Every week he is just coming with more ridiculous excuses.

How about winning some fucking football games Ange? you utter fraud.

He knows he is gone, which is why all he can do is rattle off some bullshit excuses, because he can't say anything else. He is waiting for the sack so he can get his pay out. That's all it is at this stage, we are treading water and he is wheeled out after every game just to chat shit, whilst Levy sits up there using him as his human shield.

Absolutely ^^^

We are suffering the absolute highest level of corporate mismanagement imaginable (say that 3 times, quickly, if you can). Levy's laughing, Coglou's Coglouing and we're the ones who are paying for it. Literally. With money. And feelings.
 
Levy is to blame most in all of this, let's not forget that.

As an aside, in 1991 (when we won the FA Cup with Gazza and Lineker), we only won 1 out of our 15 leagues games after January, but no-one remembers that because we won the FA Cup.

Yep the cat is out of the bag now. Everyone knows that Spurs are not a serious club with ambition.

We can still get decent upcoming managers in the ilk of Iraola. It is a chance to come to a bigger club and a stepping stone to an elite club if things go well.

But the pretence of us trying to develop into a winning team has gone out the window now. Everyone knows what they are getting into.

Only reasons you'd come to Spurs is money, living in London and the facilities. Plus, there's no real pressure...everybody eventually fails here, winning is nice but not compulsory, defeat is acceptable.

Why would we have to pay him off if we sacked him right now? Surely his performance is gross negligence and has been for months. His position is untenable at the club.

Because that's how manager contracts are worded.

As long as he is fired solely on performances, he gets a pay out to void the remainder of the contract.

It is a different scenario if say he gets into a fight with a fan. Then he can be terminated with cause.

There's not a single manager in football that's going to sign a deal that says that they get no compensation if they get sacked.

I don't know, I imagine he spends his days thinking about his next press conference and thinks, "What can me and my bestie's in there talk about this week?"

He probably has a ginormous list of topics and probably expands on them.

Then there are team sermons that he has to give. He probably has tell the team about when his dad got lost going to find a free mattress when first moving to Aus.

I am pretty sure that Ange works very hard on everything but tactics and training. While managers like Frank are in before 6am and leave after 8-9pm and all they think about is how to improve on the previous game and fix the mistakes and then how to win the next game.
