Spurs 4 - 4 Aston Villa


Sometimes you have to be experience the depths before you see something really special!!

Faith in premiership football (partially) restored after tonight's result. You can keep your predictable top-four results if the rest of the games are like this!

Yes we were still pretty awful (especially the 'keeper) but what a comeback. We're going through the doldrums this season but experiences like tonight remind me why I decided to support this club.

Whatever happens to Spurs in the future as the game drifts away from the fans and becomes a millionaire's plaything - I have had some great years of ups and downs, laughs with friends and family, frustration and anger at throwing games away, relief holding onto one goal leads. Dreaded Monday mornings in school after drubbings, had my head held high after (occasionally) scalping the big teams. I know it's only football but it's a big part of your social life, and you make friends and build relationships through shared relationships over football teams. How to handle defeats with dignity after getting raked by your mates in school has been good discipline!

Thanks Spurs. Happy 125th Birthday - football is changing, please (please) don't you change too much.
