If we win Europa, it'll feel like an accident rather than by design
Embarrassing lack of oversight in keeping thus manager for a whole season.
Our team has just bent over been and humiliated once again. An almost weekly event now under these owners with their useless, pathetic manager.
The club is a laughing stock like never before
And on the same weekend, some of our so called fans shrug this off like it means absolutely nothing to them and even giggle about it like a bunch of little schoolgirls

Way way out of depth this manager. Tbh I think the appointment had a business element to it to try and corner Australia market. Levy all over.
Regarding the letter... Poch wanted to rip up the Champions League final team... we weren't on the verge of a Golden Era. If you recall, our league form that season was shocking and the run to final papered over the cracks. The sentiment of the letter is right but they really need to contextualise a bit... for example, we have spent 700m net and the bin dippers have spent 300m net since that final. We have spent it on youngsters with potential and gambles because we won't pay the wages... the bid dippers have spent it on proven quality in positions of need.
It's starting to feel like we're making up the transfer fees to appease fans at this stage.
Remember the scene in Independence Day when Goldblums father was ranting about how the US governments hides the spending?
"You don't actually think they spent $20,000 on a hammer, $30,000 on a toilet seat, do you?"

Much like the team he supports he came a distant second in a two horse race... singing this shit on the way into the ring, counting his teeth on the way out. WINDOW LICKING GOONER CUNT!!!
Ok Matt, tell us what the net spend of both teams have been since that final... I just made up the numbers to add weight to my argument but happy to be proven wrong.
I don't watch boxing, it's of no interest to me.As I said toMrs Perryman , it was a night of boxing. Don't think too deeply about it.
Just out of interest, which broadcast did you watch it on?

Probably but that's a failure of stadium management.
They were massively helped by Barca giving them £114m for Coutinho (still amazes me today). They then used all that money and added a bit more on top to pick up two excellent players in Allison & Van Dijk for key positions where they were weak.
The way we operate is very different. We got a massive figure for Bale and bought seven players with the proceeds. Quantity over quality.
With hindsight, the only comparable thing would have been us selling prime Dele, Kane or Son for £100m+ after the CL Final then reinvesting it in the same way as Pool - ie. take the fee, add some on top, buy two serious players to improve your first XI. Keep adjusting pay structure to accomodate these better players as you go. Thing is, this is not the ENIC way and it never will be, unfortunately. When we finally did get round to selling Kane (reluctantly) we havent spent the money well.
One thing that gets me is, “structure”.
Do you remember the period around Jol. Levy announcing that we’d get the structure of the club right? Only to rip it all up and chop and change it several times and now we appear to have all the structure of a blancmange?
Total mismanagement on the football side.
Get thee hence, baldo!

I think you underestimate his worth as a business manager.
From a purely financial basis there are probably none better in the Premier League. What he has done from a commercial perspective is impressive.
However, unfortunately the same cannot be said about the achievements of the footballing side that we’re all interested in!
I keep on saying the same thing. It’s the reality I’m afraid.

When you’ve got fans of loads of other clubs saying they can’t believe we allowed it then you know it’s the wrong decision. They’ll take the piss but I bet most scum fans think it ridiculous too.
So you organised a party in a hall owned by a Gooner, would you accept you could not play whatever music you wanted which could include Spurs songs? I doubt anyone at Tottenham even knew the details of the music that is what they proposed. You really do come up with absurd reasons to hate Levy. Are not the main reasons like his income and failure to bring trophies enough?
Why does he need to work? He would be rich enough to live off his riches. However he was a season ticket holder before the purchase and goes to most games. That might be harder to give up as judging by the hatred among supporters, would he be safe in a normal seat?
