Maybe a secondary goal.

So I'm pretty sure this team would have beat Chelsea the other night in its prime. Roberts would have to play midfield but he could. Nicholas Jackson ain't getting a hatrick against King and Mabbutt. Falco and Chivers on James at the back post having a buffet. Hazard and Ossie running it Allen picking up the knock downs .

A load of frustrated fans chanting at the owner for about 30 seconds because we were losing is a protest in your eyes?
Looks like as per previous managers, this will be Ange to Levy in January:
Our previous manager was purchased very good players the last two Jan windows.
A protest (also called a demonstration, remonstration or remonstrance) is a public expression of objection, disapproval or dissent towards an idea or action
That’s the thing isn’t it. What did we win in the 60s? How many times did we win the league?
How many trophies did we win overall if that was our decade of great success how does it really match up?
Compare that to Liverpool in the 80s, United in the 90s and 00s or City in the 10s.
And the league titles really don’t compare. It’s a cold hard fact.
Next level up is Real Madrid who have won the European cup / champions league 14 times. We’ve reached one final in our history..
Under ENIC.
And the FA cup is a great example. Growing up we were always known as a cup team. Never going to win the League. Too inconsistent. But could put a cup run together. Win the cup. Finish 10th. That was spurs.
But these days the cups are dominated by the clubs winning the league.
We won 8 FA cups between 1901 and 1991. Since the premier league started in 1992 - woolwich, United, Chelsea and City have won it 24 times between them.
Football has changed. We are playing catch up. But I think we are almost there.
We win nothing but can fill a 60k stadium with fans paying top dollar because we are Tottenham Hotspur. It’s mental really.
And I’d put good money the next ten years (if they stay) ENIC have more success than they had in the last 20.
We are one of the big boys now. For a long time we weren’t really. As likely to finish mid table as top 4. Not anymore.
COYS!!
No idea if true , but let’s be honest it is very believable. Ryan Nelsen and Saha have been searching the attic for their boots just in case
We were in the mix for the league that Jan. idiots
Apart from the two windows we didn't.
If that's your idea of protest then no wonder the owners aren't budging.
So.. You're wrong again, we don't always end up spending the money.
My bad, didn't think I had to got back 10 transfer windows for you to understand a general point and what is seemingly an anomaly seeing at the money has been spent since then
Just being pedantic and pointing out that it was a protest by definition.If that's your idea of protest then no wonder the owners aren't budging.
I couldn't care less about any of it right now because I think Levy's set us back in the right direction, which is all many of us wanted. A course correction. Getting Ange was a master stroke; restructuring the hierarchy; an overhaul of the squad. No complaints.
I don't think we need to spend big in January or the summer, just wisely. I'm hoping we uncover a few more youthful gems who Ange can get jumping through fire for him.
Nobody spends big in January.
All figures are gross spend.
If we look at January 2023, the total spend was @ £815m.
But this was skewed by the chavs spending @ £290m in that window.
If we take the chavs ridiculous one off spending out, that leaves @ £525m spent by 17 clubs.
This makes an average of @ £31m per club spent.
January 2022, clubs spent a total of £295m
An average of less than £16.5m per club.
Even the previous record of £430m gross spent in a January window from 2018 means an average of less than£24m per club.
TLDR:
If we get one top CB in we'll be doing well.

That's why the tweet is utter vague nonsense devoid of any sort of context whatsoever...
There is no chairman in the world that's going to tell the media "We're skint mate and ain't spending nuffink"
Totally made up click bait.
Absolute perfect timing after we lost...
Exactly. Media saw it as a perfect opportunity to gain clicks and likes.
