No I didn’t.
My expectations for a season are that we are top six and give the cups a decent go. Sides with more clout and more money generally win these things. Aye, there’s the odd glitch where Leicester drug themselves to the heavens and Wigan get a lucky cup, but more than 90% of the time a club bigger and more rich than us win the shiny things. I know this and even though we have some major issues to resolve, things aren’t a complete mess as far as our position is concerned.
What’s your expectations going into a season?
As for ENIC being less likely to sell if there’s an Out movement, what’s the point of it then? Is it just using this place as somewhere to vent?
Maybe a case to meet you halfway and say ENIC are a victim of some of their success financially.
Top 6 and the plucky underdogs was a reasonable target when we were in WHL.
You can't have:
the best stadium in Europe, maybe the world,
the best facilities in Europe,
the highest season ticket prices and...
refuse to sell the best players in the world like Harry Kane,
then get away with saying Top 6 and plucky underdogs is an acceptable outcome.
Brighton are plucky underdogs, even Villa now.
Spurs and ENIC need to find the courage to admit that winning is now the acceptable outcome and find a way to really compete to achieve it. There is nowhere to hide from that pressure now.
Conte was right about that. This club doesn't want to accept the pressure of being winners.
Well, like it or not, the noise from those fans in the arena made it abundantly clear now that winning is the only acceptable outcome and winning in style as well.
Levy and ENIC need to deal with that pressure or get out of the kitchen if they are too small-time to hack it.
