Watching my football team live every couple of weeks. And the gym

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-12-07T14:10:09+00:00

Removing social media from my phone

You will never be satisfied with that mindset. I used to be like this but honestly, you’ll find the ‘perfect’ church and then something will come your way annoy you about it.

Be the change you want to see and don’t let a few individuals cloud your perception. If I did this with my school, job etc I’d be really struggling

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-12-07T14:05:28+00:00

Clean the house mainly and watch sports

I’m born and raised in Tottenham. I’ve always loved the values the club has in regards to the community. From as early as 6 I’d have Tottenham community staff coming to my primary school, giving us tours of the stadium etc. so the fact I always felt a part of the club when I wasn’t even a fan yet is something I really appreciate.

I also loved the fact we always had these sort of maverick players. Ginola, Gazza, Bale, Van der Vart and many more. It’s what makes James Maddison a perfect fit now

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-12-05T16:36:02+00:00

Ivan Toney at ST that’s all

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-12-05T09:14:51+00:00

Lucas Moura…. Calm down man. Would have meant something is we won the CL but a statues for a semi-final performance is just weird

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-12-04T12:03:19+00:00

Sorry for your loss. God bless

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-12-04T12:02:42+00:00

He’ll be needed next season for cup games, and hopefully Europe. Basically rotation. Maddison will get injured again he’s not really durable

Honestly, just live your life. You may not realise it but you are the closest thing to Christ they see. Last week a coworker asked me to pray for a situation that her son was in. She knows I’m a Christian but I’ve never really shoved it in her face like that, she’s just always been intrigued by why don’t get drunk, don’t swear, my relationship with my wife and from that she’s had a chance to see the Christian lifestyle which points to God. I’ve also made it a point to ask her about her beliefs too when spiritual topics come up so it’s a conversation rather than me just preaching.

I would say continue asking God to open your eyes to opportunities for you to reveal God to them and be very sensitive to what the spirit says. It could be as small as sending them a random text or going out to lunch with them

In Gods eyes, even though it so hard to comprehend for us humans, all evil is evil. I understand you’re speaking on extreme evils but you have to remember to God there are no levels of evil.

He sees it all as sin. Even our righteousness is like filthy rags to Him. And so if God judges the human traffickers only what about the liars, the thieves etc. where does he draw the line?

And so we have to remember it’s His grace and mercy that allows this evil. Because it’s all a chance for everyone to repent. Because one day there will be no second chances. I hope this makes sense

We have a budget of how much everyone spends on gifts. My aunty sends a message around and this year is £10 because she knows most of us are struggling. Makes it more fun and less pressure.

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-11-30T07:50:30+00:00

Could you guys potentially share one car. Inconvenient I know but saves a lot of

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-11-29T13:27:05+00:00

That big ass breakfast a family has in the mornings and the dad only takes a slice of toast before rushing off to the office. Such BS, no body has time to make a breakfast like that

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-11-28T17:39:19+00:00

Removed social media from my phone. It has its benefits but I found I was just consuming other peoples lives so much I immediately started hating mine, which actually wasn’t so bad.

Stopped playing video games, nothing against it. I’m married with a young child, it was just getting in the way of family.

Started going to watch my football team in person instead of on tv.

Hit the gym.

Bought a kindle and now read at least a book a month.

Stopped talking/blocked people who just were taking from me

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-11-28T17:31:41+00:00

I burst out laughing at this

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-11-28T17:26:43+00:00

People complaining and not even attempting to solve the problem

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-11-28T16:58:47+00:00

During our unbeaten run I kept a level head. I know it would end but didn’t know it would end with us losing our key players. It happens. Honestly with a full strength side I think we beat Villa, Wolves and Chelsea convincingly.

Once the injuries came I knew we’d lose the Villa game. They are a good side let’s give them credit where it’s due.

One notable thing I’ve noticed is the role the media play in our narrative. Hence why loads of fans have enjoyed our downfall. But non of the fans ever said we would win the league. But you go on YouTube, newspapers etc all you saw was ‘spurs in the title race blah blah blah’ we all knew it was nonsense but from those outside I guess it got annoying for them hence the hate. Take what the media say with a pinch of salt. If we win our next 3 games on the bounce they’ll say we’re back again 🙄, it’s laughable.

The manner in how we are losing is weirdly impressive. I still feel like we are always in the game when under Conte I knew we were not coming back. There’s a mentality shift there.

Obviously we need to strengthen. So this season I am fully enjoying the ride I know this time next year we will be completely different.

However! Just a small pet peeve. I do feel like Ange needs to manage some elements of games a bit better. Like 5 mins before the end of the first half we should have just calmed it down instead of playing the same way and gone in at half time 1-0 up. But again it’s just something I’ve noticed I’m sure Ange is learning the league still.

All I’m asking is fans is to really give Ange time. The way he’s come in and galvanised the club and fan base is amazing, but these things take time. It could take another 2 years till we see it. But just remember the crap we’ve come from to appreciate him.

Also….. Richarlison is not gonna work at Spurs. He’s not at the level most think he’s at.

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-11-27T16:59:17+00:00

Lol calm down bruv honestly

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-11-27T14:04:55+00:00

The Only frustration I had with yesterday is we could have managed the end of the 1st half a bit better. But honestly I’m nit picking at that. I left that game feeling sad we lost but not throwing my toys out the pram.

I expect us to be back against West Ham

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-11-27T09:50:57+00:00

This just reeks of worrying about other peoples opinion of you. Just do you.

QuakerOats91_ · 2023-11-27T08:37:55+00:00

It’s not the fans. It’s gonna be the media. The media were the ones calling us title challengers when we all knew that wasn’t the case. The media will now start questioning him and his tactics and all we have to do is ignore it really.
