The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - RETRO Edition 14th September 2020

Swiss ramblings showing our finances over the last 5 years, the owner hasn't spent a penny whilst taking £40 million from the club. So excuse me if i don't laugh at people sticking up for a board that doesn't have anything but there own interest and deep pockets to fill.

He also said that they put in £40m in 2014, so net zero.

Which is consistent with the way ENIC run things.

Zero investment from a billionaire owner was my point and still stands.

which really means, this is how ENIC runs tottenham....ENIC don't exactly have a detailed record
in football (stock in some smaller clubs). Levy has run the biz brilliantly for ENIC - cost of acquisition approx 60 million and in 20 years it has a value of 2-3 billion. On top of that Levy has made millions in salary for himself.

cc. @Archibald&Crooks this new latitude is really weird....

Did he not intimate there were signs of frustration creeping in?

Only over Bale. Latest striker updates are all positive (none today).

Has anyone been whoring on the other sites? I’m banned from COYS for not posting enough or I’d go and look myself. We could really do with some actual news to discuss.

Fuck COYS, I got banned from there years back. Asked the mods privately if I could enquire about tickets in the forum, was told yes so posted the question. Within the hour I had a message to say my access had been removed and when I queried it, was told I was given incorrect information.

But I need to keep this post relevant so....

Fuck Levy as well!

But he mentions being done with Levy if Mourinho doesn't get his targets, clearly not confident that will happen...that's how it reads to me anyway.

Lmao they're a weird bunch. Spent 3 months under the bloody ocean working my arse off, came back to a snooty email about being removed. I appealed, explaining why & the guy pretty much said "tough". Bunch of c*nts!

He does, but I think that’s just a comment to take at face value, I don’t think he’s left room for that kind of inference. To my mind he’s just said IF that happens, not implied that he’s in any way expecting it.

If we lose on Thursday I’m going to punch one of the neighbourhood cats.

I don’t expect that this will transpire, however.

I value the information that you post and am grateful that you choose to share it with us; but that is an absolutely disgusting comment that should have no place on this or any other internet forum.

Yeah. Cos she’s more of a bass ?

The quandary with DL, he wastes time reaching into his pockets, while fiddling & dilly dallying around there his nether regions which triggers an un-fortuitous inauguration from a deep slumber of his short straw, by the time he has fully located it and hit his straw spot discharging the most minuscule wisp of straw dust after fantasizing about the most obscene salacious immoral one sided screw of a deal that somehow uncle joe is telepathically linked to from the Bahamas, Madrid and our chance would have moved on ..... after which he would then be oblivious to any memory or ability of hindsight of the clubs failings once again as Uncle Joe would have tightened his yacht shaped dildo even further up DL's tight arse awakening him to the bloodcurdling repugnant gaze of the Kra-cullen, rendering him to the men in black flash experience of plausible deniability

 

[Chirpystheman]

I understand the antipathy towards Levy but an ITK suggested that Levy “needs to back Mourinho and give him who he needs”. I had got the impression that Hojbjerg and Doherty were Mourinho choices and the only other “need” he has expressed was a backup striker.

Seems to me we need more than that but are there other names or positions that Mourinho feels are needs that I’ve missed?

They were the names that were given due to Jose knowing levy would never pay for the people he actually wanted. Due to budget constraints he had to plump for the cheaper options. Whether they are up to it time will tell. We need so much. Its a disgrace that they aren't in yet.

Don't get used to it. It's only for today.

Can we lay off Donna Cullen, specifically attacks on her looks? Smash her on decision making if you've got a gripe but the nasty comments about her today really smack of typical internet misogyny.

I wouldn't call some of the links positive. More desperate. However anyone is better than no one

I dunno. Levy routinely gets called a bald midget *insert any expletive your mind can conjure up* on this forum. No need to get precious about Donna Cullen copping it because she happens to be a woman.

Vinny Jannsen might be evidence in the contrary.

When? Who fucking does that?

Tbh I take exception to that too, and have remarked as such before (over deaf ears... or blind eyes... whatever the reading equivalent is) - personal attacks based on people you don't know is churlish at the best of times. In this case, it seems like people are having some sort of cathartic moment by jumping on about DC on the basis of, well, a few throwaway insults with not a lot of context.

not nearly the same thing. Historically women have their looks, age, and sexual history used as ammunition against them where it is in no way applicable to the discussion. Levy gets smacked around for his business approach as well as being called a bald midget. If you've got a real criticism of her professional performance than by all means have at it but that is not even close to the tenor of what is happening here.
