Is this you inadvertently confirming you are the secret mastermind pulling the strings from within the shadows for CFT?
It all adds up

It all adds up
Yes but I don't want to get too carried away, happy to blend into the background
Thanks me later.
Fair play to him, thats really good.
This is how we are announcing Ange’s contract extension.This is one that Daniel can actually deliver . Staying up is hard will be the new winning is hard mantra .
I love the new Levy video being shot in atmospheric black and white . He really has sucked all the joy out of being a Spurs fan whilst draining fans bank accounts
It’s a risk that no promoted side has a good season, eventually one will get lucky with results and good signings
The fact is that we could never be as bad as we are this season
A culmination of Ange not lasting the season if it happens again which is a pretty big reason we are where we are and the fact that it's beyond difficult to have a similar injury crisis that we had this season as well, you can probably put that back on Ange as well.
This board aren't stupid, they've spent all these years readying this football club to capitalise of the Premier League branding, if we're in the Champo the amount of sponsors and events it will lose will be absolutely monumental.
Full throttle.
Didn't see that coming.
If people have got twitter accounts they should go and give him an attaboy for going there, as he's usually a bit of a pussy.
He's usually very, very careful not to upset the apple cart too much.
Him coming out on sky like that and going full tilt should be a massive alarm bell to Baldcunt.
His precious multi-event stadium going toxic is now the next stop down this dark road.
And he can bin any sadistic, twisted notion he may have about keeping that fat wallaby past an EF loss.
Seriously, everyone who's got a twitter account, go and give him a like and comment on this and big him up for coming strong with what was needed.
He's an effective voice, give encouragement.
I honestly don’t think people have realised the magnitude of that shocking statement by Levy. They focus on the first bit… but it’s the last bit which is what is most wrong.
Levy makes a big deal about “all profit going back into the club” to excuse his management of the club. However that statement makes it VERY clear that he sees the income streams as completely separate.
Beyoncé, F1, music gigs, etc have all been sold to fans as “profit to make this football club great again”. Which is how it should work - raise commercial revenues to build up the football team. Whereas in fact he makes it VERY clear here, in that statement, that he doesn’t see it that way.
He feels the football side should be self-sustaining on its own (not “the club” but the football team) and that he’s done the team (and fans) a favour by letting the commercial revenues “prop up” the football side temporarily instead of using that cash for estate growth (which he’d clearly prefer). He’s basically saying we should be thankful that he’s lent the football side some cash from the commercial side because they have underperformed. So admitting that the plan for all the commercial money ISN’T to put it back into the FOOTBALL side, in normal circumstances.
Absolutely shocking statement and the magnitude of which seems to have been lost on most with the headline grabbing “we can’t spend what we don’t have” statement.
It’s an admission that he’s used fan’s money (through deceit and lies) to build himself/ENIC an events stadium for himself and not the fans or the football club, and that in real terms nothing actually changes on the football side. We’re operating the same as we did prior Tottenham the stadium build, and the net spend figures look healthy but are a simple consequence of football inflation that would have happened anyway.
And the net spend figures aren’t even that healthy anyway. Postecoglou has had £46m per window net spent on average and across the 4 windows the wage bill has reduced by more than £20m/pa (£100m+ across a 5yr contract).
Hardly “going for it”, or “game-changing”, is it?!
Just something I came across on Twitter (X), and thought it was a pretty solid clarification of the situation.

As long as we stay in the PL, Levy does not need to win anything, he does not even need CL football, he just needs 10 x NFL game contracts, Beyonce concerts, Go Karting and stadium tours. Until fans stop attending games as well as not spending money in the stadium he will get away with it. Stop lining his pockets or stop moaning about his ownership.
It only takes 1 promoted team to be better than usual. I do agree if we were in a relegation scrap - Levy would crap himself and make funds available to keep us in the division
Post from Tottenham Away
And only 2000 Spurs fans attend the protest! There should be at least 25% of that Levy Bowl stadium protesting!youtube.com
Other Big 6 sides on average spent 144M more on wages this season compared to ENIC. Shocking!Post from Tottenham Away

My question is HOW? Where is that 144M coming from with other clubs? - Or what else are we spending on instead of wages?
I think only United and Scouse revenue are more than ours but 144M more (genuinely no idea)? - and for Arse, Chav’s and City - Are their owners reaching into their pockets to pay wages - Or is Levy taking our revenue and putting into developing real estate or spending on something else?
If ENIC genuinely isn’t pulling money out of the club (other than Levy’s bloated salary) - then something doesn’t seem to add up? How do other Big 6 clubs have the funds to pay 144M more in wages than us?
Genuinely want to know …

Because they are spending a proportionately higher sum of their revenue on salaries compared to us.
But that doesn't answer the question put by SpursDNA
Where is the proportion we're NOT spending on salaries (that other clubs are) being spent.
I've just completed it, but suspect it will be a waste of time. I doubt that anything will change the atmosphere in a modern mega stadium. Be interesting to see how Everton get on next season.
Explained my point better than I did - Much appreciated good sir.
Well for that we need to see where that report came from and how it's broken down for all clubs.
Do you have a link?
Edit - Found something. Guess we'll find out on this podcast tomorrow:
View: https://x.com/levynomics1882/status/1911728069158580441
I'd like to know the specifics of this too.
Stadium loan repayments and interest will be part of the story, but not all.
We've also spaffed a lot on very poor value for money transfers and manager pay offs, with Kane the only sizable sale in years.
