ENIC are Sugar on steroids.
They worked alongside / for Sugar, as shareholders, from 2001 -2007 when Sugar sold them his remaining stake.
The autocratic and miserly approach to wages, (apart from the Chairman's) has been in place since Sugar arrived in 91.
Levy and Sugar are two cheeks of the same arsehole.
Their shit stinks too.
Note that 24-25 (to date) is the first season ever where top flight gates average 40k+
True. But levy is 25 years in & Chelsea’s owners are new but still finishing above us this year & got in to a cup final last year. So even a mess of owners do better then levy overall. So I’d prefer levy to go. I’d say we are a shambles & unstable this season with levy. He’s shit. I think a clean break will be better than a guy where you are impressed if we finish within 20 points of Woolwich.
They really think we can’t do better than levy! Crazy! A cup every 25 years & finishing miles behind Woolwich. New manager most years . Bad recruitment & poor signings. New owners would struggle to mess up as much as him .
Levy was the leader of the pack when it came to being the best of the rest; from 05 - 19.
He's become yesterday's man with his business model and the people at Brentford, Bournemouth and Brighton are ripping the miser a new one these days. Villa and Newcastle have also caught up.
Lewis had been exposed in many ways for what a corrupt greedy horrible human he is. Yet still some try to carry on the moral owners & doing things the right way argument. That all got torn about ages ago. The last few who won’t let it go & admit it.
Lewis was born in Bow.
I reckon he's West Ham and the whole thing is revenge for Peters and Paul Allen.
Well if he doesn’t care. Hopefully he will inform security they don’t need to try to get protesters to take down banners again!
The levy lovers seem to be desperate for us to not win stuff & have low expectations. They hate ambition & want us to be grateful for top 4 trophy every 3 or 4 years.
That’s my feelings too. He just seems very outdated & old school. Gone very stale. The game has passed him by. Similar to when everyone caught up to wenger & he went from being at the forefront on football philosophy & methods to old hat.
Stick all the IN voters on Ignore.
They’d be taken on loan on the 13th of Feb ; with an option to buy or return 3 days later. Depending on how impressed Mrs Levy was with them .
It’s how he rolls . Every time.
To loop back to yesterday's Qatar talks. Apparently they/QSI are looking to dislodge themselves from PSG since Al-Khelaifi has gotten in hot water in France, being accused of abuse of power from his position in French football.
If that is more than empty threats it could explain the links. They start selling their ownership in PSG, and use "private" investors to start investing in another club in Europe instead.

Said it on here previously - QSI are actively trying to offload PSG, as their need to be involved with them finished after the World Cup in Qatar. Not going to be easy to do, but if they manage it, I’d be stunned if they didn’t buy us.
Not at all. Sugar didn't understand, foresee, or have the acumen to capitalise on the globalization of football. If Sugar had maintained control Tottenham would be West Ham at best and Birmingham at worst.
ENIC's problem is that Levy has struggled to make the right moves at the right times on the football side of the business in the past decade when the difficulty ramped up as the club tried to take the final step from competitive EL/Bottom CL spot to winning trophies.
Outside of that, they've been extremely successful, turned Spurs into the 9th richest club on the planet with the best stadium and training facilities.
The idea that ENIC and Sugar have anything in common other than a business transaction 2 decades ago is ludicrous.
Some of the anti-ENIC posts on this forum are wild. Classic case of internet overexaggeration. They certainly aren't the best owners, but they're so far out front of Sugar he doesn't know they're in the race.
Levy has also distanced himself from al-khelaifa by leaving the ECA Board on the quiet. He is head of that and previously appointed levy to the board.
Boris Johnson tried to get them to buy us and help with the regeneration of Tottenham when he was mayor. They’ve been previously active in the capital’s property market buying up trophy assets. I suspect now we have a £2bn stadium to show off we are more attractive than 15 years or so ago. They’d do for me because they’d probably continue to invest in the area around the stadium.
