Tottenham reaction to West Ham humiliation
They hath disgraced us and hindered us ninety eight million, laughed at our losses, mocked at our gains, scorned our new stadium, thwarted our bargains, cooled our friends, heated our enemies—and what’s their reason? We are Tottenham men. Hath not a Tottenham man eyes? Hath not a Tottenham man hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions? Fed with the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer as a West Ham man is? If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not crawl into the corner and complain about how unfair it all is? After the trip to Moscow, we needed a rest, we will dissemble now in that. If a Tottenham man wrongs a West Ham man, what is his humility? Revenge. If a West Ham man wrongs a Tottenham man, what should his sufferance be by previous example? Why, to complain. The villainy they have inflicted upon us has been executed—and it shall go hard on AVB as we will now have to spend another fifty million!
a fundamentally racist post, clever joke or not! spuds as shylock (renaissance racist portrayal of a jew), come off it, man! we don't have to stoop to that level!
ReplyDeleteThe Merchant of Newham?
ReplyDeleteYou really are and horrid and despicable little man, rest assured I have sent this to the Metropolitan Police.
ReplyDeleteLOL Have you 0904? And what will the Metropolitan Police do, issue an arrest warrant for a Mr William Shakespeare and for all teachers in the UK who allow students to study his plays?
ReplyDeleteClose Stratford Upon Avon!
Shylock's speech is a speech against antisemitism, so why is its use so offensive given Tottenham fans' defence of the Yid Army cry? The Metropolitan Police said that the fans should not chant Yid Army at the game, so what did the Spurs fans do, even though Jewish people said they found it offensive? They chanted it of course.
Throwing stones in glass houses springs to mind!
Congratulations on your win HF, I must admit I didn't see that comeing, well done!
