Management Ange Postecoglou

There is a thread dedicated to Levy/ENIC.
I’ve had it on ignore for months.
It’s probably the most tedious thread on this site.
How many times can anyone repeat ‘tight bald cunt’ or rail about end stage capitalism without it becoming a crashing bore?

I guess others are ignoring the thread too. If they don’t get the traffic that they want in that thread, the evangelists that think they can get rid of ENIC by convincing others to leave hashtags on the Internet take their argument into every other Tottenham thread. Much of the argument is rabid, pretty thoughtless, and, due to the ‘fervent nature’ of the posters, intentionally deceitful.

I don’t mind tangentially discussing Levy or ENIC here in as much as how they relate to the hiring process — most of which we don’t know although a little more information has been released today. I just don’t want the thread to devolve into the same arguments being discuss elsewhere.
 
Yeah let's all be positive.

Let's ignore all the issues at the club. Our key man may leave. There is a dearth of tripe in the squad. The chairman is likely to lockdown the finances with no europe at all. We've just taken a punt on a coach. Still have no DoF

But hey. Let's all pretend it's all good news and sunshine and rainbows.

I really wish there was a dearth of tripe. I really, really do.
 
He would get paid regardless if he took time to grieve .

He didn't need to, we were 4th place at the time, as far as throwing a flamethrower to place is concerned all he did was criticise the club. It was Levy who got the flamethrower out by installing Stellini as manager.
He criticised everyone including players. Said players would not play for him after that. He knew what he was doing.
He never once took the blame for performances defeats etc. It was always someone elses fault
 
Beat levy with any stick you can he deserves it.
But conte cut and ran. He wanted out and that was the reason for the rant.
Got milions upon millions to spend at chelsea, complained constantly cut and ran, won the league at inter complained constantly cut and ran. Got us to fourth and wanted out cut and ran.
I actually think he cant manage in europe and league hence wanting out after successfull season

I prefer to be objective, can't always blame him otherwise you'll have to always praise him when things go right ;)

Agree on the Conte thing!
 
But we have separate threads for discussing them, otherwise we may as well ask the Admin to combine the Levy/ENIC thread with this one, or perhaps just have one thread on the entire forum and people can post on it what they want ...

:mourloopy:
We could also just have one thread called “players” and have all discussion there. In fact, aye, just have one massive thread for everything related to the club.

As NotThatTedHughes NotThatTedHughes posted, not enough cunt offs happening on the ENIC thread, so the misery has to be spread somehow. Just put the miserable fuckers on ignore. Life gets better.

They deserved to be criticised totally, why shouldn't they be after that performance? I hope Ange will do the same if need be.
 
On his Wikipedia page it says he's not joining Spurs until 1st July.

Angelos Postecoglou (Greek: Άγγελος Ποστέκογλου, /ˈændʒ ˌpɒstəˈkɒɡluː/ anj pos-tə-KOG-loo; born 27 August 1965) is an Australian association football manager and former player, who is currently the head coach of Scottish Premiership club Celtic. He will join Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur as the head coach on 1 July 2023
That's just the official start date, the same applies to transfers
 
That was not commitment, He just wanted to get his paycheck. Commitment would have been signing a new contract.

As far as what you mentioned is concerned, I would expect a proper, self-respecting manager to go to the board and say "look, I'm not in a position to continue my work at the levels that you expect from me and those I expect from myself. I think it is best we part ways and I will stay to shepherd things along until you find a replacement."

Instead he just took a flamethrower to the whole place, so that the club would fire him and him not miss out on his precious $$$. That's about as fucking cowardly as it gets.

He would get paid regardless if he took time to grieve .

He didn't need to, we were 4th place at the time, as far as throwing a flamethrower to place is concerned all he did was criticise the club. It was Levy who got the flamethrower out by installing Stellini as manager.
I think you're both right.

Both Levy AND Conte were dicks and they fucked each other.

Conte came first, but Levy was doing some tantric shit and took fucking ages to finish. Can see how much it wound Conte up, who's clearly a quickie. If a manager's staying power is that important, we would hire Sting Moyes.

I reckon commitment will come when success does. No one wants to leave a club where they are at the top of their game, bringing home silverware. Ange can do that here. Not saying he will, but if he does, there won't be much room above us.

Ah fuck it. You're obviously detached from reality. Might as well be talking to a doorknob.
