Levy's ground work includes
Appointing Santini
Appointing Hoddle
Appointing Ramos
Appointing AVB

All catastrophic bad decisions. He fell on his feet with Martin Jol and Harry Redknapp as emergency appointments then sent us backwards when he tried to upgrade them.

I've heard many times he didn't want Poch, he wanted LVG who would have been gone inside 2 seasons.

Levy gets far too much credit from far too many people.
If Poch has enough, fully, fully expect us to drop out of the top 4 for a number of seasons, if not indefinitely.
So all the bad stuff was down to his decision making and anything good was blind luck...dunno about Levy ever getting too much credit, but I think you've gone a bit far in the other extreme...
 
"Sceptical posters aren't as much fans as those that aren't" ✔
"Sceptical posters are probably Arsen*l/City etc. fans" ✔
"Sceptical posters think we should sign just anybody" ✔
"Sceptical posters don't care if we break the bank" ✔
"Sceptical posters want us to do a Fulham/Leeds etc." ✔
"Sceptical posters should have more faith in our youth players" ✔
"Remember where we were 10 years ago" ✔
"The stadium debt means we can't buy players" ✔
"When Pochettino says X he really means Y"✔
"Chill, Levy's got this" ✔
"It isn't like Football Manager you know"
"FFP" ✔
"Fuck off, you don't understand football" ✔

etc, etc.

All arguments that were repeatedly trotted out last sumer and again in January. All arguments that have been repeated over and over again this summer. And yet somehow it's only the sceptical posters who are tedious, who drone on, who are spoiling the board and so on.

It's skeptical.
 
I actually think it’s quite cool that Rooney might come back as a player coach.

Say what you want about him but he fundamentally loves the game and always wants to play. He almost feels like a player from a different era in that regard.
It’s going to be funny watching his interviews. He can barely string a sentence together, and when he does it’s all “eer eer eer eiiiiiiiii “

I’ve seen brighter eclipses

Looks like you've hit the ground running. As if we didn't have enough whiners...

Welcome.
 
He’s as constructive as any of us are on here. Not in the slightest.

We all post shit on here. Some are wildly positive about the club as a whole. Fine. Good for them. Some are negative. That’s fine too. All opinions.

I don’t think the ignore function is the answer as it does fuck up the flow of the board, but you can always choose not to engage. You don’t have to be right all the time. There’s a few posters on here I just can’t be arsed with, so I try not to engage with them.

An example would be trying to get Bazali (can’t seem to tag properly) to admit Sissoko has the poise, balance and technique of a disabled Shetland pony. That’ll never happen. He’ll never convince me that he’s the second coming of Zico, so we just don’t bother. Try it. Who gives a shit if a stranger disagrees with you?


Sissoko has the poise balance and technique of a disabled Shetland pony called Zico!
