Fixed that for you. 1961 all over again.

[Monty92]

If that happens, I for one will welcome thermonuclear war.

On the plus side, we could f*ck up their chances by avoiding defeat at the Lane.

Also, they have a few other nasty fixtures left. I'm not panicking yet.

[World's End Stella]

Yes, but my leg of lamb Sunday fell into the 'historic' category. Well done me.

Also, while we aren't really allowed to say it, I wouldn't be unhappy if Chelsea collapsed and Spurs won the league. There, I said it. It's how I feel. :shrug:

I find it really hard to hate this Spurs side and while I can't think of a single obnoxious, irritating, vile Spurs supporter in the office, Chelsea has them in droves.

[Burney]

Fixed that for you. 1961 all over again.

Yeah. Böllocks. And the following year there was the Cuban Missile Crisis. Do Spurs only win leagues at times of heightened nuclear tension?

I tend to be quite open-minded about most things, but I think wanting Spurs to win the league less than any other club is kind of integral to being an Arsenal fan in any meaningful sense.

[Burney]

Or we could be a stepping stone to their triumph - doubly so if we were to lose to them in the Cup Final.

This could literally be the worst year in human history :-(

If that happens, I for one will welcome thermonuclear war.

They won't win it purely because there is not enough matches left for Chelsea to fúck it up, I even took the most deviant of steps and looked at their remaining fixtures such was my concern at how very ordinary they appeared on Sunday.

It is an ever evolving thing though, Burney. While I used to hate Spurs more than any team in the world the whole Abramovich/Lampard/Terry/Mourinho era has raised Chelsea to the same level of hatred as Spurs for me. Literally Jamie, I don't know a single really offensive Spurs supporter.

But that's the thing: ALL Tottenham supporters are offensive by dint of their allegiance - even the nice ones. Besides, if they seem acceptable now, it's only because we've had the whip hand over them for such a long time. With the boot on the other foot, you'll soon find out how offensive they are.

A definite improvement over the initial nightmare first hour, yes, since when progress has slowed.

I was lying on the floor unable to move my limbs, retching hard, when I remembered finding my mother exactly like that after the haemorrhage that killed her, so it was a bit troubling. I didn't want to scare v by asking for an ambulance, which was a good job really, I'd have looked a proper ****.

I don’t think one should not take any chances with health as one ages, and let’s be honest you are on the home straight in that respect.. Doctors and health professionals exist for this very reason.

I know of people, family members, who have gone to see their doctor on the basis of something not feeling right and ended up being told they had had a minor heart attack or in another case stroke.

Unless of course you are exaggerating your illness and in fact what you had was akin to a bad hangover.

In which case, despite your recent denial, you would be veering into the queer district.

It is about more than the people we know, and I agree that many Chelsea fans are worse than Spurs fans (and there are reasons for that) it is about a kind of geo-political control of the hinterlands.

I walked past The Lane yesterday, with their grand construction site now resembling a new stadium, at a moment when their club could be riding the crest of a wave to some geniune success, possibly even standing on the edge of a seriously glorious era, while our club spirals downwards into goodness-knows what, and it was a sobering moment.

On the boards around the site were photos and momentoes of Glory Glory Tottenham Hotspur. "Harry Kane scores a goal in Europe!" "Spurs win a football match!", "Harry Kane top scorer in the League!" "Here is us winning the league in black and white!". Proper DVD-release of a league cup tie win stuff.

For all the 'mind the gaps' and 'power-shift in North London' that we've come to laugh at over recent years they are finally actually going to finish ahead of us, and could even actually win the fùcking double, and possibly by beating us twice in the process. If the dominance that we take for granted, which makes Arsenal the default team in large parts of North London, is over, then we might start seeing kids in Tottenham shirts deep in Arsenal country, which is almost unheard of now for many-a-year.

And for those that live more in Spurs territory, like poor old Berni there, I shudder to think what the implications could be.

Ivan will notice a dip in one of his revenue-streams too when the tills in the Spurs club shops start to ring more regularly than in his own.

Spurs are the best side right now. Probably not while Chelsea went on what looked like their long, title-winning run.

There were plenty of existential moments when Arsenal were the best side in seasons that they did not win the title.

This is very true but there was a large portion of last season, up until they imploded with 3-4 to go, that I also then believed they were the best side in the league.

A keeper the equal of any other, the best defence in the league, a very effective and functional midfield and a forward line with a striker as good as any in the league. Then they went and improved on this in the summer with the excellent signing of Wanyama.

While Kante has been getting rave reviews from every angle this season I have not seen a better midfield footballer in the PL than Dembele.

Even when they lose a player like Kane and most predict imminent doom they just carry on.

While the points difference in only 10 or whatever we appear on a whole different level (at this moment).

While the next few weeks could be painfully (though they won't win the league), I don't think there future is as rosy as you are making out. By all accounts the cost of their stadium has doubled and it took some serious wheeler-dealing (sorry Twitchy) to raise the funds. TV money makes a huge difference but Lewis has never been one to dip his hands in his own pocket to help them out hugely. Dele Alli signed two new contracts last year and is still "only" on 50 grand a year. Jesse Lingard has just signed one at United for 100,000. No way are they keeping Kane, Alli etc on the wages they pay at the moment - or possibly Pochettino, which would be the biggest blow, as he appears to know what he is doing when signing players unlike most of the other clowns who have had the job (and while Levi has done well here his record for hiring decent managers is hardly inspiring for them)

**** off, ref. You can't send me off for a mere tautology. I was using the word in its meaning of 'in the moment' to distinguish a team in good nick from one which performs well enough in 38 games to win the league.

And it's a proper word. You used leverage as a verb, which a Yanqui, corporate buzzword-bingo crime.

Doesn't Joe have to act as guarantor for the loan though? And you have to hand it to Daniel, he drives a good deal for them when buying or selling. There's a pub on the High Road with his picture and a caption: "More ales than he's had managers".

Saw Donald Sumpter shuffling around by South End Green on sunday. Poor old fella didn't look in the greatest condition. Looked just like his Maester Luwin.

The stadium shouldn't have any impact on their ability to pay wages as I would expect that the increased TV revenue would allow them to easily cover the additional wages required to keep Ali, Kane et al. It will impact their ability to compete in the transfer market until the stadium is built as any cash reserves will probably be used to fund the stadium to keep the loan to a minimum. However they seem to have a very good group of very young players there so their need to go into the transfer market may be small. Once the stadium is built, they should have additional money provided the increased revenues associated with the stadium exceed the annual interest payments on the loan (as they did at Arsenal to the tune of £30mil per year) which they are likely to in this time of low rates.

All of which sounds great, until as you point out, Pochettino leaves. It is that which they will fear, I think. Not the impact of the stadium.

To compete with the wages on offer at the Manchester clubs and Chelsea, never mind Barca, Real and Bayern who would be sniffing around the likes of Alli, Dembele, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Eriksen, would require not only a massive investment (again I shall use the example of Alli currently being on 50 grand and Lindgard on 100,000 - do you not find that staggering) but a considerable change in their policy. Not too much of a stretch to suggest to do this at a time when they are financing a stadium and have actually said there would be some constraints on their spending

They will be getting 80mil+ from Sky going forward annually, no idea how much they were getting with the old deal but it sounds like they will be able to increase wages significantly just because of the television money. You think the big clubs in Europe will be sniffing around many of their players? I would guess Ali and Kane only.

But my main point was that the impact of the stadium will have less impact on them and their ability to compete than losing the manager will. As Wenger was to Arsenal in 97, so Pochettino is to Spurs now.

Yes - the latter is a fair point. As for clubs sniffing around their players I would be hugely surprised if there wasn't considerable interesting in the Alderweireld, given the paucity of centre halfs around (40 million and upwards suggested for Van Dijk!). Real could certainly do with a centre back. Similarly, Eriksen would attract much attention

You are cheering me up slightly with all of this. The key is getting the manager out. That should be enough to stop all this nonsense and he must be in the queue for some top jobs now.
