I literally cannot handle all these feels. :cry:

I’ve just come from receiving my first-born in my arms, and 15 minutes later I get a text saying Poch has been sacked.

So many different feelings all at the same time...

I cannot at this time articulate anything more than, it is a fact that the seasons under Poch have been the far most enjoyable in my 20 years as a Spurs fan, and by God, I hope my newborn son grows up with a Tottenham to be proud of.

Congratulations!

really ? You seen his comments and body language this last 7-8 months

Sorry, I was asking for context around Ghostofarmos convo from wherever it was whored from.

The second part was kinda rhetorical.

I’m so confused right now, hold me....please? PLEASE!

It saddens me that so many Spurs fans speak so much fucking horse-shit. I mean seriously, WTF do we expect Levy to have done differently? He is not responsible for the players not being able to pass a ball 20 yards to a colleague is he? Get a fucking grip you lot. We're all gutted that Poch has gone but there was no other way out of the mess we're in, and the many of the players are getting away with fucking murder too. Whoever comes in now, whether it's Jose or Rafa or anyone else, they've got a real job on their hands to keep us in the Premier League. Let's all pray we can at least shut those fucking pikeys up on Saturday because they'll be all over this. I want to see a real reaction from the players after this shock and I'm sure we all do.

Gutted despite all I’ve said recently. Looked for all the world that he was getting the whole year and then sacked him, classic spurs

He’s gonna immediately be a manager of one of the top probably 5 clubs in the world but he wasn’t good enough for Spurs anymore? Fucking morons.
He dug his own grave. You can't have sympathy for the man. Our CL finish has jaded too many opinions on here.

We've ripped through the 5 stages of grief... it feels like a lot of us are already at "acceptance".

Parasite? Come on mate
Yes. A parasite. This tweet puts it as well as I could:

A very rare example of a manager genuinely being *too good for a club. Pochettino was so above Levy the chairman didn't know what to do: when and why to spend money; when to move players on; how to solve current crisis. So he just threw out a genius he never deserved.

And I couldn't agree more. Levy isn't made out to operate a title-aspiring club. He stumbled upon Pochettino who just happened to be a potential generational manager that overachieved and worked miracles in extreme regard for a good period of 4.5 years - when the footballing side of the club needed to be executed and handled as a big club would, Levy have handled it just comically bad.

Carragher put it best - when the likes of Guardiola undeniably chooses to move on, Pochettino is most likely number 1 on that replacement list. That should say enough about what kind of manager he is.

Media starting the anti levy/spurs narrative already. Just seen sky rewriting recent history.

Going to have to batten down the hatches. There’s going to be so many idiotic spurs fans desperate for us to lose with the new guy. Other teams’ fans will be desperate for us to return to shit.

Sad that his tenure has come to an end like this but its the right call. Poch's team selection has been off, his in-game management in 2019 has been shocking and it appears that he has lost the players.

You can't come back from that and Levy has rightly acted on it.

The fact that this news is everywhere absolutely everywhere shows what poch has done to this club... and shows what a big club we are because he has helped us in the main to get there

Like many I'm saddened but understand why the decision has been made, we have good players and he's not been able to get the best out of them for a while now. He gave us so much but everything comes to an end and I just hope we get someone in who can bring our squad back to life.

Redknapp on Radio 5: "Spurs have a great squad with internationals in every position. They've been massively underachieving. I like Chris Wilder at Sheffield United. He could win the PL with the right team. They'll go foreign for sure."

so explain the last year? Explain the results ? The tactics ? The body
language ? The contradicting comments? The courtship of other jobs? The doing one thing and saying another ? The Poch last 9 months not the same as the one who joined ? Levy prob not blameless but Poch has to take blame sorry
