ENIC / Joe Lewis sale

https://twitter.com/thespurswatch/status/1614033281946624004?s=46&t=a93RLjJH-TFmlps0zzCwYg


I know the mail, but something fishy definitely occurring at Spurs. Dream come true this. Seeing the back of ENIC/ Joe Lewis and preferably that bald bas*** is something i have been pining for years. 100% something is going on and whilst the Qatar investment won’t happen as a full sale, it does seem something is going on in the background. The Qatar investment is exciting, but a full sale to whoever would be a blessing be it a number of investors owning a percentage including the Qatari’s having a slice of the pie or another Owner taking over.


In my opinion, they won’t be missed and maybe someone with ambition to push this club forward on the pitch can eventually take over. I don’t really buy the whole “be careful what you wish for" bulls** either. 23 years with 1 league cup to show for it and countless disappointments by never truly pushing us for success on the pitch, whilst charging the highest ticket prices in Europe is enough proof i need. I have had enough of them and people know my thoughts on this.

Thanks for the stadium and the healthy bank balance, but at the end of the day, you lot are nothing but glorified property developers masking yourself off as Football owners. Balancing the books and building a property portfolio comes first, whilst football is always secondary with this lot. Hopefully and touch wood, we will see the end of it. Some of us have been praying for this day 🙏

Oh and for good measure, #EnicOut #LevyOut

Levy/Enic have served their purpose and taken the club as far as they can. I think we have to give them some respect for their time at the club. Admittedly the trophy count has been awful, however when they came in we were perennially mid table, rarely seeing European adventure, playing in a brilliant but small stadium and miles behind the big boys.

The stadium and regular Champions league football is because of Levy/Enic, no two ways about it, they bank rolled that and we have very much enjoyed it. However, they got to the top table and had no idea what was the dessert spoon. There is a clear lack of strategy at the club currently and it is hurting us.

We either need an ultra rich owner who will bank roll us like City and Chelsea and you would imagine Newcastle now. Alternatively a smart businessman with a solid strategy to get us over the trophy line.

Managerial appointments is what's holding you back as much as anything, they're better owners than Liverpool's in most ways for instance but have stuffed up the most important part

LOL your club wanted Arteta out last season.

Should have said your supporters wanted Arteta out last season.

Including me, I was one of the loudest

But I don't get your point?

Our owners as much as I hate everything about them (billionaires shouldn't exist imo) have found a manager they rate, ignored fans like myself and backed him massively in the market and we're looking a lot better than we have in years. Could and probably will go t!ts up but the owners have backed the manager that's for sure

Unfortunately something our owners have never done

Yeah although I think you did spend fairly well at one point from memory, maybe it was after big sales though. Since they're not really able/willing to spend huge amounts they had absolutely no business hiring Mourinho and Conte, that's what I meant by wrong appointments.

Klopp and the ownere sold big then fixed Liverpool's squad and the rest is history. ETH would've been a much more appropriate appointment for you guys, I'm sure there's plenty of other managers who would suit the spending limitations than the ones Levy went for.

Yeah we need a change. Bring it on.

ENIC have done a good job in building the foundations but time to go! Hopefully we find someone who has the type of wonga they are looking for..

Hopefully we get an owner with ridiculous money to spend , Jeff Bezos would be ideal.

My position has always been the same even when I was criticising ENIC/Levy years ago. I've always wanted them to show more ambition and buck up their ideas. I've never been that keen on becoming just another City or Chelsea type-club and would rather reap the rewards from what our owners have been building themselves by having them deliver. I realise that with 1 cup in 23 years it's hard having faith in them, and with their lack of a push under Poch in particular. I've given them a sort of reprieve lately because they've showed a bit more ambition with the hiring of Conte, the summer transfers which were done in a timely fashion for once. Ultimately from this point onwards they don't really have anywhere left to hide with the new stadium and all the revenue it's generating.

If a new takeover happens I will accept it though.

I did read something a while ago, that stated in the event of Joe Lewis’ death. his wealth & estate gets passed to his daughter… who actually has an interest in Spurs, unlike him!!

Woolwich have backed Farteta that`s for sure, we stole CL qualification off them last season, yet they went on to have a better transfer window than we did. They improved their first XI and squad, whereas Spurs improved the squad depth but failed to upgrade key areas of the first XI. So much for CL qualification giving us a head start in the transfer market, we operated in a similar way as we always do, with Richarlison the only big money signing, who was no doubt signed with a view to Kane leaving this summer anyway.

ENIC, Lewis and Levy have taken Spurs as far as they can, the football club needs a complete reset from the very top, a change of mentality and somebody to take over who is prepared to invest to make us challengers, otherwise we will just get left behind.

Billy, every season they improve one part of the team and never the other. So this season for instance, we are still left with a dog s** defence. They never back a manager fully. Under Levy/ENIC when have you ever been completely satisfied with a transfer window? I think maybe once or twice at the top of my head

Some kind eulogy or ode to Arteta and Arsenal is this? The ones who despite everything written in here frpm "Spurs" fans, always tend to finish below Spurs?
