I would imagine he will be diplomatic enough to avoid any question that relates to the acceptability of losing 22 games out of 38.

Well, he’s a Premier League manager so he’s going to understand that losing half your team to injury for most of the season is going to have a drastic effect on performance. He’ll obviously also know that fighting on all fronts with 4 of 5 of your defence out is essentially an impossibility, and that using something insane like 32 different combinations in defence isn’t a recipe for consistency. He’s not an idiot.

More interesting is why Levy thinks Frank is the man to deliver his stated goal of winning the Premier League when he’s never won anything before, not even the Danish Viking Hammer Throwing League. There’s a first time for everything of course, but this would be the ultimate zero to hero fantasy scenario. Interesting times ahead.

BBC Radio 5 Live - 5 Live In Short, Spurs fan writes Ange Postecoglou a letter which goes viral

Jeremy Conrad bumped into Postecoglou at a hotel on holiday.

What the actual fuck is this. I can’t. Absolute fucking wetwipes in our fanbase. He wrote a handwritten love letter to Ange and sent it to his hotel room with a bottle of wine.

Fuck sake.

Can only assume he's another of those that blatantly doesn't actually sit down and watch us play...

"Cheers Ange for 33+ hours of absolute dross on display during our 22 league defeats last season, really enjoyed that mate!"

Also why tf is he suggesting that Ange united the fanbase? Ange in/out has been one of the most divisive topics of the last 18 months, and it intensified following the Europa win if anything!

Absolute twerp.

Chivers was quite honest about the end of his time at Spurs. It wasn't him that said jennings left a month after Neill, he just said it was after.
Like a dipstick, I looked the dates up and didn't look at the year...
There's a bit of a theme, as greaves was pushed out, jennings was pushed out and Chivers was too.

Spurs didn't pay the wages that the other top clubs were paying. I've heard Steve Perryman talking about this period regarding 'off the radar' payments being the norm at other clubs; but not at Spurs.

Still happens these days. I remember when Kante refusing to be paid offshore was presented as a feel good story by the media (N'Golo Kante emerges from Football Leaks revelations with an improved reputation) when the question everyone should’ve been asking was ‘hang on, Chelsea are doing what?’
 
Ange reunited the fans that touch grass and go outside and have human interaction, not sure about the miserable basement dwellers though... :mourweird:
