Frank wouldn't be here now if Levy was. People used to criticise him for sacking managers, but now the pendulum is so far the other way that it's self-destructive.

It comes across as apathy when there's total silence from the club. We don't even have the media pointing at Vinai or Vivienne or whoever, and I think that's because responsibility is so absent now.
Levy let Ange stay way longer than he should have.
He let the rot set in and everyone at the club got too comfortable losing PL games.

He got soft in his old bald age.
 
ENIC and sugar took the swagger out of tottenham imo. We used to take risks before then. Now we're run by accountants who know fuck all about football. They need to sell up in summer. They've outstayed their welcome.
they won't go anywhere until they get what they want
if they are offered £4Bn they will think its worth £5Bn
unlike Newcastle where the fans made it hard for their owner, our season ticket holder are just apathetic,

Newcastle's fans did nothing, they didn't summon an entire country to come and buy them. Saudi Arabia wanted to buy a premier league club, and Newcastle were convenient easy pickings at £300m and had and still have huge potential.

We're not for sale for £300m, we are in an entirely different situation but as always you find a way to lump all the blame on our season ticket holders while you yourself continue to do nothing.

So what are YOU going to do?
 
I actually wonder do they realise the trouble we are actually in
Yes we have all spoken on this thread about enic
But you have to ask yourself
What are they actually up to
We will get plenty of conspiracy theories no doubt
But just none of what they are doing makes any sense 🤷‍♂️
 
That Romero red will have suited our owners perfectly.

They know they don’t have the political capital to punish Romero for his criticism of them because they idiots they’ve appointed in the football department don’t have half the respect that Romero has in the squad and fanbase.

Michael Oliver did exactly what they wanted. Now friendly media can condemn him as well. Perfect outcome for the Lewis children

It does make sense if you have knowledge of ENIC, their history and their stated intentions.

They wanted a state of the art multi sports and entertainment venue in London, with the long term vision of NFL becoming the focal point with an eventual franchise the ultimate goal.

In the meantime, alongside the NFL, boxing, and high end music and entertainment events they need a so called '"Anchor tenant" to utilise the venue on a regular basis to pay for it. (Anchor tenant is their own term, btw).

Look at this. We ain't that prominent.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

We fill that role. Yes, ideally in the Premier League. But not in the Premier League at any cost.

The football team is the only 'attraction' at the venue that requires investment from the owners themselves.... If they could sell the football club alone and rent the stadium back they wouldn't hesitate.

The stadium is already listed as a separate Private Limited Company (PLC)

The summer window will indeed be the one they should be judged on.

Levy usually had the knack of doing just enough, to persuade enough people, not to kick off too badly regarding his dealings.

ENIC will be judged on this summer no matter what excuses are offered if there is more failure.

Having said that.

Kudus and Simons may prove to be better long term purchases than Semenyo and Eze.

Time will tell.
Semenyo and Eze are miles better than Kudus.

Levy himself said that, Enic got into football for financial gain only.
As you have stated, the football team is, just a small part of a wider business empire that makes a lot of money for them.
The people running it are deluded, not buying any players to try and kick the team on will, prove to be a fuck up of mammoth proportions.
I think the club is sliding out the league, they can't buy a win, West Ham are actually in better form than us.
We literally can't beat anyone especially at home, sad state of affairs, manager has the look of, not knowing what he can do.
 
ENIC are doing nothing to protect their interests . Any owner that let's their assets depreciate is foolish . If we get relegated it would wipe millions if not billions off of the value of the club . If I was Levy I would be thinking that ENIC are deliberately driving down the value of the club so they can buy him out and have full ownership . Whatever happens you can buy a Tottenham season ticket in the local joke shop at the end of the season .

The asset is the billion pound multipurpose sports and entertainments arena.

Beyonce, the Foo Fighters, Oasis, the NFL, the Boxing and WWE won't give a single shit that Spurs are playing Oxford United instead of Manchester United and the derby is now Millwall and not Woolwich.

The football operation will need a massive haircut, so we'll sell the players and replace cheaply. But the other side of the venture will carry on.

Don't get me wrong, the non football operations income is impressive and it should be used properly to propel the football club to new heights. I've got no problem with gokarts and concerts because in theory it gives us a massive edge, but it does seem that it's being misused or perhaps even the premier league football is now the sideshow.
 
he’s gone into an established team and squad. Hasn’t really had time to show what he can do. Looked alright against us though. I mean he’s clearly a better player than Kudus.

He has played 30 games for them this season?

Clue is in there, established team with better structure and better players but flopping so hard.
