To email or not

[WhiteStripe]

I won't be adding the emails to this thread as the conversations with DL were in private and I assured him that they would stay that way, but as usual, on this site, all bar the "elite" half dozen or so, seem to be doubted when they say something. If any of the mods had put my message on the board you wouldn't be questioning it's authenticity would you.
Take it or leave it, whatever

I was only joking dude, I believe you as there is no reason to make it up....sorry.

Edit-Damn....I wasted my 1000'th post on that!

below is a letter i have written and i am very close to sending to THFC, i was just looking for feed back and wonder if you guys would like anything to add to it? im sick of our pretty boy players being more concerned with their looks, their lack of passion and im generally question if the club actually cares for its fans??

any feedback however positive or negative would be great!


Dear Tottenham Hotspur Football Club

As you can probably guess i am a slightly disgruntled fan at this moment in time. I pour at least £100 a season into your coffers as i only buy direct from the spurs online shop. I wish i could go to matches but i live across the water in northern ireland so its very hard to get tickets, flights and accomodation booked. So there is a desire for me to spend more money on my beloved club.
I am a member of a fans website www.spurscommunity.co.uk of which i'm sure you have heard of and/or have contact with. A vibrant community of spurs supporters from all over the globe, who have their own fears about where our great club is heading.
I am not writing to complain, i have no problems with the website or the shop. It is with the players that i am most disgruntled with, never have i seen a bunch of talented players, play with no passion, no heart, no grit. After being tackled they are more concerned with fixing their hair. This irritates me as it is the last thing they should be concerned with! They should be getting up and chasing after every ball.

It is a general query of mine if such emails of mine are shown to Mr Levy,

yes they are
Mr Ramos or indeed the players? Do they even care what we fans think? As it says on the contact us page of the official spurs website "Tottenham Hotspur is proud of its relationship with fans and constantly strives to improve supporters' match day experience and day-to-day interaction with the Club"
I ask are you really? Or are you more concerned that we fans pour our hard earned cash into your pockets??

Sending emails like this is pretty pointless IMO. yes we are disgruntled, i think they get that from all the boo-ing that goes on at the Lane these days. I think they are equally disgruntled as well with the players.

Whitestripe's idea is the best, if we want to help our team we should be sending emails of encouragement, not emails complaining how badly they are playing.

good idea, well said

I agree that the letter will probably, at best, only be read by a low-level functionary who will reply with an anodyne non-event of an e-mail, just to fob you off.

wrong, totally wrong

If the fans really want to elicit change, then the only real way of doing it is to hurt Levy where he's most sensitive: in his pocket. And you do that by boycotting matches. Unfortunately, that hurts the players because they won't get the encouragement that they need.

It's a vicious circle, and it's how the fan is trapped and powerless. Because they want to remain loyal they keep contributing to a problem that shouldn't elicit any loyalty.

I have had several email conversations with Daniel Levy and I'll tell you now that you will get a nice polite reply back from Jonathan Waite who will assure you that Daniel has read your message but in reality he won't actually give two fucks what you think.
When he finally started to reply to me personally, I was left feeling that I was merely being paid lip service and that he really didn't give a fuck what I thought.

but, he replied to you personally, so he does read the letters and mails.
So, best of luck and I hope you get somewhere with it.

Dear Spurs,

Sort your shit out! When you come out the tunnel, tilt your head back 50 degrees and gaze up at that cockeral. Then turn your head 90 degree's left and then right, then turn and look behind you - see all them singing fans? See all them wearing YOUR names on the backs of their shirts? Singing YOUR songs?

These people have been through hell and back supporting this side at times and now, when we have more talent amongst our squad than we can pratically shake a stick at, we're propping up the table.

Ramos might be the man, Gus might be the man, christ, Terry V might be the man - all i care is that you ALL know you can play better, you ALL know you aren't a team that should be bottom of the table and you ALL KNOW that you need to suck it up, push out your chest and remember that this is a club with supporters that admire PASSION and COMMITMENT, not big wages and fancy coloured boots.

Pull your socks up boys, we need some balls here - COYS!

Man-love

Do yourself a favour and don't send it mate.

a) It's not very well written
b) You state nothing more than conjecture and opinion
c) Do you really want to email the club to complain about David Bentley's hair?!
d) Why do you need to mention SC? I don't think you have done this,but I hate when one fan decides he can speak for the "general" opinion of Spurs fans.

appreciate the input
is it not the general consensus that we here are not happy with the pretty boys and their more concern with their appearance. none the less i appreciate the criticism

if ramos made all the players shave their head it would sort out this issue and may promote team-unity. except i think modric would tell you to fuck off
