accepting of the strong probability that Spurs will win the FA cup
Good answer
I turned to your level over the weekend
1) They are well overdue
2) Their pattern of success has been increasing by one year each time
84 to 91 = 7
91 to 99 = 8
99 to 08 = 9
08 to 18 = 10
3) Their temporary home
4) Man U and Chelsea are not what they were
I accept the FA Cup on account of the fact that we have won three out of the last four
Otherwise I'd use that card too
Yes it was :-(
The "depressing" part of the 80's
If only Hutchison hadn't strayed from that wall
(That winning goal is overrated imo)
I can only ever recall them as being labelled a “good cup team” and of course the nonsense with the year ending in 1.
Even the era you speak of, and I am old enough to remember, I don’t seem to recall a true League challenge though let’s be honest it is a long time ago and things are cloudy.
This current lot seems to be the best group they have had in many years, though you still get the feeling something is absent. Even if City were not untouchable I still doubt they would come out on top.
A bit later admittedly but the year Allen scored 49 goals they were very very good (both Hoddle and Waddle who for all their ********ery as commentators, were wonderful footballers) - possibly the best team in the country but spread too thin across and lost everything :)
Definitely - Galvin became an awful commentator though as well, I think.
Speaking of that era, was thing of purchasing this when I am back home

There was actually quite the healthy debate on the national airwaves when Aki became eligible to play, not a personal attack but a heavy criticism from the public and ex-players of the 3 year rule.
Naturally this is all forgotten now.
What we would give for a young English footballer of above average talent to decide play for us. There was such ridiculous hype around Grealish a few years ago and now they are building up young Rice at West Ham to be the future.
Would be nice if a young English footballer of above average talent to decide play for England tbf.
Glad they are going to extend the qualification period though (and we have benefited as well, so not a partisan thing). I can qualify to play for Germany next year - just a year too late for the World Cup
