No doubt Poch will come under fire for this seasons latest poor performance. But when are Spurs fans going to understand that Levy is the puppet master. He's the one calling the shots.

Does anyone think that Pochettino asked for Vorm, Fazio, Davies and Stambouli? How many lives or chances does Levy have left?

Buying Saha and Nelson, throwing away 3rd...Rednknapp blamed and sacked
Frazer Campbell season...Ramos blamed and sacked
100m wasted....AVB blamed and sacked
Darren Bent season....Jol blamed and sacked

Lets open our eyes. The only recent success we have had is because Redknapp had Levy over a barrel and got the players he wanted. Levy fires Redknapp and assumes more control. Back we go down the table, the club turned into a player farm again.

Im fed up of the club buying players for no other reason than the hope of selling them on for more money in the future. We used to be a football team.

Yes, that nullifies every criticism one could possibly have of Levy. Ever

How many times are you people going to suggest that we have a fucking choice, like he's nothing more than a tea lady that can be given her notice and sent on her way. Do you people actually understand his standing within our club? For fuck sake.

Sounds a bit like a Levy Out sort of thread. Are there none others where could be merged @Archibald&Crooks or would you like another Levy Out thread for your own sexual satisfactions?

Well if he got the players he wanted that meant he wanted Saha and Nelson, so not too sure can blame Levy for that one.

Seeing as I can't be arsed to find the last Levy out thread (and having locked, merged several) I'll take the sexual satisfactions option.

Thanks!

Daniel Levy was only 18 months old when Kennedy was shot, so I'm somewhat dubious of the OP's revelation.

If 'this seasons latest poor performance' is specifically talking about yesterdays result, I think the blame lies squarely with Poch (and the players). I mean in this case its not as if Levy is at fault for:

- Playing four centre backs, and inverted wingers. Leaving us ridiculously narrow and with no pace or penetration in the team.
- A shambolic defence with no leadership or organisation that cannot do the basics right. A season long problem.
- Constantly giving up the centre of the pitch by going in with an extremely light midfield, and ignoring countless defensive midfielder options (Veljkovic, Capoue, Stambouli... Heck even playing Paulinho/Dembele in a cm3).
- Total reliance on 4-2-4 without any sign of a coherent pressing game, leaving us hilariously open.

And I could go on...

If anything we should blame him for picking duff managers. Yeah there might be certain remits when taking the Spurs job but Poch has enough resources available to him.

Ok we all agree Levy should be sacked.
Enic should sell the club etc...

Now we just have to wait.

Let's be honest, in comparison to pretty much every other chairman in the country Levy has done a stellar job.

AVB wanted a team of galacticos and every good signing that we made under Redknapp was obviously down to Levy/Commolli.

Looking at Redknapp's modus operandi in terms of player recruitment, Saha and Nelsen are typical 'Arry the wheeler dealer choices.

How can you say every good signing under Harry was down to Levy? Why are so many of our fans so reluctant to give Harry any credit?

Because most of the signings that built the core of 'Arry's team were signed before he even got here. Modric, Bale, King, Lennon, BAE, Sandro all predated Redknapp, and VDV was a quintessential Levy special.

Now you've done it.
It's going to be, trigger happy, doesn't invest, picks shit managers, dof, interferes with buying players, no trophies in blah blah blah.

Some of it might be deserved, but it's not like we haven't heard it before.

The other side is just as bad, if it wasn't for oil money, 6th richest so 6th place justified, built stadium, built training ground, players wanted to leave, sacking managers deserved blah blah blah

I don't even know what i'm doing here.

Enjoy.
