    Loudest the fans have been all game and it’s to celebrate them conceding, what the actual fuck is wrong with that club man

      And that is why they’ll never even come close to winning anything else. Who the fuck roots for their team to lose?

        Only excuse is for an El Sackico kinda thing and even then like ehhhhhhh. no.

        can’t imagine why the Premier League struggles with city dominance when fans suck them off like this

          Tribalism is idiotic. They say that we’ll do that if we’re in the same position, fuck that they irrelevant so why would we care?

      I dont know that I have the fortitude to watch it. 1) Spurs are so shit that I see very little point in it. 2) I had enough of supporting chaos bullshit ball under Emery to last a life time- and that’s been you add the shit sauce into the mix.

    I’ve conceded, just going to enjoy Sunday. I mean it’s still pins and needles watching the games but far less stressful and more enjoyable this season.

    On a side note, I didn’t really like the second episode of this season of Doctor Who…it was like that scene in Multiverse of Madness but expanded.

      The annoying thing is it was the best scene in MoM, but done worse :p Space Babies was brilliant though I thought. Also it’s kinda funny how this community has now just basically become partially about Doctor Who XD though honestly we can talk about whatever in Daily Discussion that’s the point

        Space Babies was ruined by that constant Disney soundtrack in the background, killing the dialogue and sound effects a lot of the time.

          that’s just Doctor Who though, at least given what i’ve watched of the first few seasons lmfao

        That being said, Maestro is good, and the acting was great; the story just didn’t quite hit for me.

          And maybe it’s cuz I’m jumping between Matt Smith and Ncuti, but the effects feel very excessive. It’s not dingy enough for Doctor Who, you know what I mean?

          My 6 year old, not bothered about snot monsters, but is now terrified of being attacked by musical notation…

          Gotta admit, I’m not sold on this iteration of the doctor yet, but I was the same with all the new Who’s aside from Peter Capaldi. But I loved him as Malcolm Tucker beforehand.

            Tbh they should’ve done the music differently, just using notation in the same way as MoM felt almost lazy in a way?

            Yknow what would’ve been cool: if it worked like sonic waves instead — then you could have more interaction with the new totally-still-a-screwdriver.

    It absolutely is hilarious that Spuds fans absolutely do not understand the monetary implications of them losing out on CL. Pathetic bunch.

      It makes me chuckle to think of the spuds fans’ glee over this loss. I bet most of them think all gooners are raging or in tears about this.

      Joke’s on them. Many of us kind of knew City would win this one (and almost certainly the league). But at the end of the day our team has gone toe-to-toe against one of the best teams in the world, and our lads can hold their heads high.

      Finishing on even 86 points; with our keeper winning the golden glove; and the lads not being defeated by any other top six teams is just amazing. We have one of the best young managers in the game who loves our club to his core. An amazing squad that is still improving game by game, and who play some of the best football in the world. The club is being run by guys who are formidable in the transfer market. And we have owners who, love them or hate them, have backed us very well financially for a few seasons now. We are on the up, and finishing a narrow second this season is nothing to be ashamed of.

      Meanwhile, Spurs has a shaky squad that has faded hard, a joke of an owner, a thoroughly disillusioned manager, and a fan base that gets more joy out of seeing their team lose than win.

      So enjoy you 15 minutes of gloating at our expense, spuds. We’ll be back even better and stronger next season. Where will you be? Lmao

    In hindsight, that January window with Trossard, Jorginho, and Kiwior was a masterpiece; we’d be fucked if we didn’t have any one of them this season.
