Because he owns Enic along with Joe Lewis?
I agree. I appreciate what levy has done for the club but some of his decisions have been baffling he HAS to take some of the blame for where we currently are at the moment. That said whats to say the next person who comes in as chairman will piss the club up the wall?
I just think he almost needs an impartial advisor
What if Sherwood has been advising him this whole time? Since day 1!
End of Season 2002-2003: Sherwood says Hoddle should be sacked for the club to progress

Sept 2003: Hoddle Sacked
Maybe Sherwood was given oracle status back then? And gave the nod for all the managers & signings since?
It's all down to the Shermeister!
An added bonus for people who want the full mind=blown reality

AVB walks off and says nothing meanwhile Dimmy with a 500K or is it 1m £ pay off is busy aimiing shots at the players and board while going on talk shows..classy
Honestly, I couldn't give a shit right now.... He clearly doesn't!!
As long as the books balance, who cares about a 5-0 drubbing at home, so soon after a 6-0 raping away!!
Until the Russians or Arabs turn up, we're playing 2nd fiddle with the other 17 teams.... only we're not as good as them, and have sold our soul long ago!
We haven't quite been the same since ArseAnal shat in our lasagne...

He may have his faults but Jesus NO.
Why should Levy go? He backed AVB when many said he would pocket the Bale money, he has backed just about every manager..
The only reason I would want him sacked is if he doesn't sack AVB.

simple really at the end of last season all we really needed to get better was a better striker to link up with Bale
we didn't need more money and were financially sound, Levy decided to give in to Bales requests and ship him out
Benteke, Suarez, Rooney all got told they were staying end of
fuck it Levys been here ages and we've stopped progressing so it's time to either accept or position of CL feeder club or roll the dice
So you are proposing that the man who just got £86M for one player and spent £120M on half a dozen additions to the squad, is the root cause of the team being unable to string a coherent performance together?
Just what else does Levy have to do to justify that suggestion, do an abramovich and dictate team tactics as well?
This club got what its supporters wanted - that OLD tosser Redknapp sacked (despite having gotten us into europe twice (- one time due to circumstance) and having us play the best football I have seen at WHL since the 60's)
and he got the new Portugeezer wunderkind - despite all of the signs writ large from his tenure at Chelski -
and you are asking the man who granted you your wishes to be sacked?
Fantastic rationale.

Because joe is like us, a Spurs fan.
Suarez and Rooney don't look lacking in motivation and incentive do they? and Benteke started the season in fine form before his injury.
We regularly cave in so players know all they have to do is kick up a fuss and Levy will submit to their wishes. We will never progress further if we keep selling all our best players and Levy stays in charge of managerial appointments, that much is clear to me now. We had a PRICELESS player on our books and sold him at the drop of a hat.
You however are a gifted intellectual, with all the charisma and grace of a prince charming.
I'd be in the directors box popping off shots with my AK
good luck getting close to me with a knife lol
It is like with the FA isn't it? Succesive manager after manager. they continue to refuse to address the problem of grassroots football and english players lacking technical ability. At spurs we keep going down the path we have done over the last 10 years. AVB will be gone but who is going to come in to clean up the mess baldini and levy have made?.
in 2017, I can picture it out now, eriksen and lamela flying and scoring goals and all we need is a fcking defender in january to tighten up our defence.Guess what levy will do?, probably buy another striker. The guy is immune to logical and rational planning.
We will probably still have that clown les ferdinand teaching them how to not kick a ball and fans whinging about 60 year old defoe being on the bench and how 4-4-2 is the way forward.

Levy is told by the owners what to do with regards to the clubs objectives, it's then up to him to set a strategy in place and execute that strategy in order to reach the objectives laid out by the owners.
The only thing Levy is culpable for in my eyes is hiring the wrong man for the job. I would be surprised if it were Levy getting rid of our star players, no way would that be sanctioned by anyone else other than the owners.
Under Levy we have seen a continued upward trend in our league position.
I think it's time to accept we have reached our natural upper limit in terms of regular league positions - sometimes we will over achieve and get 4th, sometimes we will be where we deserve to be in 5th-6th other times we will under achieve.
No club is ever going to be a consistent top 4 club with a 36k stadium or a rich sugar daddy coming in.
For me, overall, Levy has done a good job with two or three obvious big mistakes, but, we have improved massively since he came in.

Like Carlito says, he owns part of the club, so he's not going to get the heave ho. And really as many others have said, despite the mistakes we have moved forwards as a club since he took over. To be honest were it not for Abramovich and Sheikh Mansour skewing the league with their dirty money, then we would have likely progressed even further.
