nice one mate .. stop it..nonsensical
you do appear to be easily confused from what i have read of your contributions to mankind on here.. but carry on. It's insightful stuff.
The difference is simple, Villas line up in CL games is almost exactly the same as Prem games.
Our line up in the EL is heavily rotated to our Prem starting 11 - for a start we Moore, Lankshear, Bergvall, Dragusin and Davies - none of whom are genuine starting players in the league for us. I’m sure Odobert would have had more minutes also
It’s secret but happy to answer any specific enquiries you might haveWhere have you found the info on wages to turnover for all the clubs? I’d be keen to see the figures if you have a link please.
Are you alright? Where have I said anything of the sort?You can't be serious?
I thought you were a reasonable fan.
I didn't think there was anyone left, even the most diehard Levy fans that used the fear of things getting worse as an argument for keeping them around.
Aside from not sure what the relevance is exactly. It'd cost me an airfare from the other side of the world for starters.Are you going tonight? How much was your ticket? Same question for Sunday?
When did we play Besiktas, must have missed that one.This is false
If I recall the only time we've really 'heavily rotated' is against Ferenchvaros, Besiktas we played with 5/6 starters - the rest have been pretty much almost all first 11.
Don’t startle and confuse him with facts - we know he can’t deal with them
When did we play Besiktas, must have missed that one.
Qarabag, Ferencvaros, AZ all had Moore and Bergvall starting. Ferencvaros also had Lankshear starting.
I don’t mind you disagreeing, but please provide some evidence - so far you’ve provided none. Our starting line ups have been heavily rotated for Europe
Also this 'we pay the highest prices blah blah' is such a forced argument because it only speaks from the match goers perspective, the vast vast majority of Tottenham fans don't go to the stadium.
Spurs fans moan too much, I think it's a fashionable trend amongst self entitled football fans these days on social media and our fanbase are just as guilty as anyone. I know everything is relative and we've had an up and down few seasons but fuck me some of the whining is embarrassing.
It’s relevant - it’s easy to say we are in the top 6 alls good but it doesn’t factor in our history (50’s to 80’s of being London biggest club), nor the cost and effort of expecting more than that (based on ridiculous ticket orices). Relevant context you are missingAre you alright? Where have I said anything of the sort?
I've said a change of ownership won't be the path to utopia, and also said ENIC should have been ousted after Super League.
Never mentioned things getting worse, or wanted ENIC to stay.
I think we'll be the same as we are with new owners. A 4th to 7th club.

So no.
I could argue you're missing context that when the first division changed to the EPL and money exploded from there we missed the boat. We were a club that through out the 90s was not particularly well run and other clubs got the march on us and we've never recovered that lost ground.It’s relevant - it’s easy to say we are in the top 6 alls good but it doesn’t factor in our history (50’s to 80’s of being London biggest club), nor the cost and effort of expecting more than that (based on ridiculous ticket orices).

So can we just guess??List of things Ange isn't interested in:
- Rashford,
- Set pieces,
- Defending,
- Abuse from Spurs fans,
- Whether people like him or not.....
Feel free to continue the list.![]()
Think your incorrect here Shady. When we had a full strength squad, we were rotating heavily. All of Gray, Dragusin, Davies, Bergval, Werner, Richarlison and Moore started games and none of them would be regarded as first team. Unforunately the squad has been so decimated with injuries that we've only been able to make 2/3 changes for last 2 games but first 3 games, we definitely made atleast 5 in each game.This is false

You can't be certain that new ownership won't yield a positive change because you don't know who any potential new owner will be.Are you alright? Where have I said anything of the sort?

If so
- ladyboys
- the slimfast diet
- haute couture fashion
- words that start with the letter Q.
Where have I said anything remotely close to something that's certain?You can't be certain that new ownership won't yield a positive change because you don't know who any potential new owner will be.
That itself is a certainty. You can't be certain.
What is certain is that nothing will change now, not with these leeches.

I have also not said not to change ownership.
I just don't believe ownership is what's stopping us becoming a title chasing club and that the likelihood is the status quo remains similar just a different name on the chairman's door.
