Club Statement 19 Nov 19 - Pochettino leaves

[Spurs 1961]

Just don’t let Mourinho anywhere near my team. Not sure how many games I will go to now and season ticket renewal stays in doubt. But we will see

Look at the date.

Heartbroken. Whilst we can all understand how we have ended up here, the questionable tactics, quotes, flirtations with other clubs and the poor form over the last 10 months, this is still utterly gut wrenching and it's very hard to even speak about this right now.

Poch brought so much to the Club, exceeding expectations over a tough period. He was an exceptional manager for us and an exceptional human being. The words Tottenham sack Poch are alien to me. They are sickening. I'm so upset its come to this.

An understandable decision, but an utterly disappointing one.

Thank you Poch for all you did for us. I love you.

 

[DiamondLites]

Gutted it came to this, but absolutely the right decision when you look at the big picture. Poch has had a massive hand in his own downfall, yes you can point the finger at Levy and the players but ultimately his own stubbornness and mixed messages and generally odd behaviour in the media are the biggest contributing factor

 

[buckley]

Having looked in detail at our performances since last jan ( Fulham away) I have been a massive pro Poch man but I now realise that it would have been remiss of the board not to get rid of Poch.
Take away the champions league and we have been abysmal and if it is Mourinho I will as I have done with all spurs managers will be in full support . As for the playing style I am not going to pre judge lets wait and see .

 

[Sid Tottenham]

We've had 12 semi finals in Levy's tenure, you telling me it's his fault that we didn't win more than one trophy?

12 semi finals great but people are using that stick to beat up on the managers who won nothing.
Pochettino gave us 4/5 of the best years since probably burkinshaw we won nothing and you no what he done it despite of levy
We punched well above our weight.
What now a divided fan base?
Also we’ve won nothing and who’s the common denominator in all this?

 

[Mr Pink]

Just don’t let Mourinho anywhere near my team. Not sure how many games I will go to now and season ticket renewal stays in doubt. But we will see

Ironic you stop going when we start winning ?

 

[mark87]

My bedtime wank is not gonna be an enjoyable one.

 

[philll]

I hope you all are happy now you ungrateful p****s

As if the fans who wanted him gone influenced the decision. Ffs.

 

[hughy]

This is the worst decision the club has made in a long time. Allowed veteran players to fester and poison the club and instead of getting rid of them we get rid of the one good thing we have. Shit decision. Shit situation. And yeah, we still have shit fullbacks. Fml

Looking for a bite buddy?

 

[madroosta]

Some of the players themselves have a massive part to play in this. Thanks for the memories MP, it's been a blast Sugar tits!

 

[Monkey boy]

I see Gards is having a meltdown on Twitter ?. Would be so typical of Spurs to have an appalling start to the season, sack Poch, appoint Jose? finish 5th and win the FA Cup lol

sign me up

We’re only saying that in hindsight though. If we got rid of Toby, rose, jan and eriksen 12-18 months ago, everyone on this board, every spurs fan, every media pundit would have gone mental. I think this is what Poch May have been alluding to when he spoke about trusting him and being brave and probably seeing that their days were numbered

 

[Mark_147]

Suspect that DL will have tied him up with a non compete clause so he cant go to another prem for at least 6 months probably a year

Poch will likely try Italy or Germany

I am fearful that DL has delusions of grandeur. Thinks he can do better than he is able to deliver JM not good at Manure or last Chelski appointmentg

Mourinho won the league in his 2nd spell at Chelsea and the league cup defeating spurs. He won the FA Cup and europa league in his spell at Man Utd and finished runner up in the league. Not too shabby me thinks.

 

[TheHoddleWaddle]

Levy: ok Jose. Ready? What do you need?
Jose: I want him, him, him and him.
Levy: Thats £250m!
Jose: Yes.
Levy: We cant afford that Jose!...Jose?...Jose?..

[dimiSpur]

I'd expect a Mourinho announcement tonight or first thing in the morning followed by a host of pics showing him taking charge at training.

That would be utterly disrespectful to Poch, to announce a manager tonight.

 

[guy]

Im not happy because of the timing and how the best manager we've had in decades was treated by the board his tenure here.

What, being One of the most highly paid managers ever in the history of football?

yeah - no blame at all to Poch on £8.5m a year *face palm*

we are showing relegation form but no, it’s all Levy who is making him one of the highest paid managers in the world.

FFS - wish I had that Job
