Because it generates revenue to hopefully help secure a brighter future.
The present may have to cut their cloth?

It'srather like a parent doing something now & making sacrifices to hopefully give a child the opportunity to be successful in the future.
Revenue generated by charging us the highest season ticket prices in the planet for an 8th place finish.

Don’t understand your analogy - who are the parents and children exactly?
 
Honest John Honest John look what you did?

Ahh. I wondered why he'd stopped replying to me
 
I agree with you about the past 3 years.

I don’t know though if 18 years of excellent performance and 3 years of poor performance can lead to comments like « he’s incompetent » or « he has to go ». I think that’s over the top.

However I don’t think he has forever. The next cycle (couple of years) will be important to me and if he leads similar poor performance then I’m likely to be with you.
Excellent? FFS. This is as polarised as it comes

I hope there is is no cycle. If the bald dwarf cunt keeled over, jelly and ice cream. Resign, go, whatever - just fuck off

It’s not been 18 years of “excellent”performance.

Levy has left the club in Limbo FIVE TIMES.

2003-04 - sacks Hoddle, leaves pleat as caretaker. Santini resigns early. Fortunately Arnesen had brought in Jol.

Summer 2008: engages on a Mexican stand-off with Man Utd over Berbatov. Screws the season up. Two points from 8 games. Ramos sacked. Redknapp brought in. Club flirted with relegation until the January splurge.

2013/14 - Sacks AVB after major squad upheaval goes awry. Hires Sherwood. First choice LVG, who goes to Utd. Got lucky with Poch like with Jol

2021: summer debacle which resulted in Nuno:

2023: ….

Do you think these sorts of things are normal for football clubs or do you think most clubs manage to avoid these situations?

Do you think there are any other ways of measuring the success of a football club apart from managerial turnover ?
 
Stop calling your OWN posts level headed, reasonable, intelligent etc .. you are NOT a valid judge of this, and it just makes you look incredibly conceited.

ENIC in lot have a habit of portraying themselves as great. That's now two of your lot carded for making fun of people for disabilities and using it as an insult - very fucking classy.
Not at all. My post was in response to an accusation of trolling. I get that a lot and any impartial observer would note that I’m not trolling. I just have a different view. And the evidence of that is my reasonable, consistent, evidence-led posts. That is inconsistent with trolling.

If you’re concerned about rhetoric then call out people on « your side » who throw out ridiculous claims or insults. Also check yourself - when you call me a shill or whatever then you’re contributing to the noise.

You replied to a post about being conceited with this? How everyone objective would side with you before fluffing yourself up about how great your posts are?

It's parody level stuff. You might as well have said "I'm not conceited, I'm way too smart and objectively great for that to be true!'.
 
Well getting beat by a pub team showed it wasn't being taken seriously.

We 100% wanted out to concentrate on the race for top 4 at the time imho.
TBH, I did too.
But we didn't throw it against a pub team. Conte had 2 group games, winning the first and losing the second, despite Kane playing the full 90 minutes.
Also had Doherty, Ndombele, Sessegnon (until the prat got himself sent off half hour in) Sanchez, Skipp and Gil in there

We conceded an early Spursy goal, went a man down, and then battered them for 60 minutes. Kane scored and we looked like going on to win and then we did another Spursy.

We didn't get to play the last game, which, had we won, would have put us through.

Again, I reiterate, I DO believe we were better off out of it and going for top 4.
 
Fair points, but Levy and the front office certainly hasn't been as efficient at managing the money they do spend as, for example, Brighton. The roster if full of players who don't seem to fit together. It's like some took one box full of 75% of a Jaguar and another box with 25% of Chevy Volt, dumped them together and expected a ride home.
I totally agree Levy/Enic have not made the best decisions lately.
However people always take the 'best example' say Brighton now to hold up against us.

Very few will say:
We are still top 8 we have hit a slump & while not ideal, at least we aren't in danger of relegation like Everton or Leeds

2 big clubs btw who have both won more titles than us for balance.

I'm sure both would give their right arm to be where we are.


Of course we want to do better but I just find that many fans have a lack of genuine perspective at times & can come across as somewhat 'entitled'

Quite telling that your view on the bad decisions are Levy’s fault and the good ones are fortunate and lucky. 🤔

They would side with me not being a troll, yes.

The fact you’re unable to deal with the substance and concede anything shows what a heightened emotional state you’re in or what a limited capacity for thought you have. Or both.

Ffs I’m completely calm. And you’re still making yourself look ridiculous with this whole putting your intellect on a pedestal and attacking the intellectual capacity of others bullshit.

It makes you such an easy target for abuse. In fact it IS abusive, it’s just passive aggressive abusiveness. Don’t act outraged when someone calls you a cunt, because if I said to someone ‘you have a limited capacity for thought’ in real life, I wouldn’t expect civility in return.

Like I’ve said before - your civil act is fake and disingenuous. It’s not intelligent to constantly go on about how smart you are.

That's true. It's the nature of fans in all sports. If it isn't a championship then everyone and everything is wrong. I think teams should be playing at or just above their revenue rank. Spurs don't seem to manage that. The irony is I think a lot of fans would settle for being properly entertained.

Why have you failed to deal with the fact I said that in response to a false accusation of trolling? That was the context. Comment on the actual context or sit down - no one wants to read your silly little diatribes.

If you don’t agree I am trolling with my views then you have nothing to say.

You don’t. Yet again you mistake yourself for everyone else, despite being deeply unpopular. But of course, everyone else is wrong, right?

You are a troll. You constantly wind people up deliberately by insulting their intelligence. You post blatantly inflammatory crap all the time.

You also post seriously sometimes & I genuinely just think you’re a big fan of Levy. But there is no denying you regularly post on the wind up. Your posts often STINK of it.
 
Now that any meaningful excuses to apologise for the ENIC sham have been exhausted, it seems the most rabid regime enthusiasts are now resorting to belittling and demeaning our once great football club in some new gutter trawling tactic to justify the bastards.

It really is pathetic to see. Quite disgusting actually.
