The one where Spurs won the League Cup

At last something for Spurs fans to celebrate. Our first trophy since 1999, when Ginola roamed freely down the left flank. Sadly the team could not build from that and fell apart and went through numerous managerial changes.
Nine years since we had something to cheer about. And finally 4 months into the Ramos era we've done it. Ramos help instill a sense of self belief in performing more than ourselves. He instilled the winning mentality and the difference is for all to see especially in the final. Had the previous regime still lead the team, Spurs would have folded after going one down. But now the team never gave up and kept fighting. We our new found stamina we lasted the entire game, and the blue side from West London couldn't keep up.
I will spare all the details and highlights of the game. You can catch the goals here. But Spurs fans all over the globe would like to hail our goal scorers, the Count from Bulgaria and the 70s hippie trapped in the 21st century. As well as all the players who just played their hearts from start till finish. And not forgetting, our gaffer Mr Ramos.
Even today at work I just kept going on and on about our win. Then again its not everyday Spurs fans have something to celebrate.

Congrats to all Spurs fans. Though it breaks my heart to say this as a gunners fan, Spurs deserved to win the cup.

And Ramos showed chelski that a 100 million pound team don't mean squat without a decent manager. :)
