A plane is such a shit gesture, just makes our fans look like dickheads, if you want to protest do it properly and get on the street (when it's safe ;))
I know what youre saying but it's harder to ignore it. A protest in the street could be ignored or demanding to not pay tickets whilst hurting levy in the pocket may not get any coverage. A plane flying over (as pathetic as it may be) on live TV may just get people talking. Although it may just have as many people criticising it and defending the club

Would it be #spursy if the banner falls off mid flight?
Or it just reads “ENIC OU” because we got to the final letter and our bottle crashed.

Or it’s brought down by Sissoko pointing at the moon again.

I’m sure I’ve got more of these.

Reckon that sentiment would be widely agreed with by a % of the fan base ... :ROFLMAO:

It’s not as if Spurs fans have form for that kind of thing..........?

It’s important to point out that City’s deal with Etihad was signed over 9 years ago - since when, the value of sponsorship deals for the biggest clubs has risen hugely. So you aren’t comparing apples with apples when you compare a deal that City signed in 2011 to a deal that Spurs are looking to strike now.

Neither are you comparing apples with apples when you compare the new Spurs stadium with the Etihad (especially as it was back in 2011). As a stadium, ours is on an altogether higher level. As a venue for a wide variety of major events, the Etihad cannot begin to compare. So whatever Spurs lose by having a lower profile than City, they more than make up by having a far better, far more versatile and far more in demand stadium.

We don’t know what Levy is looking to earn from stadium sponsorship. We don’t know what interest has been expressed thus far. Until we do get that information, I don’t think we’re in a position either to lambast or praise Levy re stadium sponsorship - much though the ENIC OUT and BSODL camps would love to!
Man! Someone has seriously been pissing in your lemonade?
One thing is for sure - we have not signed a naming rights deal.
So we’re clearly not offering up a bargain can’t refuse opportunity.
We always always always be and top buck but expect to pay way under market values.
One year of revenue lost.

I think you will also find that I said there isn’t a better stadium in Europe
AND we ‘should’ have a lucrative tie in with the US sports market.

I also think you underestimate just how accurate media reporting is. Figures are usually pretty accurate, ball park if not.
£250m or there abouts is unbelievably high just for the naming of the stadium. Especially as it rarely gets mentioned or photographed

I read somewhere earlier today that Mourinho is saying that there is a 5 year plan.

I don’t get that and I don’t know if it’s true or not but surely you can’t meet your objectives of getting into the top four regularly and reaching a champions league final to then have to have a 5 year plan. if we had shown ambition to invest on the pitch at the right times we wouldn’t need a 5 year plan. The thing with all of these 5 year plans is that your always 5 years away from them.

I really don’t have the appetite for all of that anymore.
I know that this will be an unpopular statement but I’m starting to feel that our time in the top four was always going to be short lived because of the ambitions and the desire of the other teams to spend their way back in at our expense.

thr club I grew up supporting was synonymous with winning trophies. They’d won 3 FA cups and a UEFA cup by the time I was 10. this is the first time I’ve started to doubt ENICS motives and I’m reallyfeeling a lack of passion for it all

For what it's worth, I don't believe that we should be "offering up a bargain, can't refuse opportunity". I'd rather that we got the best deal that we can.

As to press rumours, perhaps I do underestimate their accuracy. Perhaps, too, you overestimate it? Regardless, I see little point in getting angry about something about which we so know so little.

I thought it was supposed to be for Sunday?

I probably didn’t read it properly. I thought it was our next home game. This is what I mean though when I question whether they are actually spurs fans doing it and not other teams fans. All it is going to do is destabilise us during a big game. Doesn’t sound like the kind of thing a real fan would do.

Profit over glory, simple as that.
I’ve supported this club for 30years and sure I get it we have a nice shiny stadium and training ground and we haven’t ‘done a Leeds‘... yet.
BUT off the field infrastructure only means so much, football is about what happens ON the pitch and for 20 years Levy has been hiring and firing managers with no feasible plan, he holds us back on squad management by holding onto players too long that we don’t need or the manager doesn’t want any more, and by insisting on bargain basement transfers with no proper plan to mould a squad to suit a style which the manager wants to build.

He‘s then gone and undone 5 years of amazing work that Poch did woth utter negligence in squad management and hiring a dianosaur who‘s football is putting us all to sleep. There is and has never been a successful plan for the FOOTBALL side of the club and now not only are we not successful but we’ve lost the one thing we’ve always had which was at least some mildly entertaining attacking football.

Never felt this Disallousioned about Spurs in my life, Jose is wrong, the squad needs an overhaul and I don’t trust Levy to sort either of those things out. Well have to keep putting up with joseball until we all fall asleep or switch to another sport.

Thanks for the stadium and training ground now please just FUCK OFF out of our club.

Another thing for sure. If we were waiting for a “bigger $$” naming rights then COVID will have put pay to that. Unless someone mental like Amazon comes along. That’s another levy trait. Thinking bigger and better can be done. There is a fine line between smart business and stupid greed.

I like to see levy negotiate a naming rights deal once the fans are back in multi purpose entertainment venue and booing the team off the pitch every game

Banner confirmed for Sunday. While the sentiment is growing support in numbers I just feel like this kind of approach is the stuff of ridicule. Great for Amazon.

If people are pissed off the best way to do it is not renew season tickets and not buy tickets when the stadium reopens.

If we are this bad next season we won’t fill out the stadium after a while, no matter how many fans we may have.
