Looks like both parts are looking into terminating Rose’s contract. A sad end imo

Goodbye Danny Rose


Goodbye Danny Rose
May you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed itself
Where lives were torn apart
You called out to our country
And you whispered to those in pain
Now you belong to heaven
And the stars spell out your name

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset
When the rain set in
And your footsteps will always fall here
Along England's greenest hills
Your candle's burned out long before
Your legend ever will

Loveliness we've lost
These empty days without your smile
This torch we'll always carry
For our nation's golden child
And even though we try
The truth brings us to tears
All our words cannot express
The joy you brought us through the years

I can understand this, but I too have a close family member, my closest in fact, who has suffered severely mental health, to a genuinely life affecting and debilitating effect, and that person still displays humility, integrity and decency as a priority. I know every situation is different but I’ve actually found it offensive when I’ve continually seen Danny’s outburst justified by ‘well his mental health is poor’ as I struggle with the notion that it’s severe enough to alter his social awareness and perception but not so severe that he’s prevented from playing football professionally at the highest level.

I fully accept that mental health issues have multiple intangible effects and we’re barely scratching the surface in terms of the science behind it, I’ve seen this first hand as explained above, but I’ve just found it disingenuous when Danny gets a pardon for every unprofessional comment because of it.

This. I'm getting tired of people throwing the "But he has a mental illness though" in there all the time. He's still an adult and supposed to be a professional. What about all the players coming out with stupid stuff in the press that could just as well have a mental illness but have chosen to not go public about it, they will just be called idiots as that is what they look like. I myself have some issues with depression, but I do not expect to people to make excuses for me because of that.

It is a sad ending.

Maybe it's a Left Back-thing... His predecessor at the position was Benoit Assou-Ekotto. He'd been with us for a long time too but his time here ended acrimoniously as well...

Benny didn't like footbal at alll, but was always professional and always put the effort in.

It's just a very strange end to his Spurs career.

We just have no idea how much Danny's mental health is affecting this situation though. Obviously, he's spoken a bit about this subject in the past, but we don't know to what extent it is or isn't an issue now.

He's earned enough money that, if it's what he needs, he can get all manner of counseling and care that most of us can only dream of. I know that's not a "cure", but I hope it's a help.

However, for whatever reason - be it mental health or not - he seems out of Jose's plans forever so needs to go.

I wish Danny well, but ultimately the club has to look after itself.

A sad end. I hope there is no animosity on either side.

Sorry to hear that BBLG. I hope she gets better.

To be fair to Danny Rose he has also displayed humility, integrity and decency, but it tends to be forgotten because of all the other stuff:

It’s a he (blood relative), but thank you ?

Oh and in one of my posts I’ve also stated that I have respect for his great efforts in contributing towards both Tottenham’s and his home towns community, and the way he’s gone about dealing with awareness of racism. He’s shown admirable qualities in both. However, purely in the context of professionalism, he’s let himself down too often and it’s caught up with him.

It was actually posted before the game.
regardless I stand by my assessment

There was also the tweet he sent out when avb was sacked.
There was also Danny rose's interview that pretty much called him out for turning up late to training and not putting in the sand effort as he .

His comments about team mate naughton
Headbutting a team mate.

I feel like you’ve just googled whatever random evidence you could to try to back up a weak point that had no substance.

He said Naughton, a right goe footed right back, wasn’t a threat to his position at let back. Big deal.

He lost his temper playing for Cameroon and did something silly, absolutely no bearing on his time with Spurs which by that point was effectively over.

An interview given by Danny Rose... I really don’t need to say more.

The tweet I’ll give you was not right but equally it wasn’t any different to what all our fans were thinking.

You get a C for effort as you didn’t show your workings, and a D for content with lacks substance, clarity and relevance.
