Brumstopdogs Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Just to confirm the overall and complete performance in the main 2 competitions: Tottenham: 2 league titles and 4 runner ups, 47 years out of the top flight (last winner or runner up 47 years ago!) European Cup - no chance! Villa: 7 league titles and 10 runner ups, more recent winner and runner up than the tots plus an extra 35 years as a top flight team! A whopping 79 out of 122 top flight years spent above Spurs! European Cup winners - yes! So Spurs overall less successful in both the main competitions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The complete picture shows just how inferior Spurs have been! No need to hide facts away - this is everything in the main 2 comps! Villa vastly superior to Spurs overall in the main 2 comps! :winkold: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulMcgrathsknees Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I hate Spurs because of Melted Candlewax Face. (Rule bending, tax avoiding, self-proclaimed victim) Need to get that post in before I lose focus and start to hate Spurs because 2/3 of their fans are clearly cockney self-righteous morons. I hate Spurs because of Melted Candlewax Face. I hate Spurs because of Melted Candlewax Face. I hate Spurs because of Melted Candlewax Face. I hate Spurs because of Melted Candlewax Face.

AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 After talking with several people, I can confirm Spurs are definitely the best team in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlastonSpur Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 ... So Spurs overall less successful in both the main competitions ... But, unfortunately for Villa, less successful than Spurs since WWI onwards. As I've said, it's perhaps time for Villa fans to stop looking backwards into the remote, Victorian past when the league was tiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I've said, it's perhaps time for Villa fans to stop looking backwards into the remote, Victorian past when the league was tiny. What's the difference between looking at the league 130 years ago and looking at it say 60 years ago? It's history. Perhaps you should stop looking and just cutting off certain points in history that fits in with your pointless arguement. Fecking hell, you can't even admit Villa have a better history, Spurs are in a better current position and probably have more potential than Villa like growing the club but fecking hell, your history is below ours. Accept it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glaston, you are the Kim Jong Il of football message boards. : Yet another post that insists on trying to put someone else's words in my my mouth ... always a sign of a weak argument. I haven't said that Villa's Victorian era trophies don't exist or don't count, and I'm happy to agree that Villa were the most successful league club in that distant era. What I have said is simply this: 1) The value of trophies won when the league structure was tiny - and most of today's clubs weren't even it - is diminished in comparison to later times: big fish in small pond = far less competition. 2) That since WWI Villa have been a less successful club than Spurs - by a 16 to 9 trophy count. The first item is an opinion that most reasonable fans would agree with, and the 2nd item is simply a statement of fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So in conclusion, you accept that Villa once enjoyed a position in the game that Spurs have never come close to and as such a longer and richer history. You also accept that Villa have won more than Spurs. Seems like we agree at last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
