until 38 games have been played it's not over, with 27 games left it definitely ain't over
Just a bit of banter

Probably much sooner. Maybe 1/12 of a year, maybe 1/26 of a year, maybe 1/3 of a year.Question is, will it be 365 days or a year?
I want what you are smoking.I'm hoping we haven't become a club who is snuggly warm in our nearly men status. It seems with Poch we've found the ultimate nearly man, and a manager a lot of fans are worried about losing because this is the best we can expect.
For me, this isn't the best we should expect. We shouldn't have to settle for this, because if we do, it shows we are happy to be where we are, but scared of rolling the dice and becoming a truly big club...who wins things.
Top 4, check. CL, check, a couple of semi-finals, check. This is what we were all dreaming of for years, and now we've got it, it seems a majority of us are comfortable with our new status and scared of making that next leap.
We can tread water for another 5 years, doing the same, rolling along like we always have, or we can make a statement and go balls out for an actual world class manager. I'm certain that it will take us someone like Mourinho, for the short or long term, to elevate us into that club that does hire the best managers and buy the best players, and I think Mourinho would command that level of improvement from both the players and the owners.
I'm sick of seeing us constantly capitulate, be it the disappointment of not getting top 4, to lasagne-gate, to losing semi-finals, to not winning the CL when it was there for the taking. Is this always going to be us?
Poch for the moment is perfect, he's nearly good enough, our team is nearly good enough, the owners are nearly good enough and 60% of us, judging by the poll, are happy with it. I'm just not anymore.
Entitled? Why not? Why shouldn't we expect to win something after all these years of foundations, building and developing, otherwise what are we here for? Just to make up the numbers and give the other big clubs something to constantly laugh at? Big clubs do feel entitled and that's why we always take the piss out of ManU and Liverpool, as they expect their team to perform and win stuff. Guess what? They do.
We are just West Ham with more money at the moment. A club you can guarantee will let you down in the end. I want better now.
A little while ago our squad had the highest value squad in the world, with the best defence, a golden boot winner, and our golden age. We've now added the best stadium and the best training complex. Why are we settling for a manager who is getting worse as we are getting better? I don't have faith anymore. It's time we pulled up a chair at the big table.
We should be aiming at winning the league. Not looking at a potential relegation season. Mourinho was a failure for finishing second. We're happy with scraping 4th. As a fanbase we need to start setting our expectations higher.

Cool news.
Are you also funding the replacement of half a team in the transfer market?
No. Just like he wont have been sacked when we're still talking about this shit a month from now. It's baffling that the club seem no closer to making a change now than we were before the season started. Levy's negligence here is staggering considering he's sacked managers for less.Has he been sacked yet?
Has he been sacked yet?
View from the ground is that most people on social media and fan sites are absolute cucumbers. Travelling support very much still backing Poch. They've seen Levy at work before, with Jol, Redknapp etc, likely turn on the bald little **** first before Poch.
You think spurs only have up to 5000 supporters?I am one of those travelling supporters.
Totally agree with you.
Do I think he will turn it around ? Probably not this season, cannot see us getting Top 4 now.
Do I think he should be replaced ? Yes, but only by a top name, and only if it means some players that want him out stay
Am I fully behind Poch at the games ? Without doubt, and desperately want him to turn things around.
Supporters (and being controversial, the ones that travel are the only ones I really regard as supporters) don’t just turn on a manager that has given us many memorable nights, being in the Amsterdam Arena that night will never be forgotten.
I despise some of the disrespectful posts on here, telling him to f**k off etc.
If he does go, it should be with dignity and full respect.
I want what you are smoking.
I'm kidding, this is good reading.
It was just a joke - it gets a bit heavy on here sometimes so a bit of levity doesn't go amiss.Probably much sooner. Maybe 1/12 of a year, maybe 1/26 of a year, maybe 1/3 of a year.
Jesus, my point wasn't about thinking that he'll leave in a years time. Some poster said that if he hasn't left by "event X", he is here to stay. My post was to counter that stance, stating that he'll leave the club at some point that means that next season, he is not managing Tottenham.
Let's move on. Is there any pudding?
You think spurs only have up to 5000 supporters?
Mate, have a day off.Told you it was controversial.
I see those fans that travel home and away, as being the true supporters of the club, other as fans/followers of the club.
What? Some people dont have the means to follow the club to every single city theres a game in.Told you it was controversial.
