Our fans formed a phalanx to defend Levy after this.
Ashamed to say I was one of them. I was livid at him for doing this publicly. Still think he could easily have done it in private, but maybe he even did. Looking back now though I can't see it would have had any effect whatsoever.

I was always ambivalent towards ENIC / Levy's operating methods, and trusted him when he told us that the new stadium would allow us to compete on a like for like footing with our peers. I see those peers as The Goons, Liverpool and United. Proper football clubs run on money garnered from footballing roots. OK you now see official mattress partners and whatnot, but these companies give their money because they want the publicity reach that the clubs can offer. And those clubs I mention have built their reputation somewhat organically. That's what we should be doing now, but Levy has bypassed the needing to build his brand through on field success. Very well done to him. But it leaves us fans feeling very resentful.

My tether's end was reached last season when it became obvious that even with the stadium in full uninterrupted operation that we aren't interested in building on field success. This scenario is obviously being reinforced and iron clad at the moment with his inaction to do anything to help the situation we find ourselves in.

I'm not as vocal as many on here simply because I think it's a waste of emotional energy. He holds ALL the cards. There is nothing to be done except to ride it out, and hope we stumble across more periods like 14-19 when it was all good fun, sweetness and light. That, as far as I can see is the life of a Spurs fan for the forseeable future, until someone puts £3.5-4 billion on the table.
 
There definitely doesn't seem to be any football vision on going. Which falls at Munn's feet given the official structure.

Lange and Ange must be working uphill towards Munn.

So was I. I admit it. I was pissed off with Conte because I just don't (didn't?) think you should drag your employer so publically.

I was adamant he was just gunning for the payoff. Maybe he was.

But as time has passed my opinion on the meltdown has softened somewhat. I still don't think that it's the proper way for a manager of Tottenham Hotspur should behave and I still think he was aiming for the payoff but there's so much truth in what he was saying and I think he really was exasperated by this point. We were expecting him, and Jose, to compete with Matt Doherty, Davinson Sanchez and Emerson Royal.

20 years and nothing, Tottenham's story is this.

Nothing has changed and it's time to stop pretend it will ever change.
 
Well that's fucking depressing.

Is it ok to wish death on the entire fucking board yet.

Someone mentioned on Twitter that the Stones gigs will generate a lot of revenue, these type of things appear to be priorities . The club has been used & the fans hoodwinked into the myth of the stadium taking us to the next level . It’s taken us to the next level of being an entertainment complex , yup more ££ has been put into the club but there is very little to no plan , no ambition to get it right .
 
Levy has so many faults but the one that grates on me the most is a complete lack of communication with the fans. Now would be a good time to come out and let's us know what the fuck is going on and what he's doing to sort it out. His silence irritates the fuck out of me because it just gives the impression he doesn't give a flying fuck.
True but the gurning cunt weasel saying, “we’ve got our Tottenham back” grips my fucking shit as well.
