We are where we are and just look at the glee of I told you so on some of the posters. Just fcuking shocking

We are not done yet and once again we look at our demise and yet many dismiss or deny the shameful.lack of contribution from Van De Ven and Romero.

We might be really poor but this squad isn't one tbat should be anywhere near the threat of relegation.

It's an awful situation, it hurts like hell and I'm just hoping now.

Signing Frank was not a red flag but keeping him too long was.

We signed players in the summer who mpst were happy with. Some very happy.

There is no joy in this. Nothing to gloat about. Nothing to feel justified about

Last night one of our so-called better players committed hari kiri and yet from so many nothing. Says so much about certain posters.

Its always amazing to me how many people overrate our academy. We rarely ever produce a player worth mentioning. Yet every year people are convinced 3 or 4 of them will become nailed on PL top 6 first 11 players.

Imagine if that was actually ENICS answer to this problem.

Lose our internationals and replace them with championship / league 1 / league 2 quality players.

FFS.

For years people have wanted LEVY OUT!
For years have been seeing on here people saying relegation would be a good way to get rid of ENIC.

Sometimes in life you actually get what you ask for. And when you get it, you realise it’s a bit shit. That could be 26/27 for a few people.

It isn't about heart. These players are genuinely trying their best. Our squad just has little talent. It's around the same level as Palace or Forest, and we have injuries.

Look at some of the players the teams we are in a RELEGATION fight have;

Forest = Murillo, Gibbs-White, Elliot Anderson, Hudson Odoi, Sangare, Milenkovic

West Ham = Wan Bissaka, Diouf, Disasi, Bowen, Summerville, Fernandes, Wilson, Soucek

I've been saying this since December and people thought I was taking the piss. The league has a lot more quality

You could be onto something here. There's a disconnect between how the players see themselves and how the fans see them: the players could very well be giving it their best, so resent the fans who say they're not...

That's a fair point

The players at this stage must be scared and must be wondering where the next win comes from. How could they not be.

I won't pretend to have any answers whatsoever but we are not down yet and as it stands it really looks aa though it will be one from 4 teams, and irrespective of so-called current form, we can still stay up.

I'm not doing that.

I am simoly saying we have lacked leadership since Levy left and whilst the malaise and Levy cannot be necessarily separated, that is different from believing he might have done more once alarm bells started ringing re: Frank.

And might have done more in the winter window.

All moot now of course.

Levy was an employee of ENICHe did their bidding.

But he cared more about THFC than the current lot do. The club was literally his life.

You're looking at it through rose-tinted glasses. He cared about the financials of the club, more than the club itself. He doesn’t give two shits about Tottenham Hotspur Football Club, he only cared about Tottenham Hotspur Ltd.

Yep, agreed.

Levy wasn't perfect but that's perfect as in that people want and anything less isn't that.

But Levy was to the board and caring as Son snd Kane and arguably Davies are to the team. They cared or at least that's the string impression they gave.

We don't have enought of that at this time, on the board or with this group of players,or at least that's how it seems.

You have your opinion I have mine. Learnt a long time ago nobody is changing opinions on here.

Just pointless arguing. We all gave jobs and lives to get on with.

Let’s just be clear. The football club is directly linked to the financial health of THFC Ltd.

If we do down financially they suffer. Emotionally the fans suffer.

If there is one thing we learnt about Levy. He would never let the football club sleepwalk into a relegation battle like we saw this season.
