ENIC In or ENIC Out

So, wouldn't 'big' decisions at a board level include policy with significant financial implications? I'm thinking, let's say, a wage structure for the first-team squad, or a level over which a wages/turnover ratio is not allowed to rise?

I suppose what I'm trying to say is that, on the big decisions concerning the financial issues, the JLF Trust "vote", or better "power", is everything here. Might this be a problem constraining Levy's range of action at the level of football?
The big picture ENIC project at Spurs, to invest no outside capital, run the club off of its own revenue, while cordoning off as much of that revenue as possible into infrastructure investments on the side to further buttress the underlying asset value, is and has always been a joint conception and operation by Lewis and Levy. Their vision for the club is not two perspectives, it's one.

In theory, in a business school textbook, the placement of Lewis' interest into trust, being administered by an independent outside trustee, introduces the possibility that the trustee would take a different view, and by virtue of the trust being the majority shareholder could force through changes.

But in real life in the real world, people who are in the lucrative business of trusteeship are not in the habit of operating the trusts contrary to the wishes of still-alive billionaires, seeing as still-alive billionaires are the customer base of trustees.

All in all this is one of those situations where the dumb TalkSport caller colloquial understanding of the situation is, at the bottom of a well of caveats and technicalities, the correct substantive truth: Spurs are a one-man-show of Daniel Levy.
 
So we still rolling around in bundles of extra investment....lovely just checking

Only thing giving me pause this time is that Sami Mokbel reported it.

For some reason, they’ve used him in the past for obvious board room leaks I.e. Dressing room unrest when they want to manage the PR of sacking a manager.

In this case, if they are planning to go harder in the transfer market, I can see them wanting ENIC to get some positive PR for “injecting “ some of their own money in
 
Hey guys. Hope I'm following correct procedure here.

I hereby give notice that 06 -13 September this year (2025) we will be on holiday in Normandy, France 🇫🇷.
It is highly unlikely that I will have either the time, or indeed the desire, to post on The Fighting Cock during this period.

Apologies to all those who will be distressed by my absence. 🐐

There will also be a weekend in August. Exact dates to be determined, but I'll notify you all once this is confirmed.

Many thanks for your understanding

John
Still sneaking around handing out reactions though... Knew you couldn't stay away after a loss.

Missing out on another trophy due to having no depth on the bench. Was the tale of the night tonight. Proper shit cunts.
So called Spurs fans finding this post funny / amusing....

.Tonight of all nights.

Shocking stuff. :var:

*Edit: one at least has seen sense and deleted

The boys we did have out there did their best and did us proud. Lambs to the slaughter and they played like lions

Baldcunt doesn't care he fucked us out of this cup with his negligence.

Packed concert schedule.

Everything's sweet.

Couldn't give two fucks about the heart of the fans.

Thanks. It makes sense.
 
The reality is that we'd have likely won that game if we had better quality coming in off the bench. Quality desperately needed.

Hindsight is a great thing and all that but if Savinho and Eze were Spurs players we'd have won the Super Cup last night.

That's on Levy and Lange. They cost us.
