Good morning

Apparently you boys have held talks with our manager Kieran McKenna. A few nervous town fans around at the moment because we think he’ll come. He’s a fantastic young coach so I hope nothing comes of it. Leif Davis is decent one of our players that Spurs are tracking. He’s been fantastic this season and could definitely play at a higher level.

Ah good ole Keiran, formerly a spurs u18 manager!

I definitely knew that and did not google him
 
So much for just being the custodian of the club for the fans!
Just to ensure I understand, has he ever claimed to be 'custodian of the club for the fans'? If not then I'm sorry but that's just a fantasy notion made up by fans worldwide. He (well, he and and his associates via ENIC) OWN the club, so can pretty much do what they want with it (within the rules / law of course). They've gained that privilege by running businesses well enough (or however you want to phrase it) to amass enough wealth to purchase the club and hence all of its assets, goodwill (insert your own joke here... :) ), opportunities etc. It's a myth that club owners owe anything (physically I mean) to fans - they do not.

Of course if fans disagree with what club owners do, they can 'vote with their wallets' (i.e. not spend a penny on the club, inc. junking Sky etc) and/or vote with their feet / voices by protesting, influencing others etc, as some do. If enough people do either to make a difference, then the owners will have to change or sell. If not enough people do that, then the owners will continue as they are. Just the same as with any other business (which is what it is, like it or not). (Note that I'm trying to be careful here to remain neutral - I'm not judging either way - I'm merely pointing out that the fans do not have any direct say in how the club is run, and the owners have no direct obligation to give them one - the owners own the club and so can run it as they wish, irrespective of how little we fans might like it / find it hard to accept).

Of course if any of us has a few billion quid sitting around, the other option is to offer to buy the club - then you can be the owner, and run it as you wish (which I'm sure would please some fans and displease others - this manager hunt discussion alone shows us how impossible it is to please everyone).

I don’t think levy would take that kind of risk with the fanbase being at boiling point tbh.

He might be excellent but for right now I don’t see us approaching him,
 
Just my opinion; Felix, Fofana, Mudryk, Enzo. Havertz, Mudueke.

I hate Chelsea but there is no denying they have a plethora of exciting young talent.

Chelsea fans hate Felix because he's rubbish, Fofana is in the reserves and they have probably ruined him already, Mudryk is young but hasn't shown anything exciting yet, Enzo is class but never going to dominate as a 6 because of the physicality, Haverts?? this was a joke?, Mudueke is probably wondering what the hell he has got himself stuck in....Is he also on a mental long contract? hope for his sake he isn't
 
He took over the Spain National team in 2018 and piloted them to two last 16 WC exits.
Luis Enrique has only taken Spain to one World cup, Qatar.

Lopetegui was the Spanish manager in Russia 2018. Well, more accurately he took Spain to Russia but was sacked two days before Spain's first game, with Fernando Hierro, the Director of Football taking over as caretaker manager for the tournament.

Where has that come from?
Have you guys got lying fake ITK's like us?
I'm sure you guys are safe and secure for the time being.

Although he is basically a Spurs boy.

Very unlikely imo

He's a very good young coach and speaks very well but it's too early for him here

Personally 100% on board with signing anyone called Leif.

But on the strict condition they wear Viking face paint every game and they have to win an axe duel first against our own resident Viking Pierre-Emile.
