Manager Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

A good test for this madness for anyone with young children:

Try explaining to a child that the club is about to fire the guy who delivered our first European trophy in over forty years and our first meaningful trophy since 1991. Tell them it's to do with league performance and hamstrings and shit like that. Go on.

Then listen to how fucken unhinged you sound
Not as unhinged as someone coming up with that daft analogy!

:dembelelol:
 
Yeah all the teenage Spurs kids from our group (most of whom were at the ground for the final) are absolutely incensed at the "rumours" he's gone.

I've tried to explain about the league position but they just saw us hold up a European trophy - you can see why they are confused.

Maybe Harry Vaginola Harry Vaginola can explain to them that they are all "cultists" while he's not at all an weirdo incel in his mums basement
lol you've been posting for 10 hours straight today. i stopped counting around 40 posts
 
Historically, Levy has sacked managers WAY before they've led the team to a dismal 17th (a deserved 17th, not an unlucky 17th). He's always seemed desperate to maintain a top 4 position.If he doesn't sack Postecoglou, my money's on Levy having being taken over by aliens from another planet.

But : We’re not in Kansas anymore:

Top 4 brings an entry ticket to the Champions League; that’s why Daniel (who rightly recognises the inequitable financial benefits for a team IN the Champions League, not just prize money and TV revenue but also the sponsorship tie-ins etc ) values it so highly.

For the first time in his stewardship of our Club ; a manager has given him an entry ticket to the Champions League AND broken a 17 / 41 year hoo-doo . The support is rightly ecstatic.

( Despite our dismal showings in the EPL ) .

Trust me ; Levy’s on the horns of a dilemma , and with good reason.

That’s a new one to add to the list of reasons he should stay so far we have

1) vibes
2) players will all terminate their contracts if he leaves
3) can’t explain it to your young child
 
There are many (a vocal minority) just like Jaynola who have done nothing but piss on the the trophy since we won it.

I'm glad to see you don't agree. On that basis I withdraw my accusation that you are part of that group.

I've always said I have no problems with wanting Ange out. I've always been agnostic myself. I just can't stand any cunt trying to piss on that trophy and what it means.
I suspect some might be doing a bit too much in trying to assert that it doesn't mean he should stay.

They're right, of course, but if they are slagging the actual quality of the cup itself, in the process, then I'd say they are doing it in the wrong way.

It's a big trophy.
 
Fans want to see progress. By winning the EL this year they don't get to play in it next year to try and win it again. Spurs aren't going to win the CL, so they're putting all their eggs in the fa cup (lost to Villa in the 4th round) and the league cup (embarrassed at anfield in the semis), so you're hoping to win one of two trophies while tanking in the league every week again.

I don't have anything against Ange and I'm delighted he can ran the whole winning in his second season down everybody's throats, but bigger picture the huge red flags are there and have been for some time.

Will the next manager win anything? Maybe not, but an improved league performance could see a Europa/conference league place again, a chance to be that bigger fish and win something rather than the awful football served up in the league this past 12-18 months and hoping you play nobody good until the final where you may squeak it.
 
Do you know many children running multimillion pound football teams?!

No. But then that has nothing at all to do with what SausageVince SausageVince posited - which is literally being played out on my spurs chat right now as all the teenagers are starting to realise Ange is almost certainly going and can't understand it.

Like I said - do you know actual real people?
 
We won the Europa League. Fantastic! Ange in.

We finished 17th. Fucking disgraceful! Ange out.

That, in effect, is the sum total of this entire thread...4352 pages and counting...Jesus wept!
 
I haven't seen anyone who's shat on the EL trophy.

What are you rambling about??
they're fucking liars and the fact that they have to exaggerate and make shit up says it all. i wept at the whistle and partied for 3 days. i'll never forget it and i feel differently about winning things now than i did before. however, it was still a final between two teams in the basement of their league who played hobbits on the way to the final in a diminished competition that's only going to look shittier and shittier with each passing year. we're fortunate to get it in the first year of the new format as it will be worth less and less every year.

fuck off cultists. you won't be missed. talk about wanting my tottenham back. i've never experienced a group of fellow supporters turn their guns inward like this crew in my life. it's a sickness. we used to just talk about football
 
dude, i'll say it again, if you think everyone else is the asshole, you're the asshole. why don't you take a break from slagging us all off. you said it already, he's gone. why not bow out gracefully? if he bounces to a big league and wins a big trophy while we bottom out again you can come pound your chest and swing your cock around but this is just getting pathetic. i'm enjoying the meltdown but even i have my limits. it's just sad now and you're making us all look bad by association. log off and go show the world how perfect your support is.

Both Poch and Harry had bad cup exits, but then they also were actually going full throttle in the league week to week and not throwing everything at one of the cups. That's what happens when you're not dedicating all your energy to that one competition.

We went out to Fulham early in Ange's first season in a cup, because we were focused on the league.

Ange's cup run in the Europa had so much to do with it becoming our everything. People need to understand this. It wasn't genius coaching or a winning mentality. The CL also became our everything in that final season under Poch, we just weren't lucky enough to play a really shite side in the final. Cup football is a terrible way to judge managers.

Re “ Cup football is a terrible way to judge managers “ .

Ancelotti has to date won 22 Cups but only 6 League ( including 2 with PSG and Bayern ) .

Cups ( especially Cups in European / World Football) aren’t to be taken for granted; they take some winning.

Also Bill Nic won us seven (7) cups but only one League title ; how would you judge him .

Yeah mate his specialism is the biggest cup in European football which is a little bit different - the champions league stands alone above all other cups.

And his sides aren’t bad in the league either. If he finished 17th at Madrid and won the CL he would be sacked too.

Nice melt.

Are the "cultists" in the room with you right now? Can you show us on the doll where they touched you?

Lol 4 days in Spain, 2 in Bilbao, back for parade and final game on the weekend. Never met anyone who ranted about "cultists". Not one. WTF is wrong is you? :roflmao:
