Match Threads Tottenham Vs Brentford

[Wheeler Dealer]

Toney apparently at his hearing today about his ban for gambling, could be banned?

They won’t need Toney to beat us

Even if he were I suspect he'd appeal and it would be suspended till that happened.

Season is over for both sides so nothing much to play for. Only thing I want from this game is for Hugo to get minutes so we can give him some love & appreciation.

I know I'm in the minority but would love to hear one last HUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOO ringing around the stadium.

He deserves a send off befitting of the majority of his tenure and top class service - not the short memory of many fans and this season

Any word of anything happening in the stadium? Turning our backs on the play on 56min to mark the amount of days the club have turned their back on their supporters since Conte was sacked, whilst chanting ‘Come On You Spurs’, maybe? Perhaps the crowd pointing towards Levy on a particular minute? (Years since ENIC took over?)

We as fans need to make a statement that can be used in the media if we want to make some kind of impact.

I am a season ticket holder so am part of the problem really, but I refuse to buy anything inside the stadium itself - food, drink, programme etc whilst they are treating their own customers with such contempt. I can buy food and drink elsewhere at places that could do with the trade.

I’m not sure what the best thing to do is in all honesty, but I want to do something rather than nothing. The owners need to be shown up publicly, so I feel by putting the heat on them somehow might do some good. Hey it might even make us a feel a bit better about it all.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the lap of dishonour is halted halfway through or doesn’t go ahead. The levy out chants will probably take it over. By doing this double header, they haven’t thought that aspect through at all. Instead of lots of grumpy punters leaving the stadium, instead they’ve kept us all there to fill the space whilst the other aspects of the day happen. Unless they blast out music to cover the chanting it’s all that will fill the gaps.

Personally I’ll be leaving the match at the final whistle, I’m not hanging about for the lap.

Just became a little easier

Don’t think we’ll be signing Ivan Toney if Harry goes .
8 month ban to Jan 2024…won’t be bothering us on Saturday

 

[philll]

Starting a minute after full time in our match, knowing our luck.

Didn't he admit it? So the ban will stay, it might be the length that is appealed, but wouldn't impact it starting imo.

Ban starts today. Not really an 8 month ban , he will miss 5 months football.

Well, clearly as he's banned. Never listen to me.

Doesn't sound like we will have any positive news re DOF or Manager before this game tomorrow so if game is going badly could make for uncomfortable viewing for Levy and board. Hopefully regardless of result the fans let the board now exactly what most of us think of them

Praise whoever you want that this sorry season is drawing to a conclusion. It's the final home game and we come into it off the back of an insipid performance at Villa where old habits resurfaced again after the optimism garnered from the Palace game. Once more we conceded from the first real attack we faced, once more we put on a showreel of incompetent passing, once more we conceded a second goal following a defensive error and once more we scurried around trying to repair the damage when it was too late. Now a Brentford shorn of Ivan "Gamble Responsibly" Toney rock up at the TH on Saturday for the early kick off. We never seem to play well in this slot and Brentford have had a heck of a season, guaranteeing that they will finish above Chelsea which has made their day. Finally beating us would make them happy too. We got lucky at theirs last season when we got pummelled and still emerged with a 0-0 draw and again this season where we rallied from 0-2 to get a point we scarcely deserved. They will come for us and no doubt Frank will be drilling them on all of our weaknesses and they will seek to exploit them. I think they will have some success in this regard, even without their talisman but I still fancy us to bag the three points in a ding dong derby. Tottenham Hotspur 3 Brentford 2. COYS!

We may have a new Director of Football in the next few weeks, but I think people should relax if they think we're going to have a new manager before (say) July.

Every summer, people read the press speculation and get excited that "something is happening". What's happening is the press needing to generate clicks and keep the story alive with nonsense.

Then the fans get angry because a few weeks have gone by and the club has "failed" to appoint someone, when they had no intention at all of making a formal appointment until they've done some due diligence - which takes weeks, to boil down a short list, select top candidates from it and then negotiate a contract and probably compensation for the current employer.

so if game is going badly could make for uncomfortable viewing for Levy and board. Hopefully regardless of result the fans let the board now exactly what most of us think of them

Personally, I think organising chants, signs and demonstrations is all incredibly childish and self-indulgent. People keep ranting "Levy out", as if he were an employee who could be sacked. He's co-owner of the club and he can't be budged until he chooses to go. People should cheer on the team, wait to see what happens next with the management appointments and stop kidding themselves that they have any leverage.

This is not a nothing game. We need to win our last 2 games to have a realistic chance of finishing 6th - and making Europa league. BHA will have to win 2 of their 3 games to beat us to 6th. (and they Play City and Villa). Personally, I don't think we deserve 6th - but if we can get it playing in Europa League is probably our level ATM.
Although it wouldn't surprise me if we lose to Leads in the last game to give BHA 6th spot. - Fingers crossed we can win our last 2 games - and then bring on next season a fresh with a new exciting manager and a few new players. (CB and AM please to start with)

The club is a shit show and fans are rightly concerned about a repeat of the nuno debacle. I think they have every right to voice their dissatisfaction (with the board / levy).

I don’t think anyone expects levy to ‘go’ but if fan pressure elicits some form of change for the better then it can only be a good thing.

Supporting Tottenham week in week out year on year is the most expensive business in football. It’s not childish to demand at least a degree of value for money.

Exactly this. We spend the most on tickets why shouldn’t expect at least competence at the top.
It’s like paying high end fashion prices for a bag and it having the quality of primark

I’m off to the match soon via breakfast with my son. I’m putting everything about this weird and horrible season behind me, determined to enjoy the day. I actually think it’ll be a decent match and a decent performance today. COYS!

You've made me start to look out for son getting chances from outside the area

I hope we play 4-3-3 today, something like that:
