<p>This Spurs fan is loving this. My expectations are being massively exceeded, I feel like we're playing with house money. Why can't we win the first title since 1961? It's madness :)</p>

<p>It should be a great game, as long as the ref keeps it clean...</p> -

<p>Wasn't Spurs last league title back in 1961/62 when they did the double?</p> -

<p>Surely they must have been top of the league post christmas without winning the league in 54 years?</p>

<p>It's my Spurs we're talking about Hooroo, we have been a study of mediocrity in the league for the greater part of that 55 years!! I think there was one year back in the 80s when we were 2nd or 3rd only to lose out. Apart from a couple of good years with Redknapp we have been varying degrees of poo</p> -
I lived in London for most of the 80's and Spurs were good value for the whole decade. Certainly the top London side (if you discount Fulham) until Arsenal's resurgence at the end of that period.<br><br>Won FA Cup twice in a row (Ossies going to Wembley his knees have gone all trembly, C'mon you Spurs, C'mon you Spurs)I Think in the first of those two campaigns they were top of Div 1 at Easter.<br><br>Pretty sure they were top at Xmas the season Everton won it too. All in all I reckon they would have had 5-6 top 4 finshes in that time - plus winning the Cup Winners Cup.<br><br>Been lean times since though

<p>They had some great players back then, Clemence in goal, Ardilles, Crooks and Archibald, Hoddle of course, Lineker, Gazza, Clive Allen, Ginola. They won the cup in 1991(?) when Gaz broke his leg. Since I started supporting them in the early 80s they have been in the shadow of some great teams, the top Liverpool sides, ManU of course, and lately Chelski and Citeh. Hopefully this is our time with a team of young players too, this could be our class of '92 ;)</p> -
<p>Liverpool won? jesus. That's a couple of beatings we have given City this year. And yet in the only trophy final we'll see, we lose. Hopeless.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Fucking Man U, despite being awful for most of the year, aren't out of this yet. </p>

<p>Arsenal are a joke. That may sound funny from a Liverpool supporter, but seriously, they have the same season on repeat. Same squad. At some point they will be title favourites before almost immediately going on a losing run where they show all the backbone of a jellyfish, they get knocked out of the Champs league, and key guys get injured. 4th it is again then? Wenger's done amazing things at Arsenal, but at what point to you move on? A club of that standing, with that sort of money should be showing a bit more ambition. </p>
