thats what everybody says, except those who win it


its a goal-a-thon atm, 4-1

Mate you'd be hard-pressed to find any fan of a major club that sheds a tear when their side is knocked out of the Carling Cup.

I'm not even trying to take anything away from Tottenham, just saying that nobody cares!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HOW IT ALL STARTED

The history of Tottenham Hotspur began under a street lamp just across the road from what is now the Spurs Store on High Street Tottenham, London N17. Some players from the local cricket club and the local grammar school - St. John's Presbyterian - were at a loss as to what to get up to during the summer and so they decided to start playing football. This was back in 1882. Unsure about what to call themselves, they named themselves after the youngest son of the Duke of Northumberland, Percy, who went by the nickname of "Harry Hotspur". It was the valiant nature of his derring-do heroics, that they thought it was an appropriate title to adopt, so Hotspur FC was born. Under the chairmanship of John Ripsher, the club was reorganised in 1883, took to wearing all navy blue and played their games at Tottenham Marshes.

The following year saw the club renamed "Tottenham Hotspur Football and Athletic club"

Gomes has been playing with injured ribs, plenty of others would have cried off. When he is fully fit and used to the game in England he will be fine.
