Don't laugh. He might be our back up striker soonJust noticed that the first post in this thread is criticizing Levy for not buying Benteke. I think he got that one right anyway.

This will be on Football London in the morning now.Don't laugh. He might be our back up striker soon
"Tottenham have been linked ..."
I just had to add this to your call to arms......Never say never.
I feel the genie is out the bottle now. Too many fans have woken up to what ENIC are and what they represent.
They can only frantically douse the fires with ad hoc managerial appointments and stage managed propaganda interviews for so long.
It's gonna be a long and painful road, I fear, but I think we've scaled the top of the mountain and on the distant, very distant, horizon, there is a chink of light we can march towards.
And as we march, more will follow, and a small sorry band of scoundrels led by Airfixx the Apologiser will be left in our wake.
Today, warriors, we can have hope in our heart. For tomorrow can be glorious
Help to buy approved, you'll never sing that
Everything levy does , makes no damn sense
From Why hire Mourinho when you don't intend to back him properly
And then why sack him before a cup final and 4 points off top 4 only to struggle on finding new manager ?
Btw i would never , ever sack Mourinho if i was levy , i mean he is such a great scapegoat , you can even blame a shit weather on Mourinho, you can blame every mess on him while you hide behind unexposed
And then why hire Nuno ?
Then why hire conte when you know he is even more toxic than Mourinho ?
Nothing makes sense to me

Already explained - Liverpool and West Ham were right when new lockdown rules were introduced and people decided to stay away.
Palace was boxing day. it's always dead on boxing day. I went, I had arguments with my wife because I went, I had to drive miles out of my way to get a tube because the entire train network was closed.
Morcombe was no different to any other FA Cup game against lower league teams. You aren't getting a big crowd to see the B team lumber away at a lower league team.
Last night is the one that stands out. But you can't compare it to another teams league match.
Its not always dead on boxing day its normally one thats sells out. Morecambe, fair enough, thats actually an ok attendance. I'm not saying there is some movement thats started but it appears there is an awful lot of apathy around.
I've been to all the boxing day games for years and they have all been low attendance.
Just to clarify - since we went to Wembley. All of the attendances there and at the new stadium would have sold out the old ground + 5-10k more.
Good. Anything that improves the Tottenham area and the lives of the residents there is a good thing in my book. ENIC should be applauded for improving the area rather than derided for it. Without them in modern times it would be in a lot worse state.
Looking at other boxing day attendances m
Man city , Brighton , Newcastle all full .
This is not just a few thousand short but 20,000 is catastrophic.
People are giving up . NLD cup final will be full but after that it looks as before.
So we have a billion debt for an extra 5k tickets sold. Where is that business case?!!
Hahaha yes that’s the reason they are doing it. Philanthropists
I suspect they are building it all to sell it on in the future whilst retaining the stadium. Develop the area to push up prices then sell those developments on in time.
The only other boxing day fixture at the new ground was Brighton in 19/20 56,308. Ok not sold out but a 11,000 drop in 2 years.
Visiting tottenham today is unrecognisable from 5 let alone 25 years ago.
I'm sorry but having family live there all my life, I'm happy for any improvements to the area saying it's been left to fend for itself since the second world war by successive governments both national and local. It's about time it had its chance
Boxing day 2017 Vs Southampton 5-2 win @ Wembley 57k - 23k down on capacity
Boxing day 2018 Vs Bournemouth 5-0 Vs Bournemouth 45k - 35k down on capacity
Boxing Day 2019 Vs Brighton 2-1 THFC Stadium 56k - not bad
2020 no game and no fans anyway.
All of those games didn't have covid to throw in to the mix either.

None of those fans use a CLOSED train network to get there.
Edit - and all of those stadiums have less seats than us. There was twice as many Spurs fans in the half empty stadium as there were Brighton fans in a sold out Amex.
What?
I'm saying just because boxing day sold out the old 35k seat stadium doesn't mean boxing day (1 game a year) sells out the new 63k seater.
Mate it’s not just Boxing Day….. look at the data. There are thousands of resale tickets every game (bar Sunday)
