Jesus Christ how many times.

Liverpool haven’t just built a £600m stadium. They have higher revenue than us to start with. They sold a player for £140m and reinvested the money back in the team.

Does anybody understand strategy? That we were a second tier club with a tiny stadium? That we’ve had to invest massively in our infrastructure to give ourselves a chance of becoming a main player? That that takes time?

In the last 5 years we’ve built the best stadium in Britain off our own backs, and become an established CL club, even reaching the final. To do all that at once is a testament to the way Levy and Poch have run the business and footballing sides of THFC.

Yet some faceless yank who none of you have ever heard of bats his eyelashes and you all want ENIC out? What d’you think this cuuuuunt is gonna do, come in and start spending like Mansour in Harrods? Get real, do some research. He’s a Kroenke, Mike Ashley type, he’d be saddled with the same infrastructure debt ENIC are. We’d be a dot on an investment ledger for facks sake, there to generate a profit for some t0sser abroad who’d never heard of us 6 months ago. Is that what you want for this club?

Honestly I’m embarrassed.

spot on ace ... >applause>
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Erm, why it spot on? What evidence or research has been shown? None.

And don’t we already have an American owner?

The only thing that’s embarrassing is Spurs fans fear of success, seems like that virus runs through the club from the board all the way down to the fans.

I say Levy, bite his f*cking hand off and let’s finally move this club forwards.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes but with respect Sizz you are clueless about football and Spurs in general. For a start, no, we don’t already have an American owner for facks sake
----------------------------------------------------------------------

That`s a bit below the belt to call Sizzle clueless about football and Spurs. He is just as much a supporter as the rest of us. You don`t need to have a MENSA IQ to have an opinion on football. He is just giving his opinion mate, and deserves to be heard.

I myself do not want new owners, I am happy with what we have, but I think Spurs do need to start putting trophies in the cabinet, we are not some small club that has suddenly joined the big boys, we have been one of the great clubs of British football for the whole of my lifetime, even if we have not had much recent success.

Seems there are two camps, those of us who want the very best for our club, and those that are content with safe mediocrity.

It is what it is.

What’s best for the club ? Winning f** all every year ? You been more vocal than anyone in regards to frustrating transfer windows, so don’t start pretending you don’t agree.

No, there are those of us that understand football and business, and those that don’t.

You know what I do understand?

20 years without a trophy.


But you stick with balancing the books/not rocking the boat.

Ace, you really don’t have to be Peter Jones to know what’s best for the club mate. I know about business, I have my own property investment, so don’t start patronising mate about being clueless about business just because a few us want the club to show a bit of ambition. We are just a bit fed up of being nearly men all the time and some of us are not content with all these nice cup runs that lead to f** all. A lot of this is down to the club not investing properly on the playing field, pretty simple mate.

Oh do f*** off Chronic, if you don’t actually have anything constructive to say. I’m not going to change my opinion so give a f** what you think dude

Ace and MK spot on here.

You only have to look at other American owners to know we would be in a much worse situation than we are right now.

Reading through the comments it seems Sizz, Don and others want rich arab investment like city but the problem is that is extremely difficult with FFP now and we can't just do a 'City' or a 'Chelsea'. And to want some yank running us!? Really?

I want to spend more but not the £100m plus some want net.

I don’t want to put the club in danger while we have a huge debt on our hands with the stadium and I definitely don’t want to be changing owners while I’m at it.

I’m all for the club winning trophies and investing in the playing field properly. Our current owners clearly don’t harbour the same ambition. We have won 1 league cup in over 20 years under Levy, go figure. We don’t spend money on the players to push the club forward. I want change and I want a set of owners that are willing to push this club forward in terms of trophies, ENIC clearly are not.

Sigh.

No ambition.

Bit like our club.
----------------------------------------------------------------------



Couldn’t agree more. Ambition to build a fantastic new stadium and facilities etc , I can’t fault that. But our owners do not have the ambition to take us up a level. They don’t spend enough money on the playing field. Before anyone mentions NDombele, exactly like I predicted Levy is trying to claw all that money back with a fire sale.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
don you just don't get it do you mate

fire sale

we build the stadium as the foundation for our future. to attract investment and increased match day revenue to be able to then fund more expensive players and wages.

your stance is absolutely ridiculous. we just smashed our transfer record by 20m ffs, and you are banging on about lack of ambition

We've just built a 900miliion stadium ffs. The progression of Spurs since Levy and Enic have taken other has been gradual but there for all to see. You need to be more patient.

SHOW ME THE MONEY.

If Levy won’t do it (and lets face it looks increasingly unlikely YET AGAIN) get somebody in who will.

mate you need to have a long hard look at yourself. you want someone you know nothing about to take over spurs, despite all the red flags from other clubs about American owners....

the pisssstake is that our chairman is absolutely bossing it, and you want him out.

Well I for one think we are very close, we just got to the final of the CL (which no other Spurs team has done in history btw) and smashed our transfer record to try and get to the next step - winning trophies.

Not sure what more you want!?

Be careful what you wish for. We had American owners that almost put us into administration but thankfully the new ones seem to be very good.
Regarding winning trophies. At the start of the season there are 3 domestic cups and one Euro one depending on which competition you are in. (I am aware you can play in both euro competitions in the same season)
Domestically you are going up against city arguably the best side in the world with unlimited funds and the best manager in the world.
In Europe you are up against the cream of the crop in better squads and teams with more financial clout.
Not wumming but at kick off I think it’s fair to say that most neutral fans would not have spurs as in the top 5 CL contenders.
Winning trophies is very difficult and there are only a small amount to go around
