Match Everton v Spurs April 3rd

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Im not talking about what the club have spent, or how well. That’s not a debate

Strange sense of priority there.... But yeh; Moshiri pissed a fortune away and left them on the brink of relegation. Big-up; I guess.

miser 1 and miser 2 paid c.30M for Spurs (which I think they borrowed and paid back through a moody share conversion) and invested little since. Moshiri has personally invested >500M if not more

Yes the x500 is an exaggeration but hopefully the point makes sense

The point? Moshiri has spent more of his own money than ENIC..... Not exactly thrilling (or insightful), but ok. Makes little difference to me. Again, it seems the so-called "spreadsheet fans" are less concerned with money than those that accuse them of being so.

I put more into Spurs than Levy does

By that notion; I have too....... :)

ENIC made no secret that we are run to be self-sustaining a long long time ago..

....If you don't like that. Stop spending.

If the value goes up to 1m and your desperate for a new car you can borrow on the equity - if you want you can realise some of the value pre sale.

And has the club done so?
No?
Then it is pretty irrelevant point, isn't it.

I would understand if board would have leveraged up the club and then paid out dividends for it.
But it has not happened. They only have taken on debt to finance the stadium construction and these amounts were in fact invested into stadium.
 
I've watched them all and my memory is fine.
I don't go on witch hunts or denigrate our players when they fail to be Christiano Maradonna-Messi.
But....
Kulusevski and Son are both way down on last season levels and if there are cries to drop one, then it should be the same for the other.
Peresic has been awful as well, but he is the top for assists because his crossing and corners have been great, but his contribution otherwise has been awful, and his defending non existent

The reason they both get games is because we know it's in their locker, and we keep hoping the don't forget the key

Agreed - across the season both, Son and Kulu have dropped their levels.

But what I am saying is that Son basic output right now is even worse. So on basis of having to find 11 players that suck the least, Kulu should be ahead of Son.
It is totally pointless and empty to say "both way down on last season levels and if there are cries to drop one, then it should be the same for the other." - ffs, everyone except for Kane have dropped level. Should we then go 1 vs 11? Or try to pick 10 that has dropped the least??

You are looking at the words, not the meaning. I agree that Perisic across season has not been good as well. I just said that Kulu has 6 assists in EPL which proves that your initial point "can't cross, can't pass" is obviously not true.
 
What chants are Spurs Fans going to chant tonight. Personally I am hoping for:
He's Magic You Know
Antonio
Martin Martin Jol
Any manager that Levy has sacked over the years. And a Levy out chant. Also maybe a Paratici 's going to prison chant.

Anything to put pressure on the board.

It's the point being made so hardly irrelevant, the owners have made billions in unrealised profits, the team needed investment, they could have realised some of profit to invest in the team but chose not to.

I'm not acusing them of taking money, I'm agreeing they have made billions and saying its only realisable on sale is bunkum.

Why the f are you defending them? Are you ok?

They haven’t put any money or gains back into the club, yet you are seemingly happy to put your lips around it and suck away
 
It's incredible the way the LevyBots have managed to propagandize the notion of ENIC collecting literal billions of pounds in inflated asset value of Tottenham Hotspur and not reinvesting a single penny of it as "fiscal prudence".

"They've never taken any money out of the club"

*Walks away with four billion pound profit*

"ENIC is gone, what are you still complaining about?"
TBH, I will cheer when both of those bastards are gone but this example annoys me less than the complete ineptitude of Levy and his highly paid echo chamber. It’s a good secondary example of why they need to fuck off asap
 
This is the most sexually charged match thread I can remember.

Also. The. Worst. Match. Thread. Title. Ever.

There’s not even the fucking time!!!!! Seriously. Fucking amateur hour around here.
Must be all the blood flowing away from peoples brains.

I’m calling this “The David Ginola sexy time love machine derby”
Enjoy Monday night you Barry White inspired motherfuckers.

Why are you bigging up owners that have done a FAR worse job of running their club than ours?

.....You clearly aren't "ok".



Grow up.
Not bigging them up, just pointing out the fact the leaches invest less than fuck all compared to you and I, let alone their peers like Moshiri. Eve owners are clueless and misguided but generous vs our deep pocketed rats

Enthralling.......

I know who I'd rather have had for the last 20 years and it's not the man who's spending you're enamored by.

As long as it isn’t a pro Rodgers chant
