spurs fans are much noisy than our fans' meaning it in a good way, I think he must like Tottenham...

I think Mourinho genuinely has a respect for Jol and us. There haven't been may sides that have taken advantage/caused him to radically change tactics like we did in that FA Cup match. Like others pointed out he must look at how we operate and have built a squad and admire our ethos.

I also think the 5 teams comment was also a little bit of mind games against Wenger, pointing out that The Scum's position in the CL places wont be so sure.

Gino Ginelli
22nd July 2007, 12:48 PM
Do you think it's because there were rumours of him managing us before Chelsea got their claws in?

Say, You might even see your bent gooner friend Ricky H who signed on hoping that everybody on there is gay aswell as paranoid, obsess c*nts... You should all talk about on how your gonna beat the spammers next season you pathetic bunch of c*nts... I'm sure you'll find yourself someone to be obsess about with there wrting style... You know in your heart of hearts thats where you belong you bent f*cking tw*t!!!

I'm guessing it's because he behaves like someone with special needs, starts a plethora of pointless threads, uses random punctuation and the reasoning of a bull elephant on heat. Singlehandly he's helping the IQ of the forum to plummet towards single figures.

You can just ignore his posts if you don't like them. He doesn't flame people.

I gave out to him for that, more than anyone. That was stupid immature shit, but he is only a young lad.

I mean in how he has behaved towards other people, especially when getting downright abuse from adults who are 'supposed' to be more mature.

If you want to be treated like an adult, try to behave like one. I don't find it difficult to ignore honest mistakes, but utterly moronic behaviour is a different issue.

I'm not saying he is an adult. That's the point.

jrio
24th July 2007, 03:41 PM
But he's on a forum heavily populated by adults, a large number of whom won't be seeing 30 again, so he must expect to be judged as an adult or at least aspire to that.

RuFuS
24th July 2007, 04:18 PM
If he is a kid and not a moron i'm all up for giving him a little slack. I've already put him on ignore once which got me whole load of abuse. When i took him off and tried to tolerate his pointless polls/threads i had to put him on my RickyH list and got another load of abuse.

If he's a kid with this kind of mentality he's in for a big shock when he go's to the pub populated by people who go there because they all into the same thing and tries to fit in by speaking inane drivel which when he gets ignored or put in his place gets all abusive and punchy.

I know i was that kid once :o

When I first found this site, I only came on here because everyone seemed to know what was going on with Spurs and kept everybody else updated with there knowledge on Tottenham news...

But now I'm deliberatley getting targeted by my wrting style which is a stupid reason to argue about, and no RuFuS, I wasn't abusing you or what ever you wanna call it, I'm trying to get my point across like you were on my writing style, But now I just can't be bothered to argue with you anymore, theres no point... It's like talking to an empty room... thanks for the back-up choda... But I'm gonna sign out of THFC talk... If I need to see the latest news on Tottenham, Theres always the Spurs website, sky news, bbc... But I thought on here people knew what they were talking about when it come to Spurs...

This will proberbly be my last post that you will see, and I just need someone to tell me how you sign out of here... then I'll leave
