If Spurs weren't pure scum, you'd almost feel sorry for them, the situation there is as bleak as can be. None of my friends are Spurs fans as I don't socialise with scum, but I imagine they must be pretty depressed - makes our situation look incredibly good.

Although I do think there is a possible future in which we slide into something akin to Spurs current situation - an owner with "his own take" on how to run a club, featuring massively long contracts on low money that you renew yearly for a little more every year, so that players are trapped like slaves with no way out, and no hope to win anything stuck in a squad with a few decent players but mostly dross. If we don't start regularly qualifying for CL to up our income I could easily see us end up in a "you must sell to buy" situation and start to slide in that direction (surely the cash that was to be injected to turn the club around is close to dry at this point).

This depends upon whether the club can find a good manager to lead this young-ish side and get us competing for the top 4. 

There are a few holes in the squad (GK, CB, CF) but there's enough quality to be giving it a go against most PL sides.
