Well that would be extraordinary behaviour to go to such lengths, as to effectively take over the rival team, wreck the club by being a mischievous elf, and be quietly chuffed when it loses or fails but at the same time keep up the public bravado of wanting it to succeed.

ENIC's first chairman of THFC, David Buchler's, daughter married the then Woolwich chairman, David Dein's son.
Dein's son had been slipping the porky sword to Alan Sugar's daughter before that.
Don't take my word for it.
Love match unites Spurs and Gunners
The son of Woolwich's vice-chairman has announced his engagement to the daughter of Tottenham Hotspur's vice-chairman.

Also Levy said during his interview with the new gooner director that he likes a drop of red wine.
Don't Spurs supporters prefer white wine?
You realise that was a quote about Rangers??
It was a generic quote about football in general which included Tottenham.
Well that's it then, you've got the whole lot of them bang to rights.ENIC's first chairman of THFC, David Buchler's, daughter married the then Woolwich chairman, David Dein's son.

No, it was a quote from the mid-to-late 90s when they started a portfolio with Rangers and Slavia Prague. It had absolutely nothing to do with Tottenham, but it has become some kind of onanistic quote to attack them with.
If you are referring to that quote from the highlighted passage often posted on here, it was 100% about buying Rangers. You just have to read the bits that aren’t highlighted.
You are pushing the wrong table. To any employee including players the most important figure is not the % of total wages paid compared to other employers but what they actually get paid. We have the 7th highest wages in the PL. Now whilst money is not everything it is important. 7th will not get us the PL title. We are better than say Brentford hence being able to knick their Manager and their best players are leaving. However we are a very long way behind some of the top 6 and now behind Villa. Now we are heavily borrowed and no doubt have clauses in our loans preventing too much borrowing. There is not the money to substantially increase wages without a cash injection which our present owners either cannot or will not provide. That leaves only 2 options a minority shareholder putting money in or selling up.Well. We invest a lower proportion of our overall club revenue in our playing squad than every other football club in every major league in Europe so.....
Draw your own conclusions, matey
I think the recent appointment of the CEO and the video was brought on by last season’s protests. Whether these protests continue remains to be seen.
Nah. He's no Woolwich fan. He's no Spurs fan either.
He's no football fan full stop..... just a self confessed opportunist who jumped on the gravy train to profit from footballs global popularity.
He saw football as a "money spinner"
I’m actually impressed at you posting this. The most remarkable troll post I’ve ever seen on here. Takes big clanging balls and a neck made of pure brass to keep posting this passage that doesn’t mention our great club once.Nah. He's no Woolwich fan. He's no Spurs fan either.

You are many things, but you aren’t stupid. You know what you are doing here. So do most others. Still be a few imbeciles that fall for your nonsense though.
Apparently the club has got permission to increase the amount of non-footballing events at the stadium, thus increase revenue.
''Until recently, the number of non-football events Spurs have been permitted to host has been capped at 16 by the Haringey Council, but the club have now received a license to host 30 events per year at the venue.
According to an analysis conducted by Goldman Sachs, 16 non-football events were worth £55m to the club in the last financial year, but with the number of events now doubling, Spurs could now be set to rake in £110m per year from non-footballing events.''
How much Tottenham are set to earn from non-football events per year
How much do Tottenham earn from non-footballing events at their stadium per year? That figure is about to go up!

Really good read mate. Tells us a lot.
Great news. Now, can we get a set of published accounts that clearly show where that money goes please.Apparently the club has got permission to increase the amount of non-footballing events at the stadium, thus increase revenue.

It doesn't say that there is no love for rangers
It categorically says there is no love for FOOTBALL

No it doesn’t. If you can see the quote “there is no love for football”, please tell me where.
I think you'll find it doesn't, actually. You're just reading what you want to from that.
It says, in relation to buying minor stakes in random-ass european teams, that there "is no passion" in their decision, and that the decisions were "purely financial".
Considering the lack of quotage beyond that, and that Levy has been attending spurs games long before there was a financial stake in the club, does it not strike you as a little counter-intuitive for someone without love for football would be attending matches, then selling off all other stakes to invest in Spurs, then pouring the best years of his life into running the thing, the whole time not actually selling it off for a tasty profit?
