List of worlds billionaires fyi. It’s unlikely anyone with less than £10b would be able to invest into the club further.

Anyone.

Mike Ashley
Prince Andrew.
Donald Trump.
Putin.

I would hate our club to be taken over in a man city style, doesnt mean its wrong it just doesnt sit right with me. I think the money has been there from this board but the recrutiment has not been the best.

Get a decent dof and invest wisely. Spent north of 100 mill last tear and apart from Gio it looks a bit of a waste atm

I hate the whole would we replace them with’ argument. I literally couldn’t tell you who out there would consider it. I don’t know any billionaires or consortiums and even if I did I wouldn’t know what they had planned, the same as I’m sure Liverpool fans didn’t know an American baseball club owner was willing to buy them and get them to titles.

What I do know is Enic have robbed us of our club. They have failed to invest when we could of won big things. They have sacked several fan favourite managers. They have charged us some of the highest ticket prices in the world. They are only interested in money. They are not interested in winning things.

But hey, keep buying that spurs bottle brush in the huge spurs shop in that shopping mall stadium. You could probably get a discount on your guns and roses tickets or maybe see Anthony Joshua box there.

Forget about the football because Enic have.

Don`t care who it is as long as they have some ambition to win silverware. ENIC`s business model does not win trophies.

Morning Eden.

What I don’t get is that you have a quality front 3 in son, kane, and Moura.

Build the team around that, those 3 should be offering 40-50 PL goals for starters.

PL goals a season *<

Moura is not good enough to start for us.

Agree. Know this isn’t really the thread but anyone else think that NDombele was terrible when he came on?! His passing was all over the place, touch was off and he didn’t look like a footballer.

He was our best outfielder.

I think we all accept we are powerless and they will be around for a long time.

But I'm glad the fans are sending a message we're not happy with the direction the club are going in.

Football clubs are unique. In any other walk of life if I was as unsatisfied with a company as I am currently am with spurs I'd have long stopped buying their product. But I know I'm just going to pay my deposit for my season ticket next month...

Moura flatters to deceive

Capable of taking the game by the scruff of its neck (eg Ajax) but those performances are few and far between. Half the time he looks like a 15 year old playing with adults.

Son is infuriating. Can be ridiculously good but then can go five games without doing anything.

Our attack should be doing a lot more though with the players we have.

Kane also needs to stop trying to do everything
For starters take him off free kicks. He's not very good at them

posted on 11/7/20

True Irish, he’s always been rubbish at them

posted on 11/7/20

I don't get it Palmer's. He seems to be trying to do everything to the detriment of his strengths. Just stick to what you are good at.

Here's the thing, I don't want to be owned by a billionaire Saudi who is going to just throw money at it to win stuff, a la City. I like that we have English owners, I just want them to show a bit more ambition. My ideal scenario is for us to stick with these guys and have them start changing their ways. We now have the new stadium and when football and life as we know it is up and running again the money should be coming in. We'll only know then if them changing their approach is ever going to seriously happen I guess.

I was pleased we were breaking our record to go after a sought after player in Ndombele, and even though I never wanted him and him not being the right fit, going for Jose also showed a level of ambition we weren't used to based on his CV, so there are glimmers of hope they could be changing, but decisions need to be improved and without money being so much at the forefront of their thinking.

Yeah really sad about Jack, mate

He did really well as manager of ROI in 90 and 94 as well

Only one of those three (Kane) would start in your front three. Son is talented but very head down - Moura isn’t talented and is very head down.

I honestly think they will, or planned to. But we have lost probably hundreds of millions in revenue next season due to no more concerts/boxing matches/rugby games/NFL.

To be fair to Levy/ENIC (I don’t know whose responsible) they have reinvested all profit into the club - we are just finally at a stage where the infrastructure doesn’t need investing in anymore.

I'm with you here.

Though they need to admit that the Jose appointment was a huge mistake. I wouldn't want to give him money to spend. I'd much rather cut our losses and start next season with a new manager.

Jose Out

But is the profit that they've put into the club about making more profit or making the club more successful on the pitch. That's what we'll find out through the next seasons. They can't get away anymore with these missed transfer deals to save a few bucks.

It's a tricky one because it's only fair a manager gets time with his own players. But then you have to commit to him and the idea of committing to a potentially past it manager whose football is poor and never lasts longer than 3 seasons is a risky one.

The main issue is the supply to the front 3, it's been non existent
