Management Why are the club not calling out the PGMOL?

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Whilst I don’t think it’s realistic that it’s INTENTIONAL on the part of the ownership (incompetence more likely), I think the statistical chance of all the injuries and bias referreeing decisions happening all together is too impossible.
If it makes it sounds like a Woolwich incel conspiracy theorist so be it, but I’m now convinced there must be some betting ring that’s got us going down.
I am of the opinion that there is bias against us by refs,Var, media, Sky and the whole bloody bunch. As for the reason I’m puzzled….we have always been a club that has fostered good football, until a few years ago we had contributed most players to the England team, we have never been a club to raise a fuss to the football authorities. When I think about all those points the Jewish scenario does make some sort of sense. If that is true let’s hope recent events in Golders Green gain some sympathy this weekend.

Telling me no-one in our management team isn't seeing this and at least raising an inquest?

If this had been Romero instead of Gabriel he would have seen the red card no doubts...

I don’t think they see it because I don’t think we have enough footballing brains in the club. I think our board are too focused on the business side and if they’re seeing the same stuff us fans see then they don’t understand it. They should be all over this, but I don’t think they know how.

They're must be a bunch of idiots then because all they need to do is send a fucking email to the PGMOL :D
 
It may be a conspiracy theory of mine but I believe the Premiership want a big story, and there isn't a bigger one than Spurs going down. I accept that refs and even VAY get things wrong, but the list of poor decisions and the fact we never get penalties is beyond bad luck

Especially with the other main story being City winning it for the umpteenth time and the darlings bottling it yet again. This is all they have left.
 
Gary Neville: "It would be very good for the Premier League if Tottenham get 𝐑𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐃. From a competitive point of view, it would be great to see Leeds United stay up, to see Sunderland stay up."
What a brainless argument. Besides, he mentioned 2 teams that are basically safe anyway.
For the aspiring top-teams it is, of course, a good thing that Spurs get relegated because that means less competition for certain players (and if Spurs won't get them their interest will drive their prices up), and if Spurs stay up they will be seen as a contender for a top 6 spot next seeason...
 
Don't think it's a conspiracy, but for everyone that says "every club feels the same about refs" why do we statistically have the most yellows per foul and, by a distance, the least penalties per touches in the box in the entire league? I don't buy that's all solely because of our players or tactics.

There are stats to back up the fact we've been refereed harshly this season and it has (likely) had a material impact on our points tally that could lead to us getting relegated.

Whatever the reasons are: bad luck, Romero's reputation, unconscious bias - we quite literally have suffered more than most teams so it's not "the same for everybody".
I don’t think we do have the most yellows per foul. It’s Chelsea. We look like we are second. Sunderland are around one yellow over the course of 34 games behind us, as are Bournemouth. If that’s the case, are we in a position to say that Chelsea are being treated even worse than us and they should be marching upon POGMOL?
 
Ha.

Nah. My info is that Levy and Stavely want to buy out ENIC.

However, the funding was coming from QATAR. So I’d assume that deal is dead now.
My info says that Staveley won’t ever see another Riyal or Durham as long as she’s got breath. I’ve been told that PIF are less than impressed with the Geordie pup they bought and her name is mud in the GCC now.

Last I heard, she was pimping herself around south east Asia, presumably having loved the region long time.
 
I think us being such a "banter" club for social media plays in to it. Theres no way the refs aren't on twitter etc and see all this stuff

Paddy power would have about half as many tweets if they didn't have us to talk about
