Nice for Spurs to finish off a lot better than last year. 13 goals in the last few days!


Wedgie, whilst the other supporters can toss crap, always remember that what has been achieved this year has been done with a player wage budget of less than half the top 5, our spending on transfers is the second lowest in this years EPL teams over the last 5 years.

We have more England players than any other team, we are the model the football league wishes all the teams would adopt. The. Naysayers need to get with the times for English soccer to prosper, did we win a trophy - no, did we have a bloody good year - bloody oath we did.

As the UK soccer correspondents are saying, the great over achievers this year is THFC.

No doubt they have had a stellar season but at the end of the day trophies are all that matters and if Spurs don't get one in the next couple of seasons it would be classed as a massive fail. Don't forget Leicester won the league and got out of the CL group stage with smaller budget than Spurs. Money isn't everything, we have spent bucketloads and have been a massive disappointment, a loss tomorrow and I would put the season in the disastrous category

And your point is?
They don't give out trophies for nett spend last time I looked
If you've got it spend it. I'd be disappointed if we didn't spend atleast another £150m plus this offseason

Would hate to see the carry on when they eventually win something. Anyone would have thought they'd won the league, carling cup, fa cup, champions league, Europa league and the World Cup :lol:

It highlights quite a few things but yes noone can hold onto players like Bale when Real Madrid come knocking, Man U hve already shown that.

I assume you are talking about Burnley.

Spurs don't come anyway near the achievements of the Clarets. Talking about punching above your weight....meh. Not even close.
UTC... 5th most profitable club in the world from a town that could fit it's entire population into old trafford and still have room for more. And we've won the same number of trophies as Spurs this year on a budget that is a 10th at best.

No mega rich foreign owners, just a group of true Burnley men who actually care about the club, and the town, and the fans. A board of down to earth directors who won't break the bank and lead the club to financial ruin, who have a maximum salary structure that encourages unity in the team and safeguards our future.

A club whose last two managers are/have been Sean Dyche and Eddie Howe. Both of which could easily be manager of the year but won't get a sniff in as your sycophantic 'UK soccer correspondents' can't see past the big 6 for anything and will no doubt give it to Conti whose only achievement is to take one of the wealthiest clubs in the U.K., with unlimited funds, a transfer kitty of 000's of millions and a wage structure of even more is it any surprise they won the league. FFS, I could have won the league with that team.

You "big boys" have nfi. United spent more on Pogba than Burnley have spent on transfers for their entire history including our time in the premier league.

If you are going to hold up a club as a glowing example of how the league would like other clubs to emulate, the you should look at the Clarets

Not only was i surprised at winning but the way we won. Absolutely bossed Chelsea for majority of the match. Took wenger 32 matches to change the formation which seems to have made us better but i'd still like to see a manager change.

not only have we won the league at WHL we've now won another trophy on tottenhams temporary home ground :lol:
