I'd take Parker at this point
I don’t believe in reincarnation but if it is true, what the fuck did we all do in a previous life??
I’d take Lady Penelope at this point
These are Levy's exact words from his Chairman's message less than one month ago:
"I have said it many times and I will say it again – everything we do is in the long-term interests of the Club. I have always been and will continue to be ambitious for our Club and its fans."
"We shall focus on the recruitment of a new Head Coach. We are acutely aware of the need to select someone whose values reflect those of our great Club and return to playing football with the style for which we are known – free-flowing, attacking and entertaining – whilst continuing to embrace our desire to see young players flourish from our Academy alongside experienced talent."
A blatant and unapologetic liar directly to all of the supporters.

I feel sick.
Are ITK's like zombies where if one bites you you turn into one?
His managerial record is shit. His record as a human is shit. This is a West Ham level appointment. No, a Millwall level.
And this is after I've had time to digest the news and calm down.

Fuck off you absolute cunt.
Seriously why come to Spurs if you are him , it’s a poison chalice.
He knows what the fans would expect, he knows Levy will scapegoat him when he fails. The job is not attractive now to any half decent manager who actually has a job.
Potter has a good rep , he won’t have once we have chewed him up and spat him out. We re in a truly terrible place now
Gattuso getting hired is a massive red flag. Forget Levy or ENIC out, just nuke the club from orbit and start over.
Lucas and Serge don’t do weekly pressers and have a reputation for losing their temper. Gattuso would last about three games with the British media pressing his buttons.
Don’t know about his coaching skills, but he should be nowhere near the club for being a tosser back in the CL with Jordan. End of discussion for me.
I doubt you have ever touched a woman in your life.
Stick to crying when people call you out on Twitter.
If we're looking at Gold as being an true ITK, like he is putting out insider and secret information through contacts deep within the club, he's a failure.
If we look at Gold as a reporter with some ties to the club that puts out information that can generally be reliable, then I think he does a fairly good job. He doesn't throw out ridiculous rumors at the first sight of them, and any information from him carries a lot more weight than any of the other supposed ITK's.
Given this particular manager search is so dysfunctional, the only good to come out of it is that it has pretty much destroyed any of the ITK's.
If Levy thought the response to Fonseca was bad….
It will be Sol Campbell next, he is lowering our expectations so much that when Martinez walks through the door we are all thankful. Fucking cunt.
