...and so the football season comes to its conclusion today. What a thoroughly awful season its been.... and threatens to continue to get worse - both on its final day, and beyond.

I don't know what is actually worst case for us today. I guess any mix of results that sees Arsenal finish ahead of us would simply be a kick in the wotsits. But Arsenal finishing ahead of us AND them getting into Europe would just add a slap in the chops to this initial kicking.

A few weeks ago Arsenal were pretty much certain of having no European football next season - while we would scrape in. But never underestimate our ability to muck up.....

But if we do, by some miracle, get a place in Europe, it will only be in Europe's third competition where the likes of Liechtenstein's cup winners will also feature..... And us getting to Europe would mean probably having to beat Leicester (yeah right) but that would hand both Chelsea AND Liverpool a place in the Champions League....

All this and no manager, a star player who wants out, and others who are any good will follow his lead. We have soooo many players who are simply not good enough and a load more coming to the end of their careers. All this and no money to re-build the squad and pay down our massive debts.

From where we were in 2017-18 to this. So predictable... so Spursy.... I'd love to know the conversations that took place when Spurs stayed out of the transfer market and exactly who was responsible for not realising our promising young squad was getting older and results had peaked.... But while interesting, what's done is done and it won't change our new reality.

I just hope Levy shows some class (something he's lacked in the last year in particular) and allows Harry to leave and that wherever he ends up, Harry gets the trophies his talent thoroughly deserves. But I suspect instead this will end up in another embarrassing episode that does no one's reputation any good and just makes Tottenham Hotspur Football Club look even cheaper and classless than we do now.

I hate football.

Cheers and wash your tears away!

You can scrape by until next season. In fact, watch the Ladies play. [;)]

Live or taped, lookup your favorite moments and rewatch them.

Or you can find some girls and play with Barbie dolls with them. [:D]

The wrong type of football.

Although that version does have cheerleaders. [:D]

And they are to greedy. In my humble opinion, that is.

Edit: Although the same can be said about football as well. And many other sports.

I won't argue with them being too greedy.

Thank you, RangerJoe. [:)] [&o]

It always helps to be reminded when I do spelling errors. I suspect that I will continue to make them for as long as I live. But I strive to improve myself.

You are welcome. I understand what I think what most people mean but it is better to make sure. [;)]

I also make spelling errors. It is part of being human. The people who might have the most trouble with spelling errors would be witches and warlocks since they could get into the most trouble with them. [X(]

NFL should have games in Portugal. Like Manchester City vs Chelsea Champions league final. Because of UK covid regulations...
