Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I always felt like Sugar did want to do well and, at the same time, make a killing on the way. He saw the Sky deal, he saw the opportunity for an Amstrad box in every home to watch it and his beady little eyes lit up.
What he found was that Man United bullied everyone, players weren't at all loyal and it cost more than he thought to compete. He lost interest and fucked off as we weren't making him money.

Unfortunately ENIC and Levy are making a killing and will always make a killing. The team don't matter anymore. It's just 19+ of 50 events they host a year now.
Imagine how furious they were at having to play Tamworth and Villa away in the FA Cup. He'll/they'll be more pissed at going out to Villa without a single home FAC fixture than the actual result.



Intrinsically linked.



Levy's sphincter is probably about 0.33mm wide at the moment thinking about spending money on AngeLOSS.



Teams don't want to sell their best players mid season. Contracts usually run mid-year to mid-year, financial accounting April- April so maybe teams blow their ability to spend in the summer.

Oh also, Levy.
I don't buy that at all, a more successful team is a more profitable one for them.

The super wealthy are super wealthy because they always want more, so there's no way I could envisage Levy ad Lewis sitting back and thinking "well we've got this Beyonce money so nevermind the football money we're missing out on by sitting 15th in the League...".

I don't disagree that they're doing a poor job of it right now, I'm just more inclined to believe it's down to ineptitude rather than a conscious decision.
 
Tbh I’d rather not bother with shite like Gedson\ Danjuma. Or any average workman style players. If you manage your squad properly you shouldn’t need to do that anyway. We constantly leave ourselves short in various areas though and haven’t been producing good enough HG players ourselves to cover gaps.

I’d wait until the summer unless you can get players that have long term use now.
Spot on. Dont want any temporary signings. Either buy proper player or run the show with what we have right now.

There is a big chance we won't be in Europe next season. Stop gap players we potentially buy now will for sure become deadwood next season. And i dont believe they can help US that much this season.

And luckilly, when we will be for sure back in Europe in season 2026/2027 - Gray and Bergvall will be on List B. With projection of become CT following season if i'm not wrong. This should let us resolve our CT issues for a long time (Bergvall, Gray, Mickey Moore, 3rd goalie) and let us buy more overseas players
 
like to think so, it is so baffling that hes still here destroying the club.

levy must be getting snubbed! its the only thing that makes sense.

Something is awry.

Postecoglou,based solely on results should have been sacked. No can reasonably contest that,which is entirely separate to whatever level of faith, anyone has in the manager.

To keep him in the role, it demands evidence-based proof of competence. There is no such evidence.

To allow the situation to continue, without comment, to allow the team to lose game after game, and to know your team's fans are growing more and more incensed is bloody stupid.

So it's either we have no money to spend, are working like demons under the radar or Levy is content at committing Hara Kiri.

Those 3 will be under 21, no need to name them. Club trained is a bit overrated. We have struggled this season because Lucas, Archie and Odobert had to be classed as foreign because not at the club for 2 yrs.
 
I can get not signing players when the fees are inflated in January but you should only take this course when you’re safe in the league and can revisit things ahead of/during the summer window.

The major issue we have is by sticking with Ange we’re under an ever increasing threat of being pulled into a relegation dog fight. In addition to this we’re still in Europe but to progress we need to bring new players in this window. By delaying boosting the squad to the summer we’ll most likely have no European football next season. This adds a further concern that without European football we won’t need a bigger squad. Everything looks and is bleak for the present and what looks like the future unless we bring decent players in now, and/or replace Ange and/or have a serious upturn in fortune and results and secure European football for next season.

There's a chance we'll be in the Championship next season!

Any more injuries and we'll be completely fucked.
