The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

[thelak]

Going to be ugly scenes at the United game, if he doesn’t bring in reinforcements before then m.

Our fans are so passive though

It's sad that Kane fell on his lap and when I say that I mean to have someone like that come through your academy and rise from an average youngster to the goat is a once in a lifetime thing, and at the end of the day we won nothing and the guys had to go to Germany to achieve what he dreams of.

And I bet this board appreciates none of that and tries to portion all the blame in their minds onto Harry and all the people who let them down.

It's also sad that thanks to the TV money we get he has built up a property empire in our part of North London which will make him a billionaire and his boss a bigger? Billionaire ! And yet it's still not enough, they still won't sell despite knowing that so many just want them gone.

Were stuck with them until someone offers way over what the club is worth because if they can't sell a squad player the chances of them getting a deal for the whole business are slim to none.

First home game of the season Levy should be greeted with chants of "You're just a shit Mike Ashley."

It's actually insane that he's still in a job. Genuinely mad. How he hasnt fired himself is truly extraordinary.

Think if we had any other semi-present owner, he’d have been gone a long time ago. He’s lucked into a position of incredible power, prestige and granted every freedom with no checks and balances and absolutely fucking zero accountability.

He’d never leave that, he’s got it made. He will continue to do the bare minimum to make us just relevant enough until his time is fully up, he gets even richer on our eventual sale and then he’ll move right on along.

There is absolutely no way back for Levy now for me. I loath him and want him to have nothing more to do with our club. We are never winning anything with him. He can’t get it done with a generational player and an absolute goal machine. We have become a joke about winning nothing among other fans, journalists, former players.

I find it hard to believe there are apologists for Levy still among the fan base and on here. He has no winning mentality.

Levy thanks for making us ‘Spursy’ good luck to the new manager, but it’s f****** pointless as he this absolute shitshow shadow hanging over him.

What a dark day for our football club.

fuck of levy

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

I’ve never been particularly strong on the hatred towards Levy, I’ve even felt sorry for him at times.

However, selling the greatest player our club has ever, and will arguably ever produce, on the eve of a new season and leaving it to the player himself to decide on the move, is complete and utter cowardice.

We have a new manager who already has a hard enough job. Levy is trying his level best to make sure he fails. I know he won’t, but I wouldn’t blame Ange in the slightest if he walks. I can’t imagine how insufferable it must be to work for that tosser.

Isn't that pretty much every transfer, unless the selling club force the player to move (which I am glad we aren't doing)?

Personally, I'm not bothered by the timing, we still have nearly 3 weeks of the window left. Proper gutted he is leaving though, but we all knew it was going to happen sometime in the next 12 months.

I just hope we spend the money wisely and quickly.

On a positive note, I really think we won't miss him as much as we think we will with Ange's system. Brighton out scored us last year with Welbeck and Ferguson as their 2 striker options.

The timing is more about the season being upon us rather than how long we’ve got to replace him

I get that, but I personally don't think it matters. We have known there was a chance it would happen and I'm sure Ange has prepared for it. I'm more worried about our defence in those first couple of games than our attack.

 

[spursfan77]

Surely he can’t have any supporters left now?

 

[SirNiNyHotspur]

If selling Kane means the fanbase finally turn on these ****s then it will be for the greater good. I suspect though we’ll have the same apologists in here after another 23 years of the same, telling us how to ‘appropriately’ be angry with anything ENIC, as to why they do that I have no idea because anything other than wanting these ****s out of our club is not for the good of Tottenham Hotspur Football Club…

 

[cookiemonster]

Our fans are so passive though

Liverpool fans wants FSG out

They just spend £100m on a player

Just what is,wrong with our fans

 

[cookiemonster]

There are still a lot

Even here

It seems he unbelievably has.

Mate had to break it to you but nothing will change.

Our fans will turn up, sit on their hands, pay the extortionate fees. continue to have hope but know the likelihood of success is low and the cycle will continue.

The situation was way way worse and more toxic last season and during Nuno/Jose yet aside from a few songs here and there and the odd protest with about literally 5 people, nothing changes.

FWIW I hate that it’s come to this with Kane and fully blame Levy and his bad decisions for that but lately we’ve made some good signings, we’ve hired an exciting manager who fits the club really well and we are starting a new exciting chapter so I think most fans will focus on that.

If we’d let Kane go for free to a PL rival or we let him go having not made any signings this summer whilst still having conte or Jose in charge and no plan or direction I think then our finally might just finally have snapped in big numbers but there are some positives right now so sorry but I don’t see the crowd turning and tbh I hope they don’t, I hope they get behind Ange and the team.

If we don’t sign anymore players there will be a toxic atmosphere but I hope we will sign a good 3 more of decent quality (Operation Kane) and if so I think we will be just fine.

The likelihood of success under Levy isn’t low, it’s zero. Sign 3 players, sign 10 players, we have signed shit loads of players we go nowhere and cycle just goes round and round. Good luck to the new manager he will need it.

 

[vinsomer]

It’s like someone here told when Conte left. Any success Tottenham might have will be despite Levy, not because of him. Somehow i’m looking forward for this season, mostly because of Ange who just feels like the one. But for me Levy’s legacy will always be this taint

 

[ultimateloner]

It’s subjective I suppose, and we’ll all have our own ideas about it. For me, it’s not prioritising the league over domestic cups so as to qualify for the Champions League with no intention of trying to win it - by which I mean investing in a team capable of challenging for that honour, or the premier league title. I appreciate we won the league cup under ENIC in 2008, and I did enjoy my day out at Wembley (less so for all the FA Cup semi-finals since ‘91) but I don’t really count that either, as it’s very much an outlier than an indicator.

I guess it boils down to a feeling that trying to win things is a secondary consideration at best - and that’s counter to my relationship with sport. You can never guarantee anything with any sport, and that’s what’s so great about it - but you can at least try.

Our financials are very healthy, we could have stretched them a bit to build a team around a generational talent. We might still have come to this point, and we might not have won anything on the way, but we’d still have a better team.

As it is, I think our cautious prudence will prove costly - I don’t believe our board understands this, and never will.

I share your view that with DL we are only aiming for top 4 and nothing else. However I have the opposite sentiment to you. I aim lower and feel content easier.

For starters as you will probably agree, PL is getting bigger and stronger backers. They are willing to invest ridiculously for on-field success and as a club we have to put up or shut up. It's obvious which direction DL will go and I don't blame him. Tifo had a recent video about the merits of selling Kane and the CL money isn't sufficient to fund the sort of fees being thrown around. You are looking at 30m for a 16-round finish. That's 1/2 of Ndom's transfer fees. Winning the PL has become too expensive a dream to chase for the current owners.

Leeds and Leicester are both examples of how dreamers fail when you over-stretch your resources. We don't want to end up like that.

For me, it's not such a bad thing that we are only looking to be on the same table as the big boys. Survival first, glory later if ever.
