Tanguy talking Spurs:

You're here now, you might as well...
The only way they do is if the extra revenue from that stadium goes into improving the football team, do you disagree with that?
50 million? I don't think anyone will be paying that, I was thinking more like 25 million. He isn't going to sign another contract at Fulham, so they need to sell.Well as far as maybe's go... .You might be right.
What I'm slightly baffled by tho is the notion that somehow we can't spend prime dosh on AWB (who had a great season) at RB, yet are no-one blinks an eye at us splashing £50m-odd on Ryan 'maybe' Sessngon LB.
Innevitably, we'll see how things pan out... That's for obvs.
When you tell, meaning or not, someone to kill himself over a football opinion you are no longer right I don’t care. Come on
....But if we can't "compete financially" then what do you propose? ....FFS, this isn't high level maths at play here!?!?!?
Withdrawing your support is most substantial comment you've offered on the matter so far.
No, I just find your incessant hollow whinging; tiresome... Esp. as you've as good as admitted that your fandom depends on a spend up.
...And I wasn't going to bat for anyone. Your comments condoned his position on the matter and your lack of self-awareness 'amused' me (and still does).
apparently ENIC have never taken a divvyI don't know why comments like that are ridiculed , Levy hasn't built the stadium for the fans he's built it to generate greater revenue , the additional revenue will be greater than the repayments. It's a sign of ambition but what sort of ambition ? To make more money for himself or to make more money to improve the playing staff or both.
Well they were both childish but it’s some bad taste shit nonetheless. Banter is fun but this ain’t banter.I've not knowingly condoned such a comment.
The sentiment ofGOAT 's posts long pre-dates said swipe though and I think it's all a bit disingenuous of
Incomplete_usernam to play that humble card at this late juncture considering he was perfectly happy to throw a few jabs with goat, myself and others until until then; only to now conceed that what he was accused of is in fact correct.

Bloody hell, are there any threads on this forum that don't descend into ridiculous arguments and name calling?! I work with special needs children, they behave better than some adults do here and those kids can barely control themselves!
We're supposed to be on the same side so can people grow up and start acting like it? Some of you should be ashamed of yourselves because you're making a fool of yourselves and ruining this forum for everyone else.
Correct. Not what you wrote above though. Thanks for the clarification.
A) Yeah, probably, because you know after 30+ years of supporting spurs I would just walk away...
What's with this black and white viewpoint on shit? You're basically saying people can't criticise our owners if they fail to spend in the transfer window or get good business done? lol.
Is there any scenario in your mind where Levy or ENIC should be held accountable?
B) I am also happy with our owners, I never claimed otherwise, I have simply said that if we don't find a way to operate so we can compete with the clubs above us financially then we will likely remain as we are for the remainder of their tenure, that doesn't mean I would stop supporting the club if that was the case, I would be here even if we were relegated multiple times but that doesn't mean I wouldn't be disappointed or see it as a huge missed opportunity for us to push on even more.
You have never explained the alternative, unless your alternative is "Well if it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen and we just accept it"
That's not an alternative, that's defeatism.
When have I ever said that? You really do love misquoting people and putting words in their mouth.
For someone who talks about strawman arguments you sure so like to engage in them a lot.
Please quote me and tell me where I have ever said I would leave the club if we don't get any transfers?
Will I be pissed off? Yes. Will I complain and say that we need to find new owners? Yeah, probably because it would be fucking criminal to not sign players after our best manager in my lifetime is essentially begging for signings and we are on the cusp of something truly special.
But if Poch left and we did a freefall down the table whilst Levy and ENIC remained in charge I would still be here supporting this club regardless, even if we didn't sign another player for 20 fucking years because I support and love the club.
The owners, players and manager all come and go.

£10m punt and loaned back for 19/20, probably. Need to do that at least once a window - we can’t afford to wait for everyone to come good elsewhere and then pay £50m+ for them a couple seasons later.Not a fan of this. He was sub at fucking Leeds. Seems like another pointless signing.
