The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

[DarwinSpur]

In retrospect that might have been the two worst decisions Levy has made.

Poch was definitely burned out after the 18-19 season - but Levy should have made sure Poch was ready to go for the 19-20 season. Extra couple of weeks on holiday or something.

The decision to hire Conte was the absolute worst - not just because it was Conte, but because it showed Levy had no clue about the state of the squad and just assumed a new manager was the answer. Levy has been chasing that bad decision ever since.

Hiring Conte was a master stroke this time last year.

The fact that it's failed - and led to such poor football - is bitterly hard to take.

I'm just not sure I blame Levy for all of that. Part of it for sure but not all of it. And I certainly do t think hiring the most elite manager available in the world shows a lack of care - which is what levy is being accused of by many.

anyway - let's hope we hire the next Pochettino and give them time and money

Thats the thing, Levy needs to give the next guy, whoever it is, the tools to do his job.
Let there be some sort of a rebuild and refresh the squad

Then hold onto the season ticket and don’t spend another penny inside the ground. It’s not the win we want but it’s the only stand we can make. That fuck has weaselled himself into the club so deeply there’s bugger all else we can do.

I point blank refuse to buy any official kit for my lad unless it’s a decent second hand one or dodgy, it’s almost like we’re going to have to starve him out.

Not backing Poch was his single biggest mistake for me. The most successful manager we have had in this era and he never got backed. When we finished 3rd then 2nd we had the perfect chance to really push on and make some top signings. Instead we were satisfied at what we had done and had no ambition to push for more. That was the real sign of what Levy's motives were, when the team had a real chance to be one of the best and win things he was more invested in the stadium.

Levy has built this club to the point he’s now way out of his depth. Just a staggering amount of mistakes, even away from the football side of the club. Plus, there is a silver bullet to this toxicity surrounding the club & a get out of jail with the fans free card starring him in the face & it’s as if he just doesnt see it. It’s staggering & actually feels unlike Levy. Im honestly shocked he hasnt brought Poch back already.

100% spot on. It should have been Levy slung out on his ear instead of Poch. This annoys me so much because Poch unlike the last big name managers cared about the club, he got the club, he understood the club and he changed the ethos of the whole club. It really was unbelievable the job he done and with hindsight with very little help from the board.

WHat is frightening is Levy didn't listen to him or maybe didn't care. It was clear to spurs fans our club had changed because of Poch, he had taken the club to another level, to the brink of becoming best team in England. We were finishing above Arsenal, we were the envy of Man Utd FFS.

For that decision and actions during Poch era alone is why Levy and board should be gone never mind the absolute shit show running the club since.

The atmosphere at games hasn't been great for most of season and particularly last few months with very few spurs / players songs being sung. Given that's the case why is there so few anti Levy / Enic chants? It genuinely amazes me that there's close to none each game.

 

[panoma]

the only way to get rid of DL/ENIC is to boycott the club by all means, e.g. not attending games, not buying merchandise. they don't give a shit at how fans protest, we can only punish them by not giving money to them

This is spot on, but sadly it will never happen.

Our fans are prepared to keep paying top bucks for turgid football and Levy knows this.

Even after Conte lost his way, we’ve played well at home winning five on the spin, and were doing enough, just about, v Brighton for the fans to stay focused on the game.

Even yesterday, the fans wanted to focus on the game, on us getting something from it even after the Sanchez episode.

Who wants to be chanting the Levy out stuff when urging on the team?

Ive seen him for what he is years ago and he simply must go, but when the game’s on I’m not interested.

Seems a lot of fans are not listening

It's not about a lack of care. Obviously Levy wants success, but his methodology for achieving success is misplaced. For Levy hiring expensive, 'elite' coaches is a means to get the most out of a lacklustre squad. In the absence of a strategic vision, proper squad building and planning, it was more convenient and less expensive to hire Mourinho and Conte and get them to try and paper over the cracks.

it takes two to tango. Being honest, I don't think Poch really wants to come back in this mess. If he does come back it's do or die on his career before he might not be able to get a top job anymore. If he takes our gig, flounders he will be stuck taking mid table gigs the rest of his career until he revitalizes his career. If he has been given some info that the madrid job is even remotely an option for him, he will wait to get the proper no from them before coming to us, any one of us would do the same

the thing is, success to levy is just top 4. All he cares about is top 4 because that brings in the most dosh. If we win a carabao cup, does that bring in any extra revenue? nope, he could care less

It failing isn't on Levy for me. Regardless of his many, many, many failures, this squad shouldn't have gone out to Forest, Sheffield United or Milan in the cups and shouldn't have been so poor in the league under Conte.

Agree that top 4 seems to be our ceiling. We do just enough to remain competitive in the top 4 race but it appears our ambition stops there.

Accept the point but isn't the squad we have the fault of levy?!? So many poor players that shouldn't still be here but are because levy has always over valued players when selling which has meant we are forced to hold onto them.

The poor loses this season (and since peak Poch) are due to a mixture of reasons but levy is one of those.

 

[olliec]

Not getting top 4 this season. Cant even beat bournemouth and we should have lost last week. Formation needs to change if Lenglet is out for for remainder of the season.

Which were faults before (and his failure to back Poch still has ramifications) but in the past year he's cut Dele, Ndombele, lo Celso and Reguilon because Conte wanted it.

Fuck off.

I’m ready to ban all non-footballing activities at Spurs until further notice.
