I wonder if the majority stake in the club being in trust is affecting their ability to do the usual panic arse covering. If the real owners won’t allow money to go out on sackings and player cost because they are intent on selling, Levy has no way out of the mess he created. Usually by now something has been done. This time. Nada. Has to be a money issue.

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Seeing a few videos of the Levy Out chants tonight. They are louder than before, no doubt, but as people pan round with their camera, it’s a tiny number of people singing. Maybe just showing the wrong sections? But a lot of glum, apathetic faces are all I’m seeing.
All I have to say is... There used to be a football club over there
The singing was definitely more obvious on the TV coverage today, as we're banners etc.
The fact they tried to confiscate the banners means more creativity probably required going forward.
My post was more in surprise that I couldn’t see more people singing as it sounded loud. But yes, the banner is getting coverage, so well played to whoever came up with that.
Jesus christ a fucking pizza company is bagging on us!
Everyone here should have bet everything on Vardy to score versus us- safest fucking money of all time!
Hard to believe he was popular at school he is so creepy , this will have given him a skin like a rhino . He is emotionally dispositioned to being loathed now so it has no effect . 17 years including university of having your head metaphorically flushed down the crapper has left him like he is .
I have no medical training and am not a psychiatrist, the main reason for saying the above is I can’t be the only one on here who would like to actually physically flush him and Lewis down the toilet. They have been a shit stain on this club for 25 years in my view. Post Poch they have been dysentery
I thought the same. Surprising really.
No absolutely not , we’d have heard whispers of it if it were the case . This is lack of planning , reluctance to spend & stupidity
got to say "Sorry folks, "
thought this was coming from a good ITK source

I wish this guy Claude would fuck off
THFC. Never forget the H mate. It’s what makes us who we are
Yeah I think it’s partly that. A couple of years ago I predicted this type of purgatory because of how the club is now held.
It is also worth remembering too Levy’s ownership of the club. He isn’t 100% certain to get a pay out if we are sold, so where’s his motivation to do that?
The key words in the following is potential beneficiary. Legally that doesn’t mean he would get anything on a sale, it’s up to the trustees of that trust to decide if he should get it. Going to blow a few brains that!
Daniel Levy and certain members of his family are potential beneficiaries of discretionary trusts which ultimately owns 29.41% of the share capital of ENICIL”.
I agree its down to those that attend games, its easy for me to say this as I don't go, but its still my club
But the season ticket holders (not the tourist) are the one who can do this boycott 2 home games, don't sell your ticket have about 30,000 empty seats maybe that will bring Levy back to running a football team, Maybe it won't, but doing what you are doing now hasn't worked
who owns these discretionary trusts ? is it Levy ?
Something must be seriously wrong to explain the absurdity of the last few weeks.
I'd have thought it would be better to return five-ten minutes late for the second half, as everyone is (not) doing something at the same time rather than the inevitable drip-drip of leaving your seat early.
Plus you have 15 minutes for people to try to encourage those staying in their seats to join in.
It happened at Valencia some years back, the TV couldn't ignore the fact that one end was entirely empty.
As a bonus you'll miss the comedy defending that turns a 1-0 lead into a 1-2 deficit just after the restart.
It would be the Joe Lewis trust surely? Since Levy is a potential recepient.
Ownership is probably the wrong word, the shares in ENIC are sat in a trust and stays like that up until the point the assets in the trust are distributed.
So no, Levy doesn’t own anything legally speaking, he’s a potential beneficiary, he has no power to decide where the money goes at that point of distribution. That’s not to say he won’t get it then of course. It might be all set up for that to happen, which is entirely possible.
The key moment in time for us, is when Lewis dies, but even then it won’t be instantaneous. We will have to wait and see who the shares are passed to.
It’s a shit situation to be in, but very them to put us in it.
