Bottom of the table - with a team of no hopers and the possibility of being out of two cups in two weeks - but still the Tottenham Money machine grinds on - the new winter catalogue is out now !
I can't believe that all that matters to this club is the screwing out of us of more cash to pamper on these so called super flops.
You guys should vote with your feet and your wallets and show the heirarchy that you aren't interested in supporting the club financially until they support the fans with performances.
It just pisses me off that that is all they care about - instead of the fans hurting. Yesterday, on the BBC 606 Spurs site a guy was selling his season ticket - how many more will do that I wonder.
If you get shoddy goods in a store you send them back and get a refund.
I just wish that was applicable for poor football teams. To those of you who go every week and who have paid your hard earned cash - I am so sorry for you all. It's bad enough watching this lot on TV out here - but to see it live must be terrible.
Iv'e watched Spurs for almost 45 years - this has to be the worst team - worse than when we were relegated. Yet the shops still want to sell us their
merchandising for exhorbitant prices. Don't buy IT!

Sorry don't agree i will support spurs through the good and bad times. Im no glory hunter and ive supported spurs through worse times, i have no shame wearing my shirt, or buying a new shirt, or paying 40 pound for a ticket. I love spurs and i won't moan or call for jaunde to be axed if fans are that pissed of go and support another team that are successful, i hear man citeh are looking for new found fans to fill there new stadium out (not you ronsey just in general).
If we get relegated i will still buy a spurs shirt and wear it with pride, if you can't handle the bad times than you shouldn't enjoy the good times imo things in life are never guaranteed and we are not all perfect ourselves? When things are going bad you know who your real friends are!
Get behind the team or put and a red shirt and slag us off with the other lot because what good are fans like that to the players and coaching staff!
I remember going to a game as a kid we were losing to united 3.0 in the rain up at old trafford, right up in the corner standing on the seats singing "glenn hoddles blue army!!!!" One of the proudest moments of my life and what pisses me off is i never got the chance to watch spurs in the cc final but there were fans there that just moan all the time and only support us during the good times and it makes me sick!
Top of the league or bottom the club still needs to be run as its a buisness.

FFS people lighten up. You support your team through thick and thin, period. All this negativity here and on all the other Spurs boards is just f ucking pathetic. Catch a grip of yourselves, alot of you are nothing but whiney little bitches. We're only 4 goddamn games in :mad: :mad: :mad:

i tihnk a lot of spurs fans are becoming just like other prem league short term glory hunters...when things are good they are full of it...when things are bad they whinge and whine.....yeah we are not great right now and yes I'm pissed off but I 'm not gonna slag the team and not wear my shirt cos we are losing....I am tottenham fan for many reasons not just because we are a prem club...or a big club or whatever....i go and support them week in week out cos thats what fans do...good times and bad....my first season following spurs was when we were in the old div 2....how many young fans today would do that...and older fans wil remember that like most london clubs in the 70s and 80s...apart from the odd cup success we didnt exactly set the world alight then either.....
of course we have the right to criticise and its up to the individual to decide what they spend money on.....but to say boycott this until they improve is ridiculous I can't see how merchandise sales will suddenly affect the players perfomances.....we expect them to be perfroming seals just cos they earn top money well they is human fellas like you and me they have a hole in their arses..and im pretty sure they don't like being bottom....confidence is a big issue too...and lets face it if we all on performance related pay a lot of us would be ****ed a lot of the time......
plenty of folk give it the spurs till i die etc etc when its going well...
well it aint going well.......and the sad thing is when ...if we do ever achieve real success...say even a league title...it wont be the fairweather fans who get the real buzz...it will be those who followed during the hard times as well as the good that really feel it.....so yeah we are on a losing streak.....and things need sorting...
but I will wear my shirt with pride and look all those other ****ers in the eye cos I am Tottenham......born and ****ing bred

Of course I am wearing the shirt too! But it's just the idea of making us pay out for the new winter catalogue that irks me, it isn't about being a fairweather fan, it is about being a loyal fan, but that loyalty should be reciprocal, the club and players should give us something to cheer! They aren't! But they still want us to buy buy buy!
A love affiar is great but it has to be two way !
That's all I am saying.

buy the kit, and wash the toilet out with it!!!
We're shit, we just dont know we are.:o
I think we have an absolute right to be completely pissed off and disheartened with yet more broken bullshit promises from this dump of a football club.
They dont buy all the players the bosses want , they bend over backwards to succumb to the big fours bullying tactics, they talk the talk, but can barely waddle yet alone walk the walk.
Levy wants top 4 but acts like a mid table nobody when it comes to crunch decisions over transfers & standing up for Tottenham.
He wont ever get top four until he has a long hard look at himself
