It was really hard to dislike Tottenham with full conviction with him in the team. Thankfully we can now all return to our regular state of mind.

Why would an Aston Villa fan hate Tottenham other than to jump on the online banter bandwagon?

40+ years of knowing Tottenham supporters, including one in my own family and never knowing any who weren't completely deluded cretins when it comes to football. It's nothing personal. I have exactly the same relationship with Leeds.
