See, this is the real problem with Spurs (and their supporters) - they define themselves not by what they do on the pitch, but on how their north London rivals do. A successful season for Spurs might find them without silverware and in 10th, but as long as Arsenal doesn't win anything, it is OK. I can't think of another club in the Premiership that defines themselves or their successes contingent upon how their primary rivals fare.

I could care less if Arsenal has gone trophy-less for 5 seasons though I'm sure their supporters would. I just can't stand this perennial victim-complex that is rife with Tottenham supporters, especially over here in SE England. And for the life of me I have never been able to figure it out.
