    Unlike some of our fans who even finishing 4th will be an affirmation of the genius of L'Ouisseau
    Of course they'll be disappointed. But they have concrete evidence of a big jump forward, so they aren't going to view that as a failure despite the fact they didn't land the title (whew). Certainly, it will have whetted their appetites. They won't be expecting to hang around for the next decade waiting for the next title charge. There's only one club in football that finds stagnation acceptable.

    My Spurs mate is very happy with how their season has panned out, they never expected a title challenge. While he's disappointed they haven't been able to chase down Leicester and he's concerned the opportunity may not arise again, he's still excited about the future, after all it's only their 2nd ever foray into the CL.

    Like them, if we had challenged for the title and seen clear and tangible improvement in the way we play, I'm sure it would be accepted as progress as well. The frustration for us doesn't come from not winning the league, it comes from not even being in a position to challenge for it when it matters. A fact made even more difficult to accept when we've had donkey's years to get our act together.

    In all honesty, from the way the clubs are being run and managed, all their fans are happy and optimistic whereas our fans are divided. I genuinely am fed up of the constant shit Wenger is pulling and is able to get away with, and we're facing another summer of transfer misery where we don't spend the resources we've built up (in the right areas) to push us further (Wenger is working the Euros for French TV, his excuse already made). Wenger is also shot as a manager.

    A while back it seemed impossible but with each game it's gotten a little more likely. Spurs are bigger bottlers than us.

    No chance! We are getting desperate for some sort of silver lining.

    They will lose tonight (or draw, can't see them winning) but we will drop points at city too so no point getting excited.

    Al they need is a draw from their remaining 3 games to guarantee m 2ND place.

    The OP should be in the mindless optimism thread. Or is that thread dead?
    Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..

    Started to get insane in there with posts like, "I think we'll play entertaining football", and, "Wenger won't play Giroud today." There's a limit to optimism, even the mindless kind.

    No it isn't.
    If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.

    LMAO!
    NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
