Levy has responded to your post.

It goes, “… our accountants say everything is alright, so, you clearly don’t know your knock ons from your leg-breaks”.

We all know his faults re:not investing in squad enough, profit before glory etc.

But at least to me - still keeping Ange here is a new level of Levy incompetence. Thought after 20 years he has some minimal football sense, but seems he just plays some mobile games during the match.

I could Levy with his philosophy of doing business/transfers, but hard to accept that he is so deluded he still keeps that Aussie charlatan.

I think one of the problems with Levy/ENIC is that you could argue they did a decent job up to about 5 years ago on the pitch. Levy's main failings were not spending when he should do but he personally doesn't have much to spend.

But he actually looks completely past it - as almost anyone who runs an organisation for 25 years does - and I don't think he knows what to do. He's driven us so deep in the Ange mess looking for a shortcut miracle that he can't get a McKenna or Iraola to come now and the likes of Tuchel, Potter and dare I say it, Moyes are off the table.

I assume that Levy's plan recently after he finished his stadium magnum opus was to hand over football operations to Paratici so that he himself could focus on things like the hotel and such.

But then Fabio got suspended from football and he had to step in again and bring in people like Munn.

I genuinelly believe that once Fabio's ban is over in October he is going to step back into some form of role in running the football operation.

What that means for Munn remains to be seen.

Really, we were 50 million euros behind Liverpool, don't see how we could overtake them , no CL football last season means around 60 million pound missing in revenue and we were miles behind the six in front of Liverpool so who has dropped.

Levy has said for a long time that non-football income such as Beyonce concerts, F1-go cart, American football etc., and having fans stay in the stadium longer (spending more money of food and drinks) will generate consistently high revenues without relying on CL football (which is not a guarantee and out of your own hands).

Even with extra events I don't see how we could move up the money table, Liverpool and Woolwich finished above us in the PL so would earn extra prize money there, Woolwich got to the quarters in CL and Liverpool got to the quarters in EL so both would have earnt decent prize money from those.
We might have increased commercial revenue from sponsors etc but enough to cover £60 million missing from Euro football I doubt it, have to wait and see what Deloitte have as they will have received all the accounting figures from clubs in Europe.
 
You can imagine when Levy hired Postecoglou he uttered the famous last words, "This will get the fans off my back." He was giving fans attacking football and, in the "Big Ange" personality, a sideshow. I think, to use an American expression, he got snookered. Postecoglou may have convinced him football was a video game and he had the cheat code.
