Is it a possibility that Levy, Cullen and co now are just happy with a PL mid table finish and investing just enough to get that?

They’re seeing their riches come in from the NFL, concerts, boxing and tourists visiting on a matchday.. they’re happy to line their pockets with the income and as long as the club has Premier League status, that’s all that matters. Removing THFC from the badge points to that even more.

The fans are turning up regardless of form.
 

Yeah he's not going anywhere. Fucking pathetic. They aren't judging him game by game either apparently.

Actually bizarre. Levy always been quick to sack managers, even world class ones, but the 60 year old fat aussie blagger who is miles out of his depth is the one Levy decides to back despite the overwhelming evidence he is taking us nowhere but down.

No.
 
Should be fine with people changing their mind tbh. IDK why theres a culture on the internet of calling people out because their views changed, isn't that a really natural thing, you get provided with insurmountable evidence and choose to account for it in your opinion?
Plus end of the day I think everyone really just wants to see the club do well, some of us think thats under Ange and the vast majority of us don't, I'd really like to see him gone asap because the fanbase is toxic as fuck right now and we could really do with a lift.

I'm totes fine with folks changing their minds...evidence of an agile brain and intellectual honesty.
IDK why theres a culture on the internet of calling people out because their views changed,
Because people are stupid. And because changing you mind is viewed as weakness. And, disingenuously, cultural 'leaders' have made it so in order to tear down opposition...and it's usually folks that are trying to pander to the anti-intellectual masses. Most intelligent folks appreciate evolving perspectives...
isn't that a really natural thing,
...yes, one would hope...
you get provided with insurmountable evidence and choose to account for it in your opinion?
...and here is where things get sticky in the internet world. "Insurmoutnable evidence" is not necessary to alter one's perspective. Appropriate or reasonable evidence should get folks to back down from their shitty takes but in the internet world they double down and get toxic instead of measured...Instead, these folks holdout until they realize that they will lose whatever 'credibility' they may have had if they continue to support their nonsense...and then the rotten cunts want to post 'look at me, give me like, and positive ratings' posts about finding reason that so many have found months before and without the toxic, contrarian bullshit...and it's the same cunts every time!
Plus end of the day I think everyone really just wants to see the club do well, some of us think thats under Ange and the vast majority of us don't,
Really? Because as we hurdle toward relegation with over a year of relegation form these same idiots have continued to back the exact guy that's driving the fucking bus off the road. Do they really want what's best for Spurs or do they like the attention and engagement?

There was a point where I think it would have been fair to argue that...we are way past that point...now it's about real fanz tribalism...
I'd really like to see him gone asap because the fanbase is toxic as fuck right now and we could really do with a lift.
The most toxic were just doing it to be seen...there has been no reasonable justification for backing Ange to this point...none. And because their reasoning had to change week to week supports this. there was no positive reason beyond hope...and always excuses for the negative.
I said it earlier, but everyone’s got a breaking point

Some people get to it quicker than others
A year of relegation form...at this point it's not about getting anywhere 'quicker'...it's about something else...Real fanz...
... being a "real" fan means being behind the players and the manager no matter what. No negativity allowed...
...mindless support.

not sure about that, think they'd want conference league at least so that there's more stadium use during the season

fuck have to think levy and the board have determined we're not likely to get relegated so we're sticking with ange until the end of the season. to them anything above 18th is fine and they can have an easier go at finding the replacement after the season. if things really turn south i guess they'll try mason or someone currently unemployed but i think they don't want to pay someone who isn't their first choice. meanwhile we fans get to suffer the ignominy of a relegation fight with the fat cunt for the next 4 months. this absolutely sucks

NFL’s two games a year v 20 + 61,000 crowds is unlikely to be a factor.

Concerts v league places, that’s an interesting one. Let’s assume a concert generates a profit of £1m. It’s about £1m between places in the Premier League, so rationale would be you would only get ahead with these concerts sitting beside success in the premier league.

No Europe at all will totally kill any benefit of concerts / other events I’d imagine ( unless we are talking Conference league which is entirely a loss leader ).

Everything hangs on Tottenham staying up and being competitive I think. Which makes the current state of things ever more puzzling.

I can only assume the club is about to be sold. That’s the only thing that can possibly explain this problem not being dealt with.
 
Nuno was fired after the stadium went toxic in that horrible 0-3 defeat to Man United. The question is; is the place going to be toxic against Leicester?
Depends on the way it plays out I guess? If we get at solid display, or at least the points, things can still turn to the good. That also since we still have things to play for.

A new shambles, and a loss against Leicester now, and it may very well turn into toxic
