All our problems emanate from the top.

All the players know there's no real ambition from the owners.

No wonder they're all not giving their absolute everything.

Its the owners who are the problem. They've ceeated a culture whereby winning isn't that important.

I suspect they have their board meetings, which have an agenda something like this.

Minutes of the last meeting

Hotel build update.

Commercial Update (Stadium)

Event Planning 2026 forecast.

Community Engagement, social value

Sustainability and carbon net zero

F1 Partnership update

NFL update.

AOB ( to include women’s team and men’s first term by exception reporting )

Football is a footnote.

You're bored of Premier league football because we're shit at it.

Coping mechanisms are kicking in all over the forum.

Nah, the current brand of football dominating the league is unwatchable half the time.

No individual flair, no amazing goals, no real passing goals, just uniform physicality and direct balls with time wasting and cheating at set pieces

It’s pure communism, drag everyone down to the same technical level to fit the same tactical model. Teams may as well play in the same kit as each other because half the time they are almost identical to watch
 
Looking at our fixtures the only thing giving me any drop of hope is that by the time we play Sunderland, Brighton, Wolves, Leeds, Everton and maybe even Villa their seasons could be over and they could have one foot on the beach, firmly cemented in midtable with Villa possibly having secured UCL and be in the Europa League semis.
 
Some posters just want a chance to spout their anti - ENIC sh!t.

What will they do when ENIC sell-up?

Name the players we should sign? Nothing is ever put forward.

Everything is designed to slate ENIC, whereas those who care are simply concerned about survival.

Pathetic group.

That’s not it. I’m bored because it’s ruined. Ruined by VAR and poor officiating. You can’t even fucking celebrate goals with any certainty now. The whole point of the fucking game is ruined.

It’s shit because I go and I have to watch people videoing corners on their phones rather than cheering the team. I call them out, I say, you know we won’t score if you video it, and usually they stop.

People are still ordering pints at the start of second halves in the stadium. They stay on the concourses and watch games on the tvs there rather than go in.

People want to video themselves chanting by europes longest bar but get them in the stadium and they re quiet as fuck because they can’t send it to their mates.

It’s fucking shit man.

You get the phones everywhere I'm afraid. I go to lots of Whitecaps games and it's the same here. Sadly, looks like the last year of them though because of Vancouver City's greed.

Grow up ffs.

Why shoot the messenger?
All of that resentment should be aimed only towards the club hierarchy and sporting manager.

Media is a mirror and all the shit the club gets is 100% earned by utter incompetence.

Oh don't worry, I know exactly where the blame lies... at the gold guilded gates and Bahamas based Super yacht of our owner, the repugnant offspring his dusty spunk has spawned from his rancid old crusty cock, and the pathetic imbeciles they have employed and saddled us with for 25 years....
Levy was the poster boy, the Osama Bin Laden focal point if you will for the ineptitude and flagrant disregard that was going on behind the scenes....

But the media don't simply report it, they revel in gleefully stirring it up at every opportunity.
The fact we GIVE them so many opportunities to stick the knife in isn't lost on me....

But the problem is, making it a "them & us" siege mentality doesn't really help, 'cos right now, I despise 'us' as much as any Media outlet joyously revelling in our slow, painful demise!
 
All I believe is this.

For now, all and every bit of energy should be geared towards helping the team stay up.

If you are a real undiluted fan of this great club, you/we don't want to watch this club go down.

For me that would be an absolute disaster. No,it wouldn't be life and death but it would hurt so much. An irretrievable situation, beyond words. Gone from that elite group. Banished to also-rans and second-raters. It would be worse than we can all comprehend.

That group who are simply and uniformly anti-ENIC should honestly take their energy and fcuk off.

Let's stay up and then change and channel our direction accordingly.

Now is not the time for being more anti-ENIC than you are pro-Spurs.

If that group can't see it, at best it's shame on them.
 
Tottenham's owners are planning to rip up the club's rigid wage structure before a major overhaul of the squad this summer if the team avoid relegation. - guardian.
