But I still would like to see him with a fit squad and our attackers back, absolutely.
That would be next season…

I'm not so sure. The club is still just as big with the same potential even if we get relegated. The fanbase remains.
In some ways, it makes us more attractive to potential suitors.
The team would need less initial investment to come back up.
I think a sleeping giant is more tempting than one at the peak of its power.

the annual revenue would tumble. It must be a tenth of what it is in the championship.

We've seen teams "too big" for the championship disappear. Elland Road was massive, and I don't want to stray into the "doing a leeds" meme, but they always had excellent support and really struggled (still do)
 
And by inference you support this.

2 Wins in 16 games. Thank goodness his first few games weren’t as bad…
If he gets sacked, he gets sacked.

If he stays, he stays.

The former, we move on.

The latter, we won't go down and let's see how far we can go in the CL (where he's taken us to 4th (which is objectively impressive with the injuries we've had, but people refuse to factor it in).

I can take it either way, as things stand.

I'm not wed to Frank.

It's not that deep.

But I still would like to see him with a fit squad and our attackers back, absolutely.

So glad all those in the clique on here were absolutely 100% right about sacking the only footballing person at the club last season...

So many of those who were talking Frank up have now retrospectively gone back to delete their early ridiculous assumptions about him being a "way better coach" etc etc

Hysterical how fragile the egos of many on here really are.

You know who you are. ( If you don't, check your other tabs and it likely has cuck/simp related fetishes preloaded)

I see you joined a couple of days ago.
Are you his mum?
Not his mum, just someone who actually understands elite coaching when they see it.
If you can't see that Thomas Frank is a world-class tactician after what he just did in the Champions League, then you’re just not watching the game properly. He’s taken a squad decimated by injuries and still finished 4th in the league phase—above PSG and Real Madrid. That’s not luck, that’s tactical genius.
The man has us competing on the highest highest levels already in Europe. Once he gets the full squad back, we’ll be doing the exact same in the league and charging straight into that top four spot. Honestly, we are lucky to have a manager of his calibre. In a few years, when he’s winning the biggest trophies in the game, half of you lot will be pretending you supported him all along.
I'll be back to remind you of this when we're lifting silverware

Someone get this framed.
 
These were new players to bed in.

Kudus was the only stable, consistent player out the blocks.

Kolo had a dead leg forever and didn't play and Xavi started shit and was doing a Wirtz.

Again, if he'd have had Solanke, Maddison and Kulu (all established attacking players), we'd have been fine.

Yes, I supported him from the off and big-upped his wins and was positive.

Nail me to a fucking cross for being a spurs fan supporting a new manager.

And I don't give a shit what people are "annoyed" with.

Inbreds.
You didn't really support him, like me you gave him a chance as after 9 games it was too early to say anything one way or another. As said back then, it was too soon to say one way or another, and it will take years to sort the mess out at the club. Levy since not investing in three windows before CL final, has completely fucked us, everything he has said, has been a lie, just like new stadium = more money for player wages and better players. Lies.

And once again we entered a season with an unbalanced mess or Frankenstein squad that had no real functioning left hand side. Not to mention, loaning the likes of Devine out, and not giving him in chance, in a team with very few fit AM's and a full blown injury crisis.

Nobody knew how it was going to pan out, anyone who says they did, is just lying to themselves, regarding Frank. Even then, if he had done well, it would still have taken 2/3 years to really undo most of the damage down over the years since that CL final.

Even now it's not that easy to say sack Frank, as it is not just him, it's also most of his background staff he brought with him from Brentford, what is going to happen if he goes? Train the players, the only thing I can think of is that already have someone lined up for the Summer, after the WC.

Everyone saying look at Carrick? Really, the guy has an almost full fit squad, and the previous manager was hated by the players, as he ostracised half the team. Coming in and playing players in their best positions isn't rocket science, he has had to do very little comparatively. And the biased as fuck commentators are wanking him off like he is the second coming.

I am not impressed one bit by Carrick, as ManU are were never in 10% of the mess we are in.

Carrick would simply never have had that luxury at Tottenham, as we are a clusterfuck of a mess. Bringing in a LW, wouldn't have done much either, because we have severe rot at the club regarding players, players like Romero, who mouth of one minute, and completely fuck us in the next game, like he has so many times already this season. And no amounts of Carrick's will ever address this, unless we actually pull the trigger on players like Romero, and so many others that should never have been allowed to stay at the club, but we kept them coz Levy's cheap option, coz he thought he knew best.

There is also no one at Spurs to take over at the club as an interim manager. Mason failed after he left at WBA, and the other guy left. The new guy, has been at the club for like 2/3 weeks, so completely out of his depth. We literally have to limp until we get a new manager.

I am not happy with Frank, he has become his own worst enemy, and I hope that it will sorted come the summer, as long as we don't go down.

Fans should never feel bad for giving people a chance, unlike the all asshole that slagged Souza off for the last couple of weeks before he's actually kicked a ball, simply becaue we didn't spunk a £100 million on a player, then he puts in a good performance considering the circumstances, and things actually look hopeful for him. Will he turn out to be great player for us? Who knows, but he 100% isn't if fans keep acting like cunts to him.

If it wasn't for that grade A cunt liability today, Romero, we might have got something today. Who knows, Romero never gave us a chance.

But you are right, a lot of thing in your post, peoples memories are short, when they have an agenda to push.

Nobody has patience anymore, everyone expects instant results, they rewrite history to push naratives, and worst thing of all, they never put anything into context, and they think everything is black and white, and it really just isn't.
