Yeah you're right but good old Claude things Ange is solely the problem, I don't think anyone would agree with that, do you?

I've always been honest about my position that I think realistically Levy will be here for many years yet, and even after Lewis. I think Josh Levy eventually succeeds his father. I don't like it, but I'm also not wasting energy on it because it's something we can't control.

I wish they'd sell, but I'm resigned to the fact that it's unlikely.

Every manager ENIC has ever employed has done a better job, however, than Ange. Even with ENIC's poor governance, THFC can be much better than this. So the immediate problem, and immediately fixable problem, is Ange's employment.

Yes this is true but I don't think Claudey sees it this way

I seem to remember the general feeling was he needed 6 pts from Everton and Leicester or 4 minimum. To get 0 is something special and yet he's still here and still a few hold outs defending him. I dont know if its inertia or madness that has gripped the club and fanbase but i've never seen anything like it.

Its a complete mess. I want Levy out just like anybody else and he is responsible for this complete shitshow. Make no mistake about it. The bald cunt has outlived more than enough and its also pretty clear now that this stadium was never build for football and never intended to financially be able to compete with the others. It is an entertainment venue, not a footballing ground. Football fans are devastated after home losses, football fans create energy (like at WHL), football fans carry messages on banners and football fans stand up to support - this is not whatever this stadium is right now.

What he could atleast do is admit to another big fat mistake and sack himl tomorrow. We are not even a laughing stock right now because a home loss isnt even a crazy outlier, it has become routine. Ange is responsible for the performances and the injuries. For those of you who believe its just unlucky, stop trolling or get real.

Just seen this angle of it.

I’d suggest this was more a guy being asked by a steward not to lean over, the guy responded “fuck off” and that’s what Ange reacted to. Just by the angle the fuck off came from and the fact Ange looked in that direction. If he was reacting to “you’re taking us down”it was the world’s slowest reaction.

All a bit JFK Grassy Knoll, but my tuppenceworth anyway.

It's all on Levy now. Sack Ange, Scott Munn and the rest of his crew.

They've been completely exposed. Now even Levy can't have any doubts. Back to back losses against Everton and Leicester. These games were crucial and a true gift for Ange, given the pressure the club is under.

Failing to even take one point away from those games is just pathetic and Levy shouldn't accept it.

He can sack whoever he wants but the major fucking problem RIGHT NOW is that we are playing a second string team every 3 fucking days.

The first order of business is to replace all the goals we've lost after Solanke and BJ got crocked. The single most important thing in a relegation fight is GOALS. All our goal scorers are currently injured. Levy needs to focus the fuck on that right fucking now.

Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 Leicester City: Ange Postecoglou post-match interview

Tottenham Hotspur head coach Ange Postecoglou says he couldn't ask any more of his side after they "fell short" against Leicester City in a "disappointing" 2-1 home defeat.
www.bbc.co.uk

2 min onwards: Says the supporters are feeling bad and the atmosphere isn’t easy at the moment to play in and it wasn’t that long ago that we beat Liverpool here and it was a great night so you have to keep these things in context.

😂😂😂.

My god.

Mate, he shouldn’t be reacting at all, it’s yet again another example of insecurity aimed towards supporters.

Ange was likely reacting to the fact he thought someone told him he could “fuck off” I am absolutely not buying this nice guy trying to protect the steward angle.

This behaviour tracks with him, we have seen it numerous times now and if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck etc.

That's incredibly generous. To me it sounded like the guy was saying "He can fuck off" which is more likely to be about Ange than the steward anyway. In any case, I don't think that 'fuck off' is loud enough to be heard from under the tunnel, and at that point Ange will have already turned around. It will have been about the ''take us down" comment, because that's what it always is with him. It's not like he hasn't had altercations with hecklers before.

It’s a fucking embarrassing reaction.

Note that he *always* punches down - the fans, Timo Werner etc.

Textbook bullying prick.

Of course that's not my point. I'm talking bigger picture - any new manager is going to need GOALS to get us out of this mess. As well as tightening us up at the back.

We might be getting Romero and VDv back over next 10 days but they aren't going go to score the goals we need. The moment Solanke and BJ went down was absolute red light claxon shit -

Not doing himself any favours by reacting.

Nothing to gain from throwing a wobbly with an upset fan.
 
I have never seen a manager clash with his fans like this. There have been managers who have been verbally abused and they take it. Its part of the job when results are bad. What is to be gained from clashing with the fans? ou cant win a fight with the fans

Its League Cup or bust. literally, win the League Cup or its over.
 
Think now is the time to give him a new 5year contract.

Show the players and all around the club this is our guy long term.

He’s earned it, remember when he had our squad all fit those first 10 games last season.
