The lowering of standards and expectations at this football club is embarrassing to see.

As supporters we shouldn’t tolerate it, something seriously needs to be done now, we have to start some form of movement that will force change. Levy has to be made to feel uncomfortable because this seriously is not good enough.

Keeping Ange here is beyond reason or logic, I am sorry but it shouldn’t be accepted under any circumstances at this point.
I wonder how that will be achieved? Levy just blames everyone else. While he's continuing to make gazillions he doesn't really give a toss.
 
Not likely I know, but still hoping for a Tuesday decision tomorrow..

I hate that there seem to be no one who can give Levy some sound advice on this. Munn and Lange, the former especially, aren't gonna last long if Ange goes, so I reckon they will just continue to let this stew. No chance Paratici has any input I supposed?

Honestly it's shit from Munn too. Chief Football Officer and no decision made seeing how dross the performance have been. Not even a shadow of him. Fuck redundant stupid post. His salary could be better used in hiring the new manager.
Munn and Ange go back to their time operating in the same circles back in Australia. And that probably explains some of the patience that the man has earned.

As for Lange: Call me a bit naive but I struggle to see how a genuine football man like him hasn't identified all of the same issues that we do. He doesn't have the gravitas or persona of Paratici but Lange has worked in football as a scout and director for just over a decade. Lange may not be perfect but as far as the backroom people I think that he is the least of our worries.

My main worry there is that he is seemingly the lone football person at that level behind the scenes and is fighting a uphill battle.
 
The only logical conclusion I can come to is Ange somehow manipulated Levy into a honeytrap and has major compromising stuff on him and so Levy is in a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation.
Ange walked in on Levy in a bathroom with his bald cap removed and knows his deepest darkest secret

Levy isn't really bald

And naturally, Levy is terrified that this information will reach the public eye

Ange knows this and is leveraging the situation
 
Lange is technically meant to be over Ange in the hierarchy. But they could just as well be equal. But even if Lange is above Ange then it gets trickier when you factor in Munn. Munn is above Lange and he and Ange are friends/friendly from their time running in the same circles of pro football in Australia. It must be hard for Lange to reign Ange in if Ange can just sidestep him and go to Munn to have him back off.

Not saying that that's what has happened. But speculating.
That seems a reasonable way to look at it. It's also why I won't be surprised if Spurs bring Postecoglou back next season.

The first step is not tolerating the new wave of participation trophy, mediocrity worshipping 'fans' who go hard in the paint to keep this club pinned down on the lowest setting of expectation.

They must be rejected and reviled.

Zero tolerance.

It's been slowly creeping in more and more, and it's got to stop.

Elevate our mindset as fans and maintain the vision of an elevated standard and not surrender to the abusive, demeaning, non-achieving environment that Baldcunt wants to culture (bald fucking crook).

If the fanbase is enabled to further deteriorate and continue to bend and bow to the slop and sludge Baldcunt serves up, it's over for this club.

Right now this is the most critical issue imo.

It never used to be like this (or this bad).

Nothing can be done without the right mindset.

All fans who are still clinging onto Ange's balls are no good to/for this club and need to go and find something else to do.

This game is about winning.

It's not for you.

The annoying thing about waiting till the end of the season is that we sacrifice a great chance to win Europa

it's 5 games vs teams on our level that we on paper can match.

i just don't trust Ange to make us solid and not easy to walk straight through the middle of. .

I don't know much about Frankfurt but if we go thru, will be tough against Rangers/Athletic and don't think we have winners in the final if we get there.
