The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

[Metalhead]

I agree that the blame on Levy is down to him getting in Conte to begin with - should never have been Conte or Jose or NES.

But my point is - people will be blaming Levy for this specific defeat and for Sheff Utd and not laying th eblame of Conte and the players. It is everyone but defending a 0 0 and 1-0 aggregate loss from minute 1 is ridiculous

I know that it seems like people are blaming him specifically after a defeat. Honestly, no-one blames Levy directly for a result - I don't get why people always think that this is the case. It's the overall frustration that we're heading for yet another coaching replacement. None of these coaches gave themselves the job - there is only one constant.

 

[Trent Crimm]

Here’s an idea.

floppy doesn’t want to leave. Fine. Let him run the slot machines, donkey rides, go karts and kiss me quick hats. And for the love of all that’s Holy get someone in on the football side that gives a shit about the game and not just unit shifting. Fuck me.

That Danny Rose image is going to be a meme for years

 

[Drink!Drink!]

It may keep repeating at teh trophy side of things but given that last week people were happy to play a weakened squad, id question how much some fans want to win trophies to begin with. And if they did want trophies and thought we had players to win against Sheff Utd then the blame lays on Contes feet.

Blame Levy for not winning trophies, but you cant blame Levy for the 0-0 defensive performance when you need TWO goals. Any other manager would have gone for it. We fucking put on Sanchez when we needed a goal.

To be honest when you appoint Mourinho, Nuno and then Conte that is what you will get. It's not some kind of huge surprise. Levy has made many decisions that have brought us to this place.

Are we still going to pretend he’s not the problem ?
Time to speak up at games !

Levy plays a role in the blame, he is CEO getting 7 figures so he needs to be held accountable. Levys judgement of hiring the last three managers has been awful. I am of the same thought as some.

I just hate the whole backing narrative - we have spent is it 200m since he has come - perhaps more I think? 140m pound of players came off the bench tonight. He has been backed enough for us to get a goal and create a few chances. r-

I think that we've pretty much accepted that Conte needs a very specific team to make his philosophy work. Clearly it isn't Levy's 'last chance saloon' but for the long term good of the footballing wing of Tottenham, he really could do with getting the next appointment right.

I remember checking the odds for this in the past, and bar 2 or 3 finals he was the favorite in that game. It would be the first time in his career when he would be playing final as a massive, massive underdog. So I'm not really sure his cup winning machine would really work.

My bad, in his last 5 months we beat one team from top 10 - it was Leeds. Last game against City we lost 3-0 and we were absolutely awful. Our only win in his last month came against Aston Villa without Grealish. We were knocked from Europa League by Dinamo without manager. I'm pretty sure 22 shots and 3.4 xG is Newcastle best record in last few years even after Howe joined them plus they were without Callum Wilson. So yeah, I think that's enough for his sacking to be justified.

WTF are you going on about?!?! Who said sack or keep Conte?

That second paragraph is off topic and off subject.


"I'm not sure his cup winning machine would really work"....

"marathon runner completes marathon every year for 15 years straight but not sure he would complete 5k for me"

 

[G Ron]

Don't know where to put this, I remember Poch talking about houses with insufficient furniture as well. 4 years ago...

That tells you all you need to know. The players know exactly where all the problems stem from at this football club.

 

[Cheltenham Spur]

The one constant in the running of Tottenham is Levy. He appoints managers. He sets the goals. He sets the tone.

So when we put out a scratch side at Sheffield fuckin United and go out of the FA Cup it comes back to him.

When we stumble ineffectively out of the Champions League against a bang average AC Milan it comes back to him.

For an intelligent guy it beggars belief that he can't see that he's wasting the opportunity he himself created to make Spurs a real giant.

He needs to hand over the reins. He needs to realise that to bring success to Spurs someone else has to run the football side.

And for the sake of all that's holy He has to get shot of Conte.

Its a collective blame. Players didnt do enough, manager didnt do enough.

But this is a repeat of so many seasons. Groundhog day. And that is why the blame for Levy and ENIC is warranted.

 

[SpursJC]

I know it’s going over old ground but it’s staggering to me that right now we have Levy, whose limited football knowledge has collapsed into a farce in the last few seasons, a director of football that has an arrest warrant out/under investigation, a manager that has totally checked out and a squad in need of a massive rebuild, if we weren’t sure it was incompetence, you’d think it was done on purpose

Football fantasy fiction written by an Arsenal fan. They will make Levy Chairman for life.

[fishhhandaricecake]

So what’s the chant at Forest then? “We want Levy & Conte out?”

 

[fishhhandaricecake]

Danny Rose throwing shadeeee haha love it :

Danny Rose: Daniel Levy said Tottenham signings weren't great? I said something similar and was fined!

I certainly believe it. You dont sack a cup winning machine for a 29 year old with no experience. If he sacked Mourinho after the final fair enough.
I think you are pro levy and you disagree with a lot of anti levy stuff but come on, how can sacking him because of form be justified at that moment in time for Mason?

That same same cup winning machine had just lost 3-0 to get us knocked out of a very winnable cup to a team whose manager was in prison and had a budget a fraction of ours

 

[SirNiNyHotspur]

What’s the point in challenging for top 4 all season when the objective once there is just to make up the numbers, no desire to build on things to ultimately compete to win. (Same goes for stadium, what’s the point)

So what’s the chant at Forest then? “We want Levy & Conte out?”

Conte is already gone, all ire needs to directed at Levy and ENIC, only chance we have of ever winning things. Pep wouldn’t win anything under that lot, no one has or would, manager search is futile. Fuck, I just burnt my grill cheese writing this, fucking Levy…

 

[Albertbarich]

His position is no longer tenable

His recruitment strategy is unhinged, he thinks we should be to how we were under poch

Daniel, the team went against Leicester for the title and your manager had N'Jie on the bench, whereas Arsenal, now have brought in Trossard and a CL winner in Jorginho

Then when you went again for the title, you brought in George N'Koudou. 50% of the transfer were bad under poch, we are lucky we had youth coming through and world class potential before hand to add to those signings

Now this season you sign a wingback for £45m for a manager you knew full well you were unlucky to keep after the summer. Its ridiculous. What if the next manager doesn't want wingbacks, we are fucked

I don't disagree with any of it apart from the untenable bit.

He is going nowhere, the club is a cash marking machine that continues to grow their investment ridiculously and that's all they care about.

Unless thousands and thousands of us boycott games, protest, spend no money in the stadium, hijack concerts, NFL games etc etc then nothing is happening and I'll be honest I'm not going to do any of that.

“Levy made an attempt to buy Tottenham Hotspur from Alan Sugar in July 1998 but failed. Another attempt was made in July 2000 but that was again rejected, however, increasing hostility by fans towards Sugar eventually persuaded Sugar to sell.”

If it helped before I don’t see why it couldn’t again.
