Talk:List of Tottenham Hotspur F.C. records and statistics

message: Should this not be part of the club page? Are their statistics themselves notable? I would imagine that statistics about a sporting team fit the very definition of being part of the clubs page.

message: I have removed this "stat" because it is an unfair comparison and a meaningless statistic. Spurs are one of only a few clubs to have been in every season of the Premiership, and therefore will obviously have accrued a higher total of goals conceded than many teams which have not.  The comparison can only be against a small number of teams (seven or eight) which have also been in the Premiership every season, and therefore is not a notable national record.  A comparison could be made on the average goals conceded per season, but not the total, which is statistically meaningless. The only reason for including cannot be for factual information but to try and imply something detrimental, i.e. a POV. Stephenb (Talk) 09:13, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Your argument is somewhat valid - though exactly the same points apply to any given competition and plenty of other clubs similar records proudly listed in terms of goals scored, or wins or losses when they hold a particular record. On top of that the Premier League is at least a recognised change in competition and at least far more valid than an invented "record" using 100% arbitrary time periods in order to exist. e.g. there's very little notable in being the first to achieve anything in any given century, such a time constraintclearly implies the real record of genuinely being first is held by someone else! As for those challenging the legitimacy of having records related to the Premier League that's a more valid concern but the fastest goalscorer record is already there, so that sets the precedent. If the less valid and similarly valid records are removed too then that's fine, but please be consistent rather than selectively removing records which are the least positive.--Shakehandsman (talk) 04:02, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Most Premier League goals conceded since its formation

message: A number of new statistics relating to a) individual players and b) of dubious merit were added 25/26 Feb which I have reverted. If I have been over zealous with any of these please discuss here first. Happy to reinstate any if the concensus is that they are relevant here rather than on the individual players' sites, merit an equal mention (and can be verified) alongside the more major club milestones and recordsTmol42 (talk) 09:50, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Spurs' record :) Didn't see your posting here prior to my small restoration, BTW. Would have made a note here otherwise. Stephenb (Talk) 10:18, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  No problem :-) you were correcting as I wrote this.  Pondered on Ledley a while but could not sort the right criteria to distingusih his from the others, which you spotted. Like you I have been maning the barricades over the past 24 hours repelling some  rather dubious editors as well as adjusting some edits from well-meaning but rather over enthusiastic new supporters!

message: ,  Kosack recommended removing the other-friendly honours from main page, so should we also list the honours here along with the other honours and what place in the article should we list them? Govvy (talk) 13:01, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Looks like a good idea to move it on this article with a section on something like 'Friendly honours' or similar, perhaps below the Rankings section as it lists Spurs as the fifth highest ranked team in major honours. We'll see. Iggy (Swan) 13:46, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Well I went and moved the other honours over and per your suggestion moved to the bottom of the page. Govvy (talk) 14:51, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Also I was looking at the source, there seem to be a few more listed on the Spurs website than what we have listed here, Govvy (talk) 14:54, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

text: I would copy the main honours here as well. The main article would list only the main honours, while the full list can be given here (and you can also add others not added here). Hzh (talk) 16:26, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: , k, I copied those honours over, will come back to this article to match up the missing honours another time. Cheers, Govvy (talk) 16:42, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Protect 

message: We mention FA Cup wins but League Cup wins and runners up.  For consistency, should we add in FA Cup runners up and see how/if this affects the ranking? Or drop runners up from League Cup and likewise "re-rank"? LenF54 (talk) 14:49, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Rankings 

message: Is it really a 'British Record' to have only played 40 games in a season whilst in the Premier League? 10 other teams have done the same (3 have done it more than once) and Spurs weren't even the first team to do it (Sunderland 2001-02). It get it is 'technically' a record as it can't currently be lower but if 11 teams out of 49 (22.5%) have done it then its not exactly 'unique/rare'  KingGorack (talk) 20:57, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I've amended it to "Joint fewest", although "Equal fewest" is just as good.  I would be inclined to remove it altogether but I will wait for others to comment. LenF54 (talk) 16:09, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
thread_title: British Records

message: That line piqued my interest due to their relative lack of success and the strangely low number. I tried to find any sourcing for it but failed. The wider European record just for the Champions league is "Bayern Munich (2019–20 and 2020–21) holds the record of 15 consecutive wins" from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Cup_and_UEFA_Champions_League_records_and_statistics#Consecutive_wins
It was originally added way back in 2008 without source or questioning since then. Should it be removed? This is the original edit:
