Disagree , I think the most important thing in football is entertainment & that is shaped by how you are run which does include money , it’s unavoidable.

For fans of a club entertainment is mostly about feeling happy with how things are . I doubt there are many who are happy with the current situation at Spurs . Regarding the transfer shenanigans of rolling sports news , it’s a bit weird to get wound up by the faux drama.

I agree that should be the issue, but go read the transfer thread, any of them - the amount of people who get wound up by the faux drama and the price of transfers and wages is astonishing. A number of poster who frequent this thread especially.
 
The issue is Levy. He's been in the job too long and is getting worse at it. The club needs new leadership so we can make better overall decisions, like Liverpool have done the past ten years. The Ange debacle is a new low, that such an obviously unqualified coach has been given so much rope, and heading for 20+ losses in the league, with multiple players going backwards in their development.

Unfortunately, I am resigned to the fact that Levy isn't going anywhere, so I just hope against hope that he strikes gold when he puts on the blindfold, throws the dart at the board and chooses our next coach.

I agree. We need a new leadership and a way of investing our money better - more isn't even the issue many point it out to be be.
 
Did we actually make a profit in latest accounts? If we made a loss get rid of romero for big money.

Need to offload romero imo. Get good money for him. Richarlison as well.

So you want to sell players to plug the financial losses?
Are we about to "do a Leeds" ?
Fans would revolt if we sold players and didn't spend every penny of those fees on the squad.




I'm pretty sure all these finances are just smoke and mirrors. They can use numbers from here there and everywhere to paint whatever picture they want.
I've heard a few people talking about putting stadium depreciation down as a loss.

It's not a used car. Properties are assets and don't depreciate in the same way liabilities, like cars do. Add to that the fact this is a commercial use property, IE, its sole purpose is to make money through use and the money making opportunities are increasing.....

You have to just tell yourself that until they’re holding up the shirt it’s just noise or if it’s a known star , it isn’t happening. 👍
 
Yeah. I’d add “eventually”, or, “sooner or later”, but yeah.

He expects to leave if we don’t get our act together. And sadly, it’s more, “Tottenham are a stepping stone”.

I fully expect Dragusin agent to pipe up again soon

I wonder what Cup he’ll win when he leaves ?

The stadium is being depreciated on the accounts though. I presume it is all perfectly above board. Yes it isn't actually dropping in market value at anything like the stated rate, so it's a useful way to keep tax liabilities down, I presume.
