    Hating a player, regardless of what he is doing now, who once did something that hurt your club is neither rational nor cognitively consistent.

    It's just juvenile and pathetic. Did you hate Sol Campbell and refuse to celebrate our unbeaten season because he was once Spurs?
    No, you see, when Sol Campbell signed for Arsenal, he ceased being a Spurs player, voluntarily severing his links with a club I hate, and committing himself to the club I love.

    Apart from that it was a ****ing brilliant analogy

    So your hatred for a player is all consuming and based on his having a contract with a club that you dislike not on his actual actions and the impact they have on the club you support?

    And you're claiming that this is rational and cognitively consistent?

    Rational? Certainly not. But consistent, absolutely.

    If the way we both claim to feel about Spurs and its players throughout the year is to mean anything at all, I don't see how you cannot feel even slightly emotionally compromised by supporting an England team comprising so many of them.

    ...and yet you mentioned Kyle 'Des' Walker above. Remember.... he ceased being a Spurs player, voluntarily severing his links with a club you hate.

    You should like him 50% more than the other Spurs players
