ENIC...

[Bluto Blutarsky]

Lol - Levy has played a blinder here. Fan member of the board will be meaningless. Levy makes it look like he has capitulated to the fans while he still controls the majority of votes on the board.

It’s not meaningless as they get voting rights on matters.

What a surprise the club has conveniently released this statement just before a huge anti ENIC protest on Saturday is organised !

 

[CoopsieDeadpool]

guy who you continuously accuse of giving not one crap about what the fans think, and who has a captive audience providing revenue, is getting bullied into anything?
While I suspect there will be an element of tokenness to this supporter involvement, the mere fact that the club has acted to this extent, while we’ve just had words from the other clubs, shows a far more sincere understanding of the damage caused and will to put it right than with any of the other ESL clubs.

And you stupid fuckers thought it was Ten Hag that Levy wanted from Amsterdam.

 

[Montalbano]

do people have to keep going on about one person? give it a rest

Sorry Windy

Five or six more meaningless empty gestures and THST can carry out their entryist boardroom coup.

I'm joking but seriously, it's progress and progress is good. It makes more progress easier to achieve later on.

If Windy is elected or even considered to be the fan's representative on the board we riot.

Christ, can you imagine? He'd be Levy's ultimate get-out-of-jail-free card - wouldn't matter how little we won, as long as whatever we did was pretty.

Windy is the worst version of the modern "good football" Spurs fan - a group who are steadily turning us into West Ham, not Tottenham Hotspur.

It’s meaningless. Levy/ENIC hav control of enough votes that a fan vote will be meaningless. Interesting, but meaningless.

 

[Bluto Blutarsky]

will they thou?

Yes, my understanding is the fan board member will have voting rights on all issues that come before the board.

I realise there is cynicism including from me but if you think about this - this is massive for a PL team. And totally unprecedented. It is na real start.

 

[CoopsieDeadpool]

Im voting for @coopsieyid Imagine he would have an excellent library of gifs to demonstrate the fans feelings to Levy every time he brings up a player to pursue for a transfer.

As @Goobers says it’s unprecedented. None of the other clubs are offering this and it has never been done before in the history of English football, in the top flight anyway. A member of the public having that tiny slice of power is surprising.

Chelsea already did this - with the caveat their fan member won't be allowed to vote on football decisions.

Thats sort of my point - it looks like a fan has a tiny slice of power - but they really have none. Its no more a voice than the THST has right now - its just dressed up to look like "power".

If the fan resprestative doesnt immediately call for Lamela to get a statue, I will want him gone. With his rabonas & the winding up of wilshere, he demands a statue.

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

Fair enough, I completely get that. I definitely am getting ahead of myself, but it makes me very happy that one of our fans is going to be able to have a say in what's best for our club, however small of a say it is. Gives me some optimism!

That’s the thing though. Who are these ‘fans’ going to be? I’m not suggesting it should be one of the match threads disciples of the flying knee but who? How will they be selected? What will the criteria be?

still it’s early days so we’ll see

 

[Pochemon94]

I nominate myself to be on the board, I'm American and I know how much he has bent over to get more American fans ? lol... but in all seriousness it'll probably be the president of the THST

 

[SandroClegane]

Say - probably no ,but it will be easier to convey our displeasure with another season of Dier&Winks power duo, and maybe tell the fuckers that if it is Martinez world will burn!!

You realize how unhinged you have to be to be in a professional board meeting with club executives and start airing grievances like that? Showing up kitted out while everyone else is in a business suit.

Gotta be someone we can trust. Only one blast from the past for this job.
