Pretty much every English club except for:
Man City (since 2008)
Chelsea (thanks to huge amounts of blood money)
Arsenal
Liverpool
Manchester United
- These three have been better than us for far longer than two decades.
If you want heartless greed look to Manure.
If you want failure look to Everton.
If you want a club (nearly) destroyed look to Leeds (and Everton).
I don't understand how you can say that our home ground is now a soulless entertainment venue. It's actually pretty well designed and the...
I think the majority of Spurs fan share your sentiment. It's been a painful few years but it looks like Ange is starting to bring back the kind of football we can all enjoy.
Between Uni and getting married, I followed Spurs home and away for much of the nineties. Despite the terrible state of...
Both were completely wrong for us but I guess they were chosen because they had a good record of getting results.
I voted for Conte as I think he was doing a better job until the moment he lost interest, which I think was around the time of the World Cup. We were well on track for a top four...
I think it's a pity you value those who just endlessly disagree without posting their opinions above those who are willing to actually write about their opinions. Or those engage in puerile accusations, suggesting I am Donna Cullen or one of her agents. It's serious playground stuff. In the end...
Absolutely! I don't mind the negative responses. But most of them hide behind their little emojis and don't offer an opinion.
My point is that repeated negative responses shouldn't lead the automatic withdrawal of the benefit of the doubt, which I thought what was the admin was suggesting.
I’ve been posting on here on and off for years now. If you seriously think I am anything other than a genuine spurs fan I despair.
Surely this community should be able to entertain opposing if unpopular opinions. I have not reacted to any abuse, nor have I tried to offend anyone. Many of the...
Where next for Spurs after Slot shuns manager role
BBC headline. It’s not my “spin”. There isn’t much trust on this site. Giving the people the benefit of the doubt, especially by the admins, would allow for much broader debate.
Just out of curiosity, where do you get your info about what goes...
Thanks for trying to keep it on topic. It's real slog trying to evoke a sensible response to my clearly unpopular position. BTW I wouldn't formulate it as a defence of Levy. More a broadening of the perspective.
Since Slot rejected us most of the people in this thread seem to have gone...
I appreciate the time you have taken to argue your position. Many thanks!
Regarding definitions I think we agree on what long-term decline and self-inflicted mean.
I don't see long-term decline because I think we will recover quickly from the initial burden of the stadium build (of course it...
The fact that you state as fact that Kane is leaving slightly weakens your argument. I don't expect him to stay but he might.
I guess we will have to see what Levy does.
My point the criticism is excessive. I did not say there is legitimate criticism.
Putting across an unpopular point of view is pretty hard in the hostile environment of this thread.
Sure. I enjoyed the Jol, Redknapp and Poch years. We've had great players and proper football in that time. I personally don't think success is defined only by winning things. It's mostly the journey for me.
Not sure I will be doing much looking back in 30/40 years.
I said long-term decline. It's been a shit season, but before Conte lost total interest (pre-World Cup) we were well placed. I am surprised how little anger is directed at Conte, not so much for losing interest, but for his totally unprofessional rant after the Southampton game which has fed the...
I find it equally annoying that people are so profoundly negative about our current situation. It's bad, and no spurs fan is enjoying but to suggest that we are in self-inflicted long-term decline (your analogy to post-Brexit England) I just cannot see.
I was responding the YB123 comment:
"Compared to what Newcastle achieved with Ashley, United with Glazers now and even West Ham getting GSB"
Man U are one the richest clubs in the world which is why they have won so much. Under Levy we've narrowed the gap but despite the Glazers we are still a...
You do realise that what goes on this site is just a bunch of very frustrated fans voicing their opinions. We are not actually doing anything in the sense that we have no agency over decisions made by Levy and co. I'd say thinking you do is a little unhinged.
The last twenty years have been...
