Is another layer of management what we need?
Looks again, like a case of too many chiefs but we will see.

Grossly exaggerating !?!,I'm saying that you're grossly exaggerating. You seem touchy about this today for some reason, so I'm not gonna keep on about it.
I posted a potential way forward here:What would be your solution to sort out the entire pile of shit that we currently find ourselves in, as in who would prefer DOF wise, manager wise etc...
Levy leaving I will not accept as that's not going to happen obviously...
According to Ally Gold, Munn will be Number 2 to Levy.
Paratici, if his appeal is successful, will report to Munn.
So, the (gardening leave) DoF reports to the (no meaningful football experience) Chief Operating Officer who reports to Levy?
Who is leading the search for our next Head Coach?
I absolutely do not want this Munn geezer in charge of the process.
Who does the new Head Coach - JN, Poch, Slot, Kompany, whoever - report to, and precisely who will sign off on transfers?
This appointment blurs all these lines.
It's just another fine mess, at a critical time for our club.
EDIT: I see Munn is "joining in the summer". So the answer to my questions is presumably that Levy & Joe Lewis' daughter are leading those processes.
He once demanded I heap praise on Levy for sacking Mourinho.

Even though he appointed him himself just 18 months earlier![]()
I posted a potential way forward here:
---------------------------
A coherent structure would involve ENIC hiring an experienced DoF to implement an agreed strategy - such as playing attacking, high tempo, football, signing talented players with clear potential to become top class (as per Modric, Bale, Berbatov, Eriksen, Verts, Walker) whilst giving opportunities to our most exceptional home grown Academy youngsters.
The DoF would then identify the best head coach to implement that strategy.
Once we hired a head coach who bought into the agreed plan, we would then seek to sign players to fit the tactical approach preferred by that coach.
Instead, we have Levy deciding to sign Maddison, without the involvement of a DoF or a head coach.
I note Conte allegedly turned down any move for Maddison because his system has no room for number 10s.
Whatever any of us think of Maddison as a player, there's no point signing him until we know the identity of our head coach & the system he wants to use.
Transfers - Summer Transfer Thread 2023!
It’s pretty incredible that we officially have , at the moment , no one looking for a manager bar levy & god knows who.Take back what I said before then, just another man to answer to along the chain that Levy lords over.
This club is fucked honestly.
Agreed ref petition , but if he knows the fans think he is doing an appalling job which I agree he almost certainly does , the bit I don’t get is you are a fan yet seem to be willing to die on a hill defending himCome on don't be so naive, do you really not think that he knows what the fans think of the job he's doing?
He just doesn't give a shit and a silly petition isn't going to change that.
Steady on old chap

Step away , not set up the next scapegoat which this stinks ofSpurs fans: 'We need Levy to step away from the footballing side'
Also Spurs fans:' Levy is clearly passing the buck onto someone else'

The board. Silent owner like Lewis, hands off from operations entirely. He’s an appalling CEO and also a cunt. Take those wankers Cullen and Collecot too, plus his fraud son who is apparently on c.500k
