I

Ignoring that the club CAN'T borrow money to spend on players (ffp rules), yeah, I would hate this club having cities owners. I would rather we were playing in the combined counties league than that.
But as I've said to the irrational stadium denier, I support the club. Not the team. Not the chairman. The club. And the club will always get my support.
It was you who mentioned borrowing money off the owners. So you would still support the club if we had city type owners, But detest it? & you wouldn't celebrate all our titles?

There are more important things than a premier league title . And frankly, if we had cities owners, I would be disappointed in any spurs supporter that didn't feel that any pots were were tainted .
 
Errrrr what??
So if we don’t sign anyone and win nothing Levy is shafting us and is a cunt and we need to invest big money to compete and win stuff.......

But if we do spend big and win nothing, it’s fine because it’s on Poch

Jesus fucking hell
We are pretty far behind city and Liverpool. The gap won’t be closed in one summer. We won’t spend fortunes. 120M max I think.

It’s not levy good or evil and Poch good or evil.
 
In the event we get our targets and fail to win anything, will anyone have the balls to question Poch?
Or will all the signings suddenly be shit and signed above his head?

Ok then he gets Ndombele, Lo Celso, Sessegnon, Wan Bisska and let’s say some attacker and Eriksen and Toby stay.

If we push Liverpool and Man City (City who will still have a stronger squad than us even with that and Liverpool about the same as ours) for the title with 85-90+ points I think that’s fine. We get 70 points or so and obviously his performance won’t have been as good as prior seasons relative to squad resources.

City and Liverpool’s squad power is huge, even with a big window we will be just getting to their level or closer. 2-3 seasons ago and yes this squad with these signings should have won the league and I would have expected Poch to deliver. The level has gone up quite a lot.

So to be clear, failure is fine as long as we spunk loads of money failing and at no point should the manager be looked at

Just what I expected

That’s not what I said. You what to be certain of the league title next season you would need to be signing Messi and players of that standard. Even with a big window we would still be only approaching Liverpool and still be miles off City but we would have a higher chance of winning something.
