Since I now live in Plymouth it's much the same for them, but I'd never claim to support two clubs How do you end up supporting Chelsea if you live in Kent? Dad's side of the family is from Clapham and started going in the 30's. So every member of my family is a Chelsea fan

I think football would be better with fewer Chelsea's and Citeh's f  king it up as a meaningfull competition but lifes a b  h aint it. So - you think that, if it was not for City and Chelsea, Tottenham might stand a chance of winning something then ? Bearing in mind how long it has been since your lot last won anything 'meaningful' perhaps you can be so good as to tell us who was "f  king it all up" for you in the years between then and the likes of Abramovich coming along ? The answer, of course, is no one. The game has never been 'f  ked up' - your club has just been sadly lacking (despite the large forays into the transfer market)

Plumber will be posting blaming the North Atlantic Treaty and the lack of global warfare for Tottenham's abject failure to win anything. Damn politicians!

Yeah, we were smashing Spurs well before the Abramovich era.
I remember a little known player called George Weah I believe scoring a last minute winner at the Bridge on his debut.
God, those were the days - when we were the minnows!
Possibly worth mentioning that last season was the first time we finished below Spurs since 96-96 season.
