Yep. The only ever time we were close to being sold was after the CL Final.

So sa sale could well happen. Fans need to force them out I reckon. Dont think they will have the stomach for the toxicity.

One fair argument right now is that the club do not currently have the football expertise to start going about such a project. Other Premier League figures are insistent that Spurs won’t be able to properly do anything like that until there is a change in ownership.
The rumours there refuse to go away. Many potential buyers are said to be interested. The Lewis family, however, are still described as “capricious” on this subject.
And of course, it wouldn’t be modern Spurs without some other layer of complication.

Going from place to place with no identity has defined the ENIC tenure. We are a front foot attacking club by history and culture and defensive managers ALWAYS fail with us but for some reason we try again just in case it might work this time.
Just think of how badly it fucks the players going from all our Ange attack to cowardly Frank style overnight. Must fuck the scouts as well who sign players for a different style.
And we have been at least top 6 for years, until we bought youngsters last summer and have an almighty injury problem that seems to haunt us every season now.
The youngsters strategy coincides with Lange's priorities which will be governed by the owners.
The youngsters approach has almost destroyed the club. Almost.
When Levy left, he said that he would only be appreciated when he's gone. That leads me to think that maybe he was fighting with ENIC, all day long, to spend money on players and to invest in the team, even if we didn't see it. It's as if to say he was possibly the reason that Spurs had anything good or achieved anything at all, in a football sense, and that he'd once gone, there would be no-one left to champion the team & football side.
When you look at what's been happening since, I do wonder if Levy wasn't more on our side that we ever knew, with hands perpetually tied by tight owners who, with their voting rights, could veto anything Levy ever put forward. We may never know, but his parting comments are food for thought.

Nope he was the evil bald bad man sent from castle Greyskull on a mission to bring the Spurs empire down.
These ENIC bozos really can't get anything right.
Ok, so if that's true, then why did he genuinely think we would be worse off without him, aside from his ego?
Yeah, I got the sarcasm but I thought your sentiment was anti-Levy, so apologies. I'm just trying to figure out if it was as much Levy as we were led to believe.Was being sarcastic dude
No he was in it for the money. I am sure that he would have loved a rich backer behind him who he could spend his money.
Here's the thing. Take away your love for the football team and what are you left with? A business. Last season that business performed poorly finishing behind 16 rivals but still generated more revenue than all but 4 of those rivals. Where is the incentive for the business to pump more money in. There isn't any. The gap between the floor and the ceiling on the football side for a CEO and CFO is negligible. They would need to spend 100% more to "potentially" get 20% extra. Simply not worth it.
He was talking about the stadium and training ground, to give those words context.
Opinions are like..... Everyone has one and you are entitled to yours.
But COYS for today. I hope Igor makes the difference
I’d swap relegation if it forced them to sell
They have to make sure the relegation wouldn't happen and sell up. Value of the club is dropping. They are a bunch of stupid people. I could excuse them for being stupid in football decisions, but I didn't think even they could be so stupid in business decision to not have sold it before this season, right after Levy was gone when we were at our highest level fresh from winning the Europa league.
