Sandro didn't predate Harry. Scott Parker was very, very important to how we played in 2011-12. Defoe, Crouch and Kranjcar all had key roles when we finished 4th in 2010.

Pretty sure we agreed a deal for Sandro before Harry arrived. He certainly didn't have any say in that transfer. Agree with the rest of your post though.
Anyway, I'm a bit tired so...

I think Levy has done a good job, and I don't mind him continuing, but rather under a different majority owner.
The two faults I could attribute him are 1) he results of the transfer window in January 2012, and 2) every single managerial decision from and inclusive of firing Redknapp, through firing AVB, to hiring Pochettino.
At the end of the day, I wouldn't be surprised if the guidance of one Mr. Lewis was too heavy – and too wrong – in several aspects of these issues.

Nope, definitely in Harry's reign. Although Sandro was rumoured to be Broomfield's find, and Harry had never seen him play in the flesh. But then Harry appointed Broomfield, so it's splitting hairs.

Unfortunately , this isn't the amnesty thread...so I'm gonna have to just risk it .
In my unamnestied opinion , I was with Levy through every managerial appointment since Jol . There was a logic to every one to my mind .
However the player transfers or non transfers have been horrendous at times . Someone mentioned Jan 2012 , was that the transfer window Levy nadir ?...or was it starting the CL season with a depleted forward line , I forget which was worse .
...or maybe in Hoddle days , the bragging about the note Ronaldo sent saying no thanks...

Your talking complete bollocks rednapp signed Parker, gallas, Kaboul, crouch, Defoe , palacios, all solid signings and Saha and Nielsen were not his choices (according to him)

The only managerial appointment that Levy has made which I disagreed with was Pochettino.
The biggest issue I've had with Levy is the lack of extra investment that could have pushed up a level, especially directly after we qualified for the CL.

Yes!
Just when I was a bit bored with football in general and particularly the same old Spurs shite, I popped into Spurs Chat scraping around for some original thought and BOOM only went and lucked my way into a Levy Out thread!
What a lucky boy I am, my entertainment is sorted for the next couple of days of reading definitely not repetitive mud-slinging between two diametrically opposed and irreconcilable groups!

If only we'd have pushed the boat out for Phil Neville, he could still be here. Or not.

Never Scholar. The man who ensured that when the Premier League took off and the big guns established their position we were too poor to go to the party. I am not sure we will ever recover the position we once had.Oh how I yearn for the days of Sugar. Scholar even.

Well done.
Its been coming for a while but you finally made my ignore list.
You make out like we were lucky to get top 4 twice with Harry in charge and he held us back.
