Think theres a good 20 per cent who will never wake up to this. I gave up my ST a couple of years back because I was sick of the ownership. They really are the enemy within.
Its obvious, any club with any ambition does not hire someone whose biggest achievement is winning with Celtic in a league rated 49th in world football. This was always going to happen. Another cheap hire. Levy either hires cheap journeymen who he won't fully back because it's never first choice players because Levy wont pay top dollar or win now managers who he wont back and then sacks because they moan in the media about him. Levy's a fucking nightmare and it seems the whole footballing world can see it apart from some blinkered spurs fans. How many times do we have to lose to Woolwich, Chelsea etc before they fucking wake up.
He's 6th highest paid pl manager...on 6.5 million..not too shabby

Apologies, I did use a jocular metaphor to illustrate my point. If you like, you can send a DM to the Admin on behalf of yourself and all the other joyless curmudgeons and try and ban humour and fun. That way we can get down to the very serious business of discussing something that over 90% of us agree on anyway.

But my point stands, big clubs run by serious people do whatever it takes to be successful. Levy is not a serious chairman and Spurs will never be consistently successful with Levy in charge.

We pay some the highest ticket prices in the world, and for what? We were conned into moving to the new stadium on the promise of it being a game changer. It wasn't.

Nah, I just mean you are another one who isn't willing to have a serious discussion about things.

Swear man, you guys are like trump supports.

'Tries to have a nuanced discussion' Yeah BUT BIDEN
'Tries to have nuanced discussion' YEA BUT BIIIIDDDDEEEENNNNNNNNNNNN

SCREAMS INTO THE ABYSS OF ECHO CHAMBER!!
 
Imagine the new wave of optimism across our long suffering fan base if it was publicly announced that the club was being sold. That Levy and the Lewis clan were taking their billions and fucking off completely.
It would be absolutely unreal.

After 25 years of being the perennial whipping boys of our 2 biggest rivals, their fans would suddenly be shitting themselves

Ahhh, back to reality .:levystare:
 
SpaggyBoy SpaggyBoy just trying to speak to you in your own language.

...and yet for all your bitching and trying to police other people's posts, you're yet to make a serious point yourself. I'm more than happy to engage with you, so pretty please with sugar on top, drop the mod LARPing and make a serious post. I'm certain, you have done before, but TBH I really can't be arsed to trawl through the search function and find a post from ages past.

There... now I've spoken to you in your own language.

Anyway... I've made my view clear, that I think that the stadium was a con and we're paying far too much for tickets for little to nothing in return. I've also said that Spurs will never be successful with Levy in charge. He should have quit years ago.

You?

You?

The staduim was not a 'con' IMHO. There is a difference between something being a con and something that hasn't realised its potential yet.

I personally just don't see the logic of investing that much in something to con people into buying season tickets.... only to purposely not deliver. They are making HUGE amounts of money from season tickets and people going on matchday - if they don't deliver the product people will stop going so much and they will have to lower the prices so staying competitive is essential for their business model.

Now I agree that people are paying too much, I agree that the football team is doing shit right now and I agree that we will never be successful like a City or Chelsea with Levy in charge.

If you have a look, I'm not voting for him to stay and id be happy if he left, but, I also don't think we would somehow magically become successful if that were to happen - would we have a better chance - sure - spending money can bring in great players, make you more competitive..... but no one is ever spending the kind of money city did to buy dominance again - it's not happening.

With all the money Chelsea has spent the last couple of seasons, they finished 12th, 6th and picked up LESS points than we did in their last 5 games against the same opposition.

Like, I don't understand the blind spot people have about football and global sport. It's not for the fans anymore. You literally cannot support a team in a top division and want to regularly compete without accepting that your chairman and the business behind them don't give any fucks about you whatsoever and they never will.

World Cups in Qatar and Saudi, the FA allowing our league to be bought year after year after year by oligarchs and states that oppress their people in some of the worst ways.

I get the pantomime of it all, I get that having a single point of focus like ENIC or Levy is my more comfortable than accepting that none of us have any control over this stuff and it is never, ever going back to what it was..... but I have just moved past that

What will be will be. Getting mad, angry whatever isn't going to change a thing and while for sure our owners are complicit, they are just players in a game that is gone.
 
With the club languishing in the bottom half, slashing the wage bill and determined to stick by a manager so patently out of his depth......

A timely reminder if why Levy and Lewis got involved with football
