Agree on all points and im hoping we still see further backing
It’s not just the level below, the signings really have to be players no-one else wants. Single source negotiations when the club needs to sell.
Lots of factors
Brutal and straight to the point but nails it superbly
And he still always talks about the stadium.
Always oh the cheap, always leaving us short. He has taken us as far as he could about 7 years ago. Out immediately for me.

But of course there are plenty of ways a man with £500m plus of equity could raise the cash aren’t there
It’s almost certainly revenue positive to have a sponsor. Or maybe everyone else is wrong and Daniel is right ?
Tottenham getting battered everywhere we go

Angela Rayner takes on Spurs to force through 3k new homes near stadium
Sadiq Khan has spoken out in support of the housing development to help 'accelerate the delivery of new homes'
I don't agree with this. Our four most recent record signings are Davinson Sanchez, Tanguy Ndombélé, Richarlison and Dominic Solanke I think, none of whom you could reasonably argue as successful
Add in the likes of Reguilon, Sessengon, Soldado, Bergwijin, Lo Celso, Sissoko, all of whom cost big money, and our return on the money we've spent on expensive transfers is pretty abysmal.
Compare that to the likes of Bale, Dele, Kane, Walker, Eriksen, etc. and you can absolutely see why Levy is so reluctant to spend big.
He can see the evidence with his own eyes.
That's a risk though, ENIC don't do risks. Never spend money they don't have
Really?
It's be debated to death on here. We don't need a sponsor.
It might have been debated - who cares. Levy has no idea what the benefit is of having the current name. Its guesswork. Baloney even. He has no sponsor because he thinks it’s worth more than it is.
So, as I said, us shopping at the higher end of our available market doesn’t lead to success. Which you’ve said you don’t agree with, but then posted several examples of unsuccessful signings from that level.
You said:
I was pointing out that when Levy has taken that risk, i.e. by breaking our transfer record, it's not worked out, and that our more succesful players have often been "cheaper" punts.
Which you said, "are the exception, not the rule." whereas, it seemes fairly evident that the opposite is true.
He's not anywhere near wealthy enough on paper to own a club of this size. His net worth is £400m, even with 25% of a sale, if that were to be £4bn, £1.5bn still isn't anywhere near enough personal wealth to run a football club this size, of you have any aspirations of winning.
The chants of away fans singing (Daniel Levy, we want you to stay) after a bad loss & some home fans voiced discontent to owners, is a gut punch for those sensitive souls like me in attendance!There's a lifelong gooner in my indoor footie team. He always talks about Levy in glowing terms. Exactly in the same way dududu do. Always reminds of him when the topic comes up.
It does make you wonder. .
Have we ever sang Levy’s name? I’ve never heard it & we can be fickle fans sometimes. Makes you think…
Evolving our infrastructure and assets, bravo great business man sure.
Football side? See this thread and X ad naseum infiniti
I came here to seek balance on why Dan gets away with it for so long. I’ve had enough but don’t want my matchday experience tarnished by toxicity when it’s my escape. So we do sort of need to be together or at least a critical mass.
I don’t get why he’s still defended so widely even if not serenaded. Respect the opinions of those who don’t see it as a big issue but just can’t see that POV.
Are there more like me who are at their wits end but don’t wanna start being negative during games?

And so tell me, why do you always post the same images all the time and make the same point over and over again?
Looking forward to the window being done and we win a few games so you'll go 'on holiday' again.
We were warned right ?

Daniel Levy: Tottenham transfer spending must be 'smart' and 'sustainable'
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy says the club's transfer spending must be "sustainable" and "smart" after a fall in revenue in their latest financial results.

Tempting fate here but a lot of people are hanging their hats on 2 games a week being this insurmountable obstacle for us - Pochettino who you mention had a starting XI with little in the way of back up options,certainly worse than we have now, while we played in the CL under him and he managed to navigate 3 or 4 competitions most of those seasons to the latter stages - he done so by keeping his XI fit and 3-4 others.
Our issue isn't actually depth - it's lacking some quality in the first XI to move what should be a top 6 team towards being title challengers, in terms of actual depth we have pretty good options apart from full back (only Spence to cover both sides) and AMC where we have injuries.
