This is a football club, success is measured by trophies. It's not measured by graphs or balance sheets or anything else.
If that's really what you want ditch football and start supporting an accountancy firm.
Archie - we’ve discussed this. Learn the difference between « your » and « you’re ». It’s not that hard.
Shady's on his way in an Uber to help out.
Start your own team and win the league.
Maybe money is important.
If you're going to go after grammar and spelling, we don't use those punctuation marks in this country xxx
Instead of going after wank schedules?
You sound like an arrogant prick
I haven't even mentioned wanking. Whatever.
You quoted me replying to someone who did. Are you ok?
Be reasonable. Maybe you got confused - fair enough.
Well to the extent you're willing to listen to my fair and balanced view, I think you should take this much more seriously:
To dismiss that as "talking points" is to willfully blind yourself to the core of the issue.
Daniel Levy asks for first class, spare-no-expense investment from his customers and is firmly, ideologically unwilling to provide first class, spare-no-expense football in return.
We as supporters would be derelict in our duties not to be furious about this. To accept this is to adopt Levy's fundamentally non-sporting worldview.
The Game Is About Glory. To Dare Is To Do.
Ok this has devolved into ridiculousness so I’m done.
Mate you just tried to smugly correct someone's English and it backfired.
Maybe just fucking take the L.
I'll have you know I was quite the scholar before the accident
No business leader is rewarded for any other success than financial success. Tottenhams financial success is huge and Levy’s pay is not obscene given the growth in the club since he took over. If he paid himself 0, his wages could pay Ben Davies for less than a season. It’s nothing.
Ticket prices are a function of many factors. Success on the pitch is not directly one of them.
The Arizona Cardinals in the NFL charge $1400 for a season ticket. The worst team charges what we do. Think through the economics and you’ll see there are a lot of factors that go into it.
Woolwich and Tottenham charge the most because they have the best stadiums in the wealthiest city in the football-playing world.
City struggle to fill their stadium (which they didn’t have to pay for themselves) and average wages and tourism is much lower in Manchester. So they charge less despite the success.
This is economics not sentimentality.
And that's it.
I'm not one of these dyed in the wool Levy haters, I'm tired of saying it: I used to be quite sympathetic with his approach. The stadium, the go karts, the NFL, the concerts. All of it. I fully get it. In theory, at least.
But as the years tick by all I see is this incredible income being squandered, and by the way my vastly overpriced season ticket is part of this income. The game changer hasn't changed the game, and this seems to be an active choice. The only thing I see going up are ticket prices and Levy's salary.
I was fully behind it all but I've got my limits. We all do.
