I've been critical of Harry in the past but that team tonight tried everything it could but was just missing that something .

As anyone who has ever been a manager knows , you never really get the chance to manage . You just have to make the best of the cards you have been dealt , shifting sands and interfering superiors .

Professional football people will be able to see that Harry was seriously short changed by Levy and he will be hot property come the end of the season . We will be lucky to have him next season and personally I will be surprised if he doesn't walk in the Summer .

We can all point to matches we could have won but it is six transfer windows since Berbatov has left and the club has been unwilling to replace him .

We have truly spoiled the ship for a halfpenny worth of tar .

What is worse is knowing that you spend through the nose for your tickets but the funds will not be released to mend matters in the summer .

Harry has spent over 40 million on the strikers that he wanted!

You have no idea whether the club was willing to put money up for a striker. You're guessing.

Harry said in January 'the Chairman's made money available'. Who knows what we were willing to spend?

Yeah terrible of Levy to get VDV for him, try to get Adam(the horrible shit) when Harry failed in the transfer window and tried to get just about any Spanish striker going with a wheel barrow full of gold bars on the last couple of days of the transfer window.

Not quite 40 but good point nonetheless

40 million to clear up Levy's cock ups to buy people who would hit the ground running to keep us in the division .

I'm sick of making excuses for Levy .

Hopefully 'Arry stays on for a while yet as he knows that he's only a couple of decent strikers away from a first class team. Whether Dan the Man will give him the money or whether we are able to pay their wages is another thing entirely but after seeing this season fritter away hopefully Levy now understands that he has to buy the players 'Arry wants and not to continue to force players on him, a la Martin Jol, as he and that nitwit Comolli did.

If you really take the bucket off your head you might be able to see things better, really.
Have you got anything to back up that Levy has shortchanged Harry is that just your opinion, really?

Hang on. Levy's cock ups? So when we don't spend money it's Levy's fault, when we do it's Harry cleaning up Levy's mess.

I'm getting the distinct impression that no matter what Levy does you'll find a reason to hate him

Redknapp wasted £40m on dross like Defoe, Keane and Crouch.

He then hesistated and was indecisive with his next £40m and missed out on everyone completely (twice).


Levy is a hero. The best thing to happen to the club since Burkinshaw.

Can I just say, Critisism is probably constructive at this point but people need to be aware of facts.

During the Summer, we were dicked about by Luis Fabiano. This boy was going to sign. Harry met and lunched with the guy and his people. This deal was as good as done. Fabiano Fucked THFC over, for a new contract.

During January, Harry was clear from day one. GET ME ANDY CARROLL! Did it happen? and yet there were bids flying around on deadline day (pr stunt if you ask me) for anything from the spanish league that has scored a goal!

Yes Harry wanted Neville, Yes Harry wanted Parker! Yes Harry wanted Carroll!

No Levy didnt want Neville, No Levy didnt want Parker enough and BIG FAT NO did Levy want Carroll!

continue...

Cheers for the info, but obviously this is speculation as far as most people will be concerned, so we can't assume this is exactly how it went down
