I couldn't find Tottenham's thread in the games room so I have named it Unofficial(maybe it exists somewhere) and since they are 100% so far, playing nice football and I am a huge fan of Luka Modric think they deserve one.
Really solid team with fantastic rotation by England's current top manager who really set 'em up fantasticlly for this seasson and I can see them continuing in this fashion and could be aiming very high this seasson and alonside ManCity could break into last seasons untouchable big four.

[keefa]

Spurs will never, ever deserve a thread of their own

[cagiva]

Why not ?
Just because you don't like them ?

[JP]

I think it was a joke

Besides which, I don't think we have a Spuds fan to maintain the thread

*Edit*

Actually, we did start a THFC thread of sorts once upon a time...link

[keefa]

Yeah, t'was a joke. If the reason for clubs not having their own threads was because I didn't like them, there wouldn't be many ***Official*** <insert club here> threads on this board

[cagiva]

Even with the reason we don't have a Spurs fan/fans is not a valid reason that we shouldn't have such as thread.
We need a place in which we can discuss certain club/team - right ?

[keefa]

So you're saying we should have thread for each club, even if none of us supports that club?

We could have 5 thousand dead threads in no time!

Take the Woking thread as an example. Fidsy is by far the main contributor there because he is a fan of them, and if he wasn't on this forum there wouldn't be such a thread. I'd say that only fans of said clubs would want to talk about their clubs. The Man City thread, for another example has completely died of late, despite the fact they're doing pretty well so far.

[JP]

Agree with keefa tbh.

If someone supports a club and is willing to maintain a thread then fine, start one. There are numerous examples including Woking, Newcastle, Reading, Barnsley, Average Villa and Wet Sham - some are more active than others.

If a club doesn't have a thread then there's always the Premier League or Football League threads.

[gathersquall]

Creating this thread should be a bannable offence, imo.

[Sesquipedalianist]

Double offence for using all-capital letters too.

But if people here are "liberal" enough to have West Brom thread (not too mention Villa as well), I'm sure there can be one made about the Lilywhites. Oh and there are Liverpool, Man Utd, Arsenal, Chelsea threads right? The don't have any fans - only glory seekers.

[althaz]

I don't see how Liverpool supporters could possibly be classed as glory hunters. Anybody who has chosen to support Liverpool in the last 20 years is the opposite in fact .

[gathersquall]

Champions League trophies seem pretty glorious to me...
Besides it was just a bit of

Easy on fellas. Never intended to start a thread that will resolve in this kind of behavior. Easy, eaaaasy. OK.
I started this thread and went away to Bosnia to visit my granny,read no internet, no TV no nothing for a week and I think I found God once again and to return home start my PC go online and in the Fox adress bar started typing fm and clicking the link that redirected me to nowhere. What the bloody hell I thought, felt like my children were taken away from me. Was mad for couple of days, I was thinking that Fm-Britain domain was sold and was checking my inbox expecting to receive a new fm-B domain name... Man I am glad everything is back in order, had no idea these forums ment so much to me.

Well back to the thread business, I think that the Spurs could become, if not already are, my favorite English club especially now Niko has joined and now T'ham has a CroTrio(you can't fight blood, especially when you are from Balcan) that could become a poker since they are seriouslly planning on bringing Mandzukic from Dinamo this winter.

GO f**kING SPURS! You have a fan southeast of Zagreb!

[Sesquipedalianist]

Easy on? Its only banter! Call yourself a football fan.

"Yids in Europe" is the travelling slogan of Tottenham Hotspur. The club is Jewish, though using the word Yid in any other context is considered quite racist. Suppose it's like the African American community using terms like "nigga".

Anyway. Spuds aren't in Europe this season. Though if they carry on the way they are they could be for next season.

I am glad you have clarified this since I had background with racism and similar on the forums.
So you are saying the board and the fans are jewish or? And is the club disliked in England and if yes why?

[JP]

Historically a Jewish club (much like Ajax iirc), though I don't know why.

Alan Sugar used to be chairman and he's Jewish.
