That has to be fake.
But for her sake I hope the mobile number is wrong, otherwise that really sucks.
Lol of course it is. You’d have to be completely brain dead to think that was genuine. Might as well be written in fucking crayon.

Good grief.

I imagine the situation with Slot went something like this:

1. We held talks, agreed to his personal terms. He believes in the vision sold to him by Levy.
2. His current club set his release clause at a price Spurs wouldn't pay. Presumably, it was something doable. But Danny, Danny'd it up.
3. Slot observes this negotiating tactic, and sees the light. In short: He sees that Baldy is full of shit, and won't keep his promises. 'Cos if he isn't willing to pay a middle-of-the-road release clause, then you can assume this is how his time at Spurs will play out. Lots of promises constantly broken.

After this moment of clarity, he commits to his existing club.

Good for him. As it puts the spotlight back on the biggest sickness at the club: Our chairman.

What talented, up-and-coming manager wants to go where talent and potential dies under the weight of persistent lies, chaos, and dysfunction that has dragged our beloved club to the bottom of an ocean of mediocrity?

The club we adore is being held hostage by an unmovable megalomaniac. Hard to see any hope on the horizon as long as he continues blocking the light.

Problem with your post is that's I'll down to your imagination!

No what it is is that they are looking at it purely from a monetary pov. You can't run a successful football club based only on financial numbers.
Agree with you. What is success to us fans might be different the number crunchers and that's become apparent season after fucking season

There's a picture of an email from Donna Cullen flying about - I'm hesitant to post it in case it's not real but it does say there's "substantial amount of unsubstantiated speculation in the media"
She also has she/her under her email signature which is sending people on twitter into a frenzy 😒
Pronouns in email sigs is very normal in the corporate world now, at least in North America. Obviously, though, Twitter being what it has become would explode over that.

Mate Levy has made it clear he wants a project manager. If you are concerned about having to sack him a year in then either you aren't convinced, or you aren't really committed to that project. After 57 days(and the months previous of knowing this was coming) you'd like to think these things should be 100% known.
My point was comparing a transfer for a player to that of a manager (any manager) doesn't make much sense as I understand it (and could be wrong).

I find that hard to believe. No offence
Why? I've supported them since the early '80s and find it extremely depressing. You have to think of it in context to the situation. When Spurs were relegated in the 70s, they weren't considered one of Europe's top ten wealthiest clubs. They didn't have one of the best stadiums in the world or training facilities.

The lackluster '90s and early 2000s was the very definition of average. But we accepted it, because it was on par with our means. However, now, we have all of the above and it's going to waste. And when you have waited over 30+ years to finally see your team has the means to compete at the top, and tasted it... this current situation stings. As life is very short. And for those that have waited a very long time to fill our boots with the joys of success, it's horrid.

You mean apart from over 7000 views on Twitter already!?
If that is fake, can you imagine the poor bugger who does have that mobile number?!

They must be wondering WTF is going on with the stream of profanity coming their way! 🫣

A few people couldn’t believe it when I suggested we should choose the best managerial candidate and then let them choose a DoF to work with.

If we did that you all know who we’d likely have in charge for next season right?

It’s mental to me this hasn’t happened. You’d have two of the most important football people at the club on the same page from day one.

And given a small taste of success under Poch has made the shit show that has followed all the more unpalatable!

Remind me again how long ago did we give Conte the boot and how long until pre-season plans/transfers etc should be put in place?
