TOTTENHAM Hotspur demolished their season at St James’ Park yesterday.

Following reports of something resembling optimism among supporters, the club dispatched its 11-man hope-disposal squad to lay down on the Newcastle pitch.

Manager Mauricio Pochettino said: “The main thing is that no Arsenal fan’s pride was hurt and we managed to get our fans out of the stadium as quickly and quietly as possible.

“I’d also like to thank the players for ending the season in such a calmly inept manner.”

It has been confirmed the suspiciously high level of optimism had been left behind in February as part of a training exercise in winning the league.

Questions are now being asked as to how it could have stayed in people’s minds for this long unnoticed.
