The difference between Spurs and Boro???

Spurs have a board who won`t tolerate failure. Underachieve and you`re out.

We have Gibbo who will not remove the manager even if we go down, but will instead talk of "Continuity" and "Keeping Faith".

One difference is the fans.

They have a superiority complex where we have an inferiority complex.

One is overachieving and Spurs are perennial underachievers.

Spurs are the biggest club in London, on fan base. They are the most underachieving established Premier League club and have spent bucket loads on players, a lot more than most, yet still make a profit.

Even though they have the most expensive tickets in the country, they sell out nearly every game.

We are a small town in europe.

One has lots of shops selling knock off dvds and phone cards outside the ground, while we're yet to develop the surroundings to our ground in the same way.

'Spurs have a board who won`t tolerate failure. Underachieve and you`re out'

Interesting policy. If they applied the same standards to themselves then they would have to also go as this policy is also under achieving.

They keep on employing managers who also don't win anything.

So basically what you are saying is Gibson should adopt a policy that we can see by your example clearly doesn't work.

Haven't really thought this one through have you Arch.
