They claim they don't 'boycott' Ali because player recruitment is nothing to do with them. Embarrassing us now.

That seems... unnecessary.
To be fair, I've always thought the trust came across well whenever they've been on the pod. It's a shame to see them put so many fans' noses out of joint on this one.

I think the transfer policy one was trying to be representative of a lot of Spurs fans' complaints on the transfer window (and possibly contacting them about it).
Was surprising to see them come out with a statement about it though. Raising a question about it in the next board-trust meeting would have sufficed, especially given there is no way in hell the club will respond right now.
Not going to go too much into it, but others pointed out politics potentially getting in the way inappropriately. It does seem that perhaps certain members of the trust have that further-left-union-y mentality would doesn't lend itself well to this situation.
Fair enough. It was certainly the 'boycott' aspect that made me feel the politics were creeping in a bit.
Like you said, extreme measures that perhaps demonstrate a lack of judgement more than anything else.

Thanks for the plug.
Ha ha you have Petta defending the indefensible trust and blanchy doing his usual bit for his mistress Cullen. This whole thread is a fucking abortion. DIE, ALL OF YOU XXX
Reading the meltdowns in the transfer window, I’d say it was very reflective of the views of the majority who posted in that thread.
Not that I agreed with the statement or the melts
Rightly, the board made no official response to the Trust or the fans on transfer threads.
I don't know why they continue to put their feet in their mouths.
Agreed the club is nothing without the fans. Daniel Levy is a very rich man he doesn't need the club or the fans.
What circumstances? We made a bid for Grealish and that was turned down. Poch said he was OK, melts on a few forums need to stop thinking they are owed any explanations by the club, they're not.
TV money would dry up overnight if the fans weren't there mate.
It's the passion and commitment of supporters up and down the land that drives the revenue streams.
You can't get away from it. Without the fans football, and Spurs, would become irrelevant and unnatractive.
