Perpetually awful dross like Gill, GLC and fucking shitbags like Hoj and Royal will all be on our books next season. Not one will be sold. Two or three possibly loaned
We don’t have the drive to fund a rebuild. These players should just be forced out and paid off. No-one is paying a fee. We are blinkered and blind, Levy doesn’t see it and half the maniacs on here will
Disagree and still think we can get 15M for Wankberg or 12M for the Brazilian simpleton. GET REAL
Fuck their residual balance sheet value, amortisation etc, fuck them off

The prodigal son returnsStayed out of this thread for a couple of days to improve my mental health, did I miss anything?
Big shady
This place collapsed without your guidance and mentorship
It’s so odd isn’t it. A no brainer. & you just don’t see fans at other clubs so protective & supportive of owners, especially ones who win nothing & rip off the fans as much as possible. A very odd fan base we have. In fact even fans of owners who win CL & title criticise their owners. We have die hard fans of owners & chairman where winning a FA cup seem like some out of this world fairytale!
I totally understand fans being suspicious & sceptical of new owners but then to not be the same with your actual owners who actually failing on the pitch & treating fans like crap whilst profiting themselves. Whilst showing no really hunger & desire to take us to the next level. & to rather sell your world class players rather than support them & seize the chance to go on & be successful on the pitch.
& when there is no realistic hope of winning things under these owners then there really is little to lose by rolling the dice with new owners. It would take a lot to be as unsuccessful with trophies & to treat the fans any worse.
My only conclusion is that they are either very stubborn & hate being proved wrong so keep doubling down on their love of enic & levy. Or they are trolling. Or misplaced faith & support of a rich git who don’t give a shit about them which is very common these days sadly. Why else would you rather millions go to levy than refunding fans who regularly travel up to Newcastle for a humiliating spanking. Or to keep our long loyal OAPs to get cheaper tickets. Or to simply go towards players. Why else would you pick slimy greedy levy over your world class all time top scorer like I predicted (& it’s all about me ha). Or change your view 180 degrees to match levy. Jose is a toxic dinosaur then levy appoints him & in a blink of an eye he is a serial winner.
& the final one is that levy & enic have beaten them down so badly that they are grateful for looking high up above at our bitter rivals going for titles. Hence giving average windows 10/10 & hoping we sign average 7 out of 10 standard players rather than even go for a 8/10. Can’t be greedy & spoilt now can we! Whilst fans of other clubs want superstars or 9/10 type players. Oh well!
As neither a Levy basher or lover (I think he's done some good stuff and some not-so-good and we're stuck with him/ENIC until someone else comes along, who makes that be better or worse), I tend to avoid this thread.
However I saw this on a bench in a fishing village in Malta, and for some me reason, thought this would fit here, don't know why!
"So we are selling anchovies" - an old fishermen's proverb.
It refers to penny-pinching when haggling on a price.

It’s something that never got enough scrutiny, neither from Spurs fans or the wider media.
I honestly cannot think of any club that would sell a player of the stature of Harry Kane and the only attacking players you bring in are Johnson and Solomon.
It’s completely and utterly unacceptable on every single level.
And before any moron chirps in with the “we used Kane’s sale to bring in the likes of VDV and Maddison” that’s complete and utter bollocks too.
Vicario, VDV and Maddison are signings we have needed for YEARS and should have been brought in with our without the sale of Kane.
Gil was just a kid- his development and ceiling are now permanently stunted because he signed with us and has hardly played any ball in three years. Levy and Gil’s own stupid decision to come here has proved awful for his career.
I'll tell you why it hasn't much scrutiny, it's because the vast majority of people are adults and understand that replacing a player like him straight away is near on impossible
We also understand that the manager didn't want him replaced like for like and was more than content to have this team and these players at this current stage of the rebuild (sorry not sorry)
Such a dead argument.
We have a system?Well, Some say we replaced him with 'a system' . .
They knew his contract was running down and he was unlikely to re-sign so they had plenty of time to source a potential replacement.
You're excuses are becoming more pathetic by the day. Everyone sees through you now pal.
Is this "new system" the one where, the team passes the ball around a lot, getting it up around the opposition box, only to pass it all the way back.Well, Some say we replaced him with 'a system' . .
We have seen how effective this is, at Newcastle recently we had,75% possession but lost 4-0, because we don't know how to defend or score.
Yeah, something like that
Yeah you're right, we should have gone for Haaland just in case Kane might not have signed a new contract.
Well, Some say we replaced him with 'a system' . .
To be fair there are not many good forwards about these days but brennan johnson wasnt the answer. I said it seemed like a desperation signing but others think he was high on anges list.
Doesn't suit the narrative though does it.
