Milesy is everything that is wrong with the club. Bought out to do the puff piece, you just have to look at the disdain all our players have for him.
i watched all his interviews yesterday because i'm a sick person and he led every one of them with some variation of 'funny'. fucking infuriating. he's clearly in the pr phase and doesn't give a shit about results anymore.
and Thick Dundee cant see it or doesn't want to see it
"It's never Ange that's the problem" - the article.The end looms for the former Celtic boss, the wrong man at the wrong club.
On the day the media first announced that Spurs were interested in Ange Postecoglou, I expressed my absolute disbelief that he would even contemplate that club. His agent was a busy man during that…
It's frustration beyond belief - I just wanna shake some sense into Levy - How can he:
Hopefully he ages 10 years overnight now.
Actually he's only 16 but has progeria.
I was against the appointment then slowly swayed after the appointment to then the at the end of 10 games thinking he was something special not realising it was just very good PR. Then we played Chelsea this season at home and gave up a two goal lead with little to no fight. Then everything after the match was about Romero getting injured.

"That list includes managers like Pochettino, Mourinho, and Conte—guys who had won league titles in top countries. All of them believed they could turn Spurs around. Not one of them was equal to the task.
Because some clubs you just can’t do anything with. Whether that’s down to ownership, bad leadership from executives, or a baked-in culture that makes progress impossible, it’s real. Culture can be changed. Leadership can be replaced. But if those things are as deeply ingrained as they are at Spurs, there’s little light at the end of the tunnel. It can be very difficult—if not impossible—to turn things around in the short to medium term.
And Spurs is one of those clubs. It has both leadership issues and cultural rot. Everyone knows about the chairman. But the cultural rot might be even worse. There are people in and around that dressing room who’ve been there a long time, and they’ve seen managers come and go and be utterly destroyed. One more manager coming and going? So what? It means nothing to them.
Even the new signings can’t be relied on to dig you out of a hole or battle hard when the going gets tough. What do they care? Spurs have become so used to failure that nobody goes there to win trophies. The attractions for any player signing for Spurs include the money, the lifestyle, the London location and playing in the Premier League. None of them go to Spurs because they have a winning mentality. It’s not that kind of club.
Yet they’re followed by a support with a wildly overblown sense of where the club should be."
it may be an Ange puff piece article from a Celtic fan but he may be right about that
Yup, it's a bit of a joke at this point. Ange had a fairy-tale start and had the media eating out the palm of his hand for roughly the first six months he was in charge.
