What could’ve been a glorious summer for Levy and the culmination of years of hard work has turned into a minor embarrassment for him and the club.
We need to ride this out now. Keep hold of our key players, and chug along in the league and hopefully finish top four again. If we can do that then hopefully next summer we’ll be settled in the new stadium and actually invest in the squad. Why move into a top class new stadium if you have no ambition or means to invest and improve on the pitch?
Here’s hoping.

Yep I said this the other day on here that a couple of defeats and some fans will kick off and vent their anger towards the board and the team suffers.
My friends son who now lives in NY wanted to come here with his wife to see the first game at the new stadium i.e. the Liverpoolgame .
He spent £2k on flights and accommodation only now to be told that the game is now at Wembley. Had he known it was at Wembley he wouldnt have come and would have waited for the new opening date.
He sent an email to the club explaining his frustration and the reply he got from DC said she didnt know what he was complaining about as the game was still being played on the same date and at the same time.
This in my opinion typifies the clubs attitude towards us supporters. He wasnt asking for a rebate on his fares abut for an explanation as to why this has happened. A simple apology or some sympathy would have bee nice .but not the curt repl he got.
I love the club and have been going to home and away games including Europe for over 60 years. I have watched probably over 1800 games but the club now sickens me .
I have a ST but this year will be my last,as under the present ownership I think they have lost their soul and Im very sad.

I think the concern is if we sell in the next few weeks with European clubs still being able to buy rather than us selling for financial reasons.
The likes of Alderweireld are said to want out.

Was that really necessary?
Anyone travelling from abroad had to understand there was a risk it wouldn’t be ready for Liverpool. Even just looking from the outside that was clearly obvious let alone what was going on inside. It’s unfortunate for those traveling but they were naive to think there was no risk. But from here the club must only set a date in they are 100% sure. Will be interesting if Pochettino maintains his upbeat Stance. He clearly said we played 38 away games. He can’t suddenly turn round and say it’s not a disadvantage.

Too many people moaning for moanings sake - snowflake generation offended by everything.
They have no idea of the complications on a project of this size and think the world owes them.
The club have been fair.
Stop moaning and get over it.

Emirate of Abu DhabiAs someone who's spent his almost his entire working life in the chemical industry, I can assure you that I would certainly not want Jim Ratcliffe anywhere near Spurs. His whole business strategy has been based on buying distressed assets cheaply and then squeezing profit from them. It would break his heart to find himself funding the acquisition of £100 million professional footballers to compete with the likes of the Sultanate of Dubai, when he knows that he could maximise his revenues by maintaining season ticket prices whilst relying on the output from the academy. He's effectively a posher version of Mike Ashley.
ENIC may have many flaws, but Jim Ratcliffe is certainly not the answer. He's clearly a much better fit at Stamford Bridge!

Yes , The initial positive ITK (150/before WC/etc) has to have been club disinformation if you look at who benefits . They've controlled some of the info reaching ITK , and done so for many years .
PR Dept will be monitoring fan opinion (inc us) especially now as Levy ponders on how many Euro sales .
Nice.

Agree. We missed at least two in the last two summer TWs, Harry Maguire last summer and Maddison this summer, particularly Maddison, I thought he fitted our profile perfectly!!

Completely agree with you on this - the huge amount of money in football at the moment is bound to get people riled up. It's such a "hot" issue that we even get royally pissed off about the way other people spend money.
The reason I tend to reply to stuff about Levy/ENIC is because I think there's a common misconception about their motives that is very easy to keep rolling because we see it so much in society in general. For example, I went to Thorpe Park the other day and they charge you a tenner to use their car park! It's money grabbing in the extreme.
Levy wants to make THFC profitable so that money can be invested back into the club and the local community. That re-investment has been happening over the past however many years - possibly to a larger extent than any other club in the country. Off the top of my head I can't think of anyone else who has built a new training facility and stadium in recent times.
But the misconception is that he is going home each night with a lorry full of £50 notes he skimmed from the club's petty cash. The idea that he turns down Grealish at £35m (for example) because he's going to steal that money and buy a volcano with it or something.
No doubt people would complain about him not securing a volcano naming rights deal with HSBC!
