Are you a geographical Spurs snob?

Actually Arnie, not sure that's just an overseas thing, seen quite a few on this board (UK based), who seem to hate the chavs more than the Scum.

For me on a week, Spurs success, followed by Scum failure is what makes the day. Sure I dislike Manu/Cheat$ki/Pool, but nothing like the need to see us above the Scum.

You could be right, Raziel . I do understand the hate for the Chavs and my loathing for them is right up there but I'm like you , there is nothing sweeter than getting one over the Gooners. It's probably growing up in North London, having family and friends split into the two tribes that does it.

I am north London born and bred, and I had no choice about supporting Spurs as my dad and his dad supported Tottenham. That said, when I was a kid in the 80's, almost all of my mates were scum fans, so I would go to whl one week and the library the other week. I knew even then that I absolutely hated going to see their drab and boring brand of football..and remember feeling satisfied when they drew or lost. Once I realised how much I despised their fans, football style and everything else about them, I knew that I was TTID. Been a season ticket holder since the early 80's and have had to watch them have huge success whilst we have suffered, but I never regret following spurs, because as a club with an ethos of playing with style and behaving like gentlemen (generally) there is no club that comes close

What I dislike recently is the fans who come to the lane and boo our players, or get frustrated when we don't rush into a five goal lead. I don't care where these fans come from geographically but I would be happy for them to go back there!

My first ever attendance to a game was at the Library and it were an awful occasion. The football as you say was drab , the kit was ****e , the stadium stands were painted a creamy pink for ****s sake. Their fans were also a moaning lot even thou the game was a friendly with Eusabio's Benfica! Think I'm gonna set off on a Henry Norris and brown paper bag rant any moment now lol

Agree very much with the bolded part in your post, well said.
