“The noise just grew louder and louder until I walked out into this blinding sea of white shirts and flags, the bright green pitch, and I could see the Tottenham Hotspur cockerel statue shining next to the same flagpoles where they’d pulled down that swastika flag in the 30s. The noise hit me, went through me and kept coming back over me in waves. It was overwhelming, incredible, and I immediately felt at home.”

@taalumot @heiso @taalumot @heiso i grew up equidistant to both the spurs stadium and emirates. one day, when i was 8, my best friend told me spurs had chosen him. naturally, this made me an arsenal supporter. i hope you can understand that there was no choice in the matter
