When was the last time this club went out and bought an elite player , I'm not talking about players that become elite once they got here like Bale and Modric , I'm talking about an elite world class player . The ones I can think of are Klinsman and Van De Vaart . Van De Vaart was a last minute deadline day signing too . That's how far this club have fallen . We don't have good owners and this time around their cheap attitude is going to be their downfall .

Manager Ange Postecoglou

As much as I wanted Ange gone after the Man City match in his first season, he was just latest in a long line of different managers employed under ENIC who was not properly backed and supported.
A tale as old as their tenure
There is not one player in the current squad who makes the stadium come alive when they get on the ball.
We had poor teams in the past but always had that one player, from my era Hoddle, waddle, Gascogne, klinsmann, ginola, modric, bale, kane
Now?
Give it over
Gallagher, paulinha
If he'd got them, I doubt he would have had any idea what to do with them...
Guy was clueless...
I get that you want to support a fellow countryman but really...

. I didn’t actually vote for you, but delighted others took up the role in my stead. Every fucking post is you giving it the big “I told you so” about Ange, when there’s nothing to really be “told you so” about. He may well have us in a better position than this had he not been sacked. I believe this myself. He may also have been sacked within a month with no wins. Nobody knows.
What I think we all do collectively know is that we can do without someone coming in here straight after a defeat telling everyone they think they were correct about the last manager. It’s the behaviour of a total cunt. Judging by your posts since release, you’ve not learned your lesson. Maybe you will after your next binning, because it will happen again.
In short, stop being a cunt.

Ohh common Jack Russel!! He made Johnson our top scorer and actually found a system that made him effective!!
Look at his start under Glasner - a coach half of you weiners hail as some sort of mastermind!
The man understood what Tottenham is meant to be. Unfortunately the only CLUELESS one's are the gimps who sacked him and the cucks on here chasing likes, joining pile-ons because they aren't capable of understanding the nuances of a situation!! (Or having their own real opinion)
Ange was PURE aura! The quotes, the style of play, the ACTUALLY WINNING A BLOODY TROPHY.
The guy was helping to bring back a long lost identity to our once great football club and people like you would rather just dampen it?
Without doubt, beyond any realm of it, can anyone now even try arguing that sacking Ange in that moment was the right decision - truly know that if you believe this you're a complete and UTTER moron.

Now I’ve voted for you.
I'll make this as brief as you deserve.
1. That Ange routinely contradicted himself depending on whatever suited his agenda at any time does not work in his favour, for any sane person anyway.
2. Forest were doing better, though not great, before his arrival, and immediately went back to doing better, though not great, once he was gone.
He was such a disaster here that so far no-one has been able to undo two years of absolute nonsense from him on every level.
Forest only had 5 weeks of his shit and so was an easier repair.
Now fuck off you idiot.

Also, I'm sorry you feel offended and the need to express yourself in such a lengthy message but I do not agree with yourself at all.
I was given endless abuse, as I have this season, as well as so much ridicule for my posts throughout last season when I was posting my opinion on Ange. I have never once took it personally - but imo am fully in my right to post about him now and point to general perceptions changing.
I have, before Ange, tried to highlight our own fanbase as becoming a problem and this is just the most recent example of it - I genuinely want people to do better and realise the complexities of the issues we face at this club.
When you're being tagged (highlighted) in joke, and jest, which is absolutely how I see it, then unfortunately people can deal with me posting indirectly this season around Ange. Many of which, may I add, have sparked some real good debates - not all negative.
It's all online space - stop getting butthurt over digital pixels popping up on your screen.
Don’t like to break this to you, but your words are also just pixels on a screen.Bro it's a emoticon, it's really not that deep.

And I do sympathise with you regarding last season. I was one of the last to hang on to Ange and took dogs abuse for it on here. Sometimes I bite back, sometimes I shrug.
What I don’t do is wait a few seconds after we get beaten again and give it the old “I told you so”. We are in this together and I know I can do without you raising this thread from the dead at every full time whistle. I’m obviously not alone.
As I said, I’ve voted for you this time. Maybe the first time I’ve publicly said I’ve voted for someone. Hopefully it will encourage others to do the same and hopefully you’ll eventually learnt to stop doing what you are doing.
Also my first whistle of any poster.
You were behind Ange longer than most anyone and though I thought it was mad you never behaved like this one
Ange will soon be 3 fucking managers ago... if he has got such bare feelings for Ange in his heart that's his business but if he gleefully posts his tripe in the minutes after a loss he is the fan of a man and not a club...
I wish to God some League One side would hire Ange so that poster would exit the scene here. He should fuck off to Wigan or wherever his heart's fancy ends up
I have never posted " I told you so " - it's interesting you take this from my posts. That would be petty and is obviously something you're used to considering your vast amount of time on here. This is a thread about Ange. I post about Ange - you're not the thought police and you certainly shouldn't be encouraging

and others to ban people just because you don't like their opinions?Where was this energy from you when I was being called a cunt? Where was it during all the nonsense in the past when many of the Ange in'ers were pushed off this space? Yet me posting tributes to Ange WHILST he's still relevant in our recent history seems to bother you so much? - is it because in the end you DID turn on your own opinion (probably because of user pressure), rather than holding strong?
Not that I need to validate my posts to you,

Or anyone on here, but my main want and drive for my time being spent here was to gauge in my own mind the general consensus around Ange as a manager for us. I still, even now ( just about ) believe undoubtedly that he is the best man for the job and deeply want the club and others to realise that he is exactly what we need right in this moment.
If people are going to show such flippant disrespect to a Tottenham legend, then they open themselves up to potentially receiving at least some level of banter / disrespect themselves wouldn't you agree?
I'm here not to gather friends or gain likes, but due to my love of this club. If you can't handle my posts then put me on ignore buddy.

FYI I used to post about Conte too but that was LONGGG before you ever arrived here.
Just to clue you up - people on here and broader Tottenham fans were also turning on him rather than the real culprits for why we never push on.
People just didn't learn their lesson when we had the chance to support a top manager again when Ange arrived.

You have a right to burn for Ange if you like but you don’t have a right to troll this site. That is a specific offense against the rules and other members don’t have to surrender to threads being wrecked by your pernicious trolling, even this one.I have never posted " I told you so " - it's interesting you take this from my posts.

Fuck off with that. You've tried to turn this into a “Come here to laugh at Spurs” thread and there isn’t one who wants to read it. Not the actions of a fan
This guy is for Ange what 90% of others are like with Poch. Both absolutely unbearable.
