Woke up this morning actually not giving a f*ck that Totnumb won that trophy last night.
They,their fans and their ever loving media can have their little moment. However anyone who knows football will know how devalued this competition now is.
I'm sure the footballing powerhouses in Europe are not waking up today saying " we had an easy ride for a few years, but now Spurs have turned the corner our fun is over"
No one outside The Hank Marvin Stadium should take this too seriously.



Aint that the truth - how any Gooner can get bent out of shape over the scum winning a shit trophy whilst having the domestic season they had is beyond me. At this moment in time I am having having a great laff at the scum and manure fans - I'm taking the piss out of manure fans cos they are beyond shit and are stoney broke and have to sell players to stay afloat, and am taking the piss out of scum fans who think they can wind me up by pointing out where they are in the league and the fact that they won one of the worst european finals in history with 1 shot on target, 27% possession, and only something like 180 completed passes only goes to highlight how shit the whole thing was, so I am not losing one seconds sleep over them winning regardless of how much they or the media try to hype it into more than it is :oops: :oops:

Napoli 2-0 up v Cagliari and about to win the Serie A title. Goals from two ex Manchester United players, including a brilliant strike by McTominay...

I’m almost a bit embarrassed saying this, but I couldn’t stand McTominey, always thought he was a donkey who put in recklessly dangerous challenges and then in that final season at Utd when they pushed him further forward, he seemed like a player and scored goals too.

Not sure why they got rid of him, given the absolute crap in that squad. Haven’t seen anything of him at Napoli, but assume he’s performing well?

I hated the cùnt. :censored: A real nasty little coward on the pitch and a fucking donkey to boot. The Italian league must be utter shit if this snide prick is doing well over there! :lol:

He was an arrogant prick at United, I couldn't stand him, thought he was an overrated player at a club in decline. But whatever it is he has been transformed in Italy. I don't watch enough Italian football to comment on the standard, however Napoli have beaten Inter Milan to the title and Inter Milan are in the Champions League Final.

McTominay and Fat Kaku with the goals to win it for Napoli - that’s peak banter.

As I said, never rated him at Utd and thought he was a danger with his wild challenges, but he looked entirely different in that last season when played further forward. I clearly remember thinking that I couldn’t believe he could improve to that extent. Looks as though he’s doing it at Napoli.

Thought it was just me. It really hasn’t been given the press coverage I thought it would. It’s complete tin pot and every fan other than Spurs fans knows that. A complete shell tournament with Spurs avoiding anybody half decent and then playing the worst United side in living history in the Final. Won by a fluke own goal and then a low block. Literally peak banter. :barscarf:

Anyone seen Rodders today?

Thinking of him tugging himself bandy over the Play Off Final. Everyone at Sky wetting themselves over the world's "richest game"

I mean who can wait to see whether it will be Sheffield United or Sunderland relegated by Easter with under 20 points next season eh

In defence of Sunderland they likely will go back down but at least have support of 40k every week. They have some potential on paper but will likely be as shitty as the rest.

As do Leeds tbf scummy as they are. Sheffield utd never will. Should merge with wednesday and be done with it. Like the 2 Bristol clubs.
