The Tottenham conspiracy

What will fuck spurs more than anything is the fact that every club wants them to drop.

If they fail to beat Brighton on Saturday, I can see them being cut adrift quite quickly with some very tough games ahead.

Brighton are a very tidy outfit. I'm convinced they'll beat Spurs. I didn't think Spurs would go down but they folded like a deck of cards against Forest and you made them look feeble. West Ham, Leeds, and Forest are all showing some stomach for the fight. I reckon Spurs will be cut adrift by May.

It won’t make a huge different but the South Korean part of the deal increased by over 60%, spurs have a huge South Korean fan base and if they don’t switch to a new side that part of the deal will certainly drop.

The main issue is a game including spurs attracts more eyes than a game involving Brighton everywhere in the world apart from in Brighton. It’s why certain clubs get more games than others, it’s not like the deal will crash and be worth pennies but if overseas supporters don’t switch sides and spurs go down the 26/27 viewing figures will be lower an those will be used in negotiations.

EFL will love it though as they’ll have spurs on tv every weekend if they can get away with it.

Yet Spurs supporters club in Siuth Korea only has 28000 members, I'd hazard a guess it increased because Son was playing in the premier league and little to do with Spurs. It wouldn't matter who he had been playing for.

Given who Leeds and Forest have this weekend, they simply have to beat Brighton.

If they even draw and WHU manage to beat Palace on Monday evening, they will be 4 adrift with two horrible away games at Wolves (who will be desperate to take Spurs with them to the championship) and Villa (who will want the points to secure top 4 and of course would love to see Spurs drop).

I think you are right. They will be cut adrift
 
West Ham had a 15 point deficit or something to make up on them in Jan and are now 2 points ahead of them. Whilst Spurs have simultaneously gone 3 from 36 :lol:

Aye they might have had the odd decision not go there way but haway

Just standard football fan crack really isn't it. Presume it's always been like this but social media makes it more noticeable theses days. All the refs, pundits, commentators and media HATE my team but LOVE the opposition and our rivals.

People on here were convinced other teams tried so much harder against us in League One that they would always lose the next game and that refs were desperate to show how strong they were so they'd give decisions against us. Millwall fans moaning on twitter about how they get all the bad decisions against them because the FA and Premier League know much they'd damage their band if they got promoted ffs :lol: promise you no one gives a shite about Millwall and what league they're in.

The league one thing was real though remember a few away players saying things about can’t wait to play here etc biggest game of their career up till now etc etc. Teams without a doubt saw an away trip to the Sol as a one off even more so in that first season when we were expected to walk back to the championship. It will end up being the highlight for a lot of players when they hang up their boots. Don’t think that’s being big headed most of the players in league one will never play in the premier league, most won’t play in the championship so a game away at a stadium like ours was a one off for them.
 
Reinildo and his red mists are concerning
Falling over and then grabbing the ball before the ref has blown is abject stupidity for a supposed elite level player
No doubt he is a fine player, one of our best, but he needs to get a grip

It's rare that there's trouble in the town especially on a day like international fans day where everyone is in good spirits enjoying the city's hospitality but a couple mates left the pub before us and then messaged to say they were acting themselves outside the vault yard then we were to the Hilton post match but decided against hanging about because of the queue, stepped outside and 3 of them had surrounded one lad having a pop at him because he was singing and enjoying himself. Proper bullies mentality, barging him around and trying to get him to react. I was hoping someone would walk past and banjo the 3 horrible twats.

If it’s the three I saw (one oldish bloke and two younger lads), one of the younger lads got a clip.

As we were walking by the aquatic centre, the police had the three of them surrounded and were taking their details. The old fella looked sick of his life

Will wolves really be desperate to take Spurs down with them?? If wolves are mathematically down by then, I can see a few wolves players nlt risking any kind if injury. Also I'm not sure wolves would want Spurs in the championship next season

I think you have red and white blinkers re the push tbh. It was a clear push. I'm not sure why people are saying it isn't.

He's a unit of a player, at CF, playing to his strengths. If i was him I'd be putting myself about too. He gives the lad a nudge, that's all. The officials saw it that way too. Nothing to see here.
 
Looked like it was indecision and lack of communication between Romero and the keeper. Romero should have just cleared it.

Aye that’s why I say they may change sides but you still get South Korea flags in their stadium so some have stayed. It’s not like the viewing figures will drop to 0 but the lack of internationally known and supported clubs would affect viewing figures. More people watch spurs v Brighton than Sunderland v Brighton.

I think they will mate.

I can see Molineux being quite hostile towards spurs as well.

Possibly the fans, but if I was a wolves fan I wouldn't want spurs coming down. Also can see a wolves protecting a few players who they will want to sell if they are mathematically down
