Who doesn’t like watching Spurs Europa victory one more time? #COYS

Reading a piece about Conte's time with us, linked from The Athletic's latest "the fuck is going on, Tottenham?" piece and this section stood out. We're waiting for movement of some kind, smoke from a chimney perhaps, to show we're keeping the coach who answered the questions...:

Delap Of Dishonour.

'Tourists', eh?

Manager talk, takeover talk, transfer talk, worry worry worry. Is any Spurs fan still actually wallowing in the joy and smug contentment of winning an actual proper trophy or am I on my tod?

Even if "white British" will be a minority in the UK in 40 years - so what? Seriously, so what? What is so terrible about that? Make people spell out their horrors. Make them spell out the things they are supposedly not allowed to say. Make them own it.

"It's a Yes or No Question"

Poor form. Attribution is rule number one-ish that we teach to Journalism/Sports Journalism students. Don't pass off other people's work as your own. It's not right but easily put right with no damage to a writer's rep.

Ha ha.

A message from @philippeauclair.bsky.social The reality we at Josimar face is stark. Should we fail to raise 50 000 euro by 1 July, the world’s only investigative media dedicated solely to football will cease to exist. josimarfootball.com/2025/06/03/a...

Thor hammers* home a very good point. [* sorry, not sorry]

Afternoon all. In the interests of public service posting, I have now watched the Spurs 'kit launch video', and can safely say, lads and lasses, don't fret - it's not aimed at us. We're not the target market. It's for the yoof, the 'tourists' and the marketeers. Don't sweat the small stuff, pfft.

Wacthed the Europa League Final again. Actually, it wasn't as bad an actual game as I first thought. Dull, and very short on thrills and spills for the neutral, for sure, but if that's Arsenal v Inter it's an 'enthralling chess match'.

Attention young content creators ⤵️

Transfer speculation and gossip shows there's nothing like actually winning something to kcik this farce of a clown's circus into touch.

A good take to watch, IMO.

Brilliant.

Genuine questions for those Tottenham fans who want Ange out and Frank in (or AN Other). What's the expectation? What's the remit, target(s) and by when? If it's 'improve league position' that's pretty thin gruel. If it's not 'win another, bigger trophy', where's the ambition?
