Ange has done pretty well....I stopped reading right there ffs lol
Just realised this thread started on 31 May 2023. Will be a race in time to sack him before the two year anniversary!
If you allocate 3 points for a win, we picked up 45 points from 42 games, losing 21 when we were relegated bottom of the table in 1976/77, an average of 1.07 a game.
This season we are currently 38 points from 37 games, losing 21 at an average of 1.03 a game.
We are delivering a worst league performance than when we were last relegated 48 years ago. As has been said, the league table never lies and that is the barometer of any season. This is utterly shameful from all concerned, owners, managers and players. The buck always stops with the manager though and there can be no surviving this regardless of what happens in Bilbao.

Think we are well on track to record our worst league performance in 90 years - when we were relegated... a year after finishing third. That team lost 22 league games as well...
Juno Thank you for doing the maths I had knock down rows with stupid people on social media screaming. "HOW CAN WE BE WORSE WE'VE BEEN RELEGATED!!" Lol you would be amazed at the amount of people who can not understand what you have just explained. Now I'll simply cut and paste your home work. Thumbs
This thread should be closed.
Yeah that's hilarious. Half want him gone they will play for themselves. A few want to win it for Sonny apparently.
Ange has to walk, but who can we get to turn this shit show around with the present owners.
Marc Guehi. He should be our number one target above Eze even. He has a Ledley like calm with out the world level ability. He's perfect player to walk VDV to truly elite. Whatever he wants buy him.makd him captain.
If the league table never lies, surely 17th place is better than 22nd place?
Well, the Burley manager who got relegated just won the Bundesliga, so anything is possible.
Brighton weren't competing across 4 competitions. No Europe. They got knocked out of the efl cup early, but did make it to the QF of FA.
It's rather interesting, because guess who's medical team Spurs poached in the summer - Yep, Brighton's!!!!
We didn't get 5th last season because of a fluke. We did very well to deal with the loss of Kane, and then suffered injuries to key players. We had to play Royal/Davies at CB FFS, and had no fit striker for much of the season.
The club keeps leaving the squad woefully short of experienced players. Holjberg was an excellent experienced player to bring on late in games to organise the team - and for whatever reason he left for nothing, to be replaced by 2 X 18 years with zero experience at this level.
I don't disagree that this season has been a major fuck up across the board. Recruitment, coaching, medical, players, but the blaim doesn't lay with a single person - it's a combination of all of those things.
Can the existing staff learn from this and improve? Or do we need to throw everything away and start again? Changing 1 part of the jigsaw achieves nothing new.

I don’t think they could get anyone in during that time as their targets were concentrating on their current clubs & they knew Mason would not have pleased anyone . As time went on the possibility of reaching a final convinced them to stick with Ange
It’s your typical ENIC balls up
So remember the season Leicester finished 17th and then won the league the next season , maybe that was the plan all along for Ange!
They finished 14th!!
Don’t change history to suit your own Ange Man Crush agenda!!
He never said that. It's a made up quote. The closest was
“We’ve got a good squad, we’ve got players who can play in multiple positions, and we’ll need them all,”

Spurs are set for a quiet transfer deadline day.

Ange's biggest mistake was stubborn complacency. Throughout our persistent injury crisis he continued to double down on, "I'll do it my way", rather than battening down the hatches, making us hard to score against and building slowly from there, as & when possible. It's why we're currently 17th.
His cavalier, gung-ho, swashbuckling approach has failed in the league, but he stubbornly refused to adapt until it was way too late (and to be honest, it's still not working). By & large it has worked against weaker European teams, on a one-off basis, but it won't work against Utd on Wednesday.
Stubbornness has cost him his job. Fingers crossed it doesn't cost us a trophy.
