If you have been unimpressed with Nuno’s defensive tactics in the first three games, you’re going to be shocked now when you witness how he reacts to a heavy defeat!

Jose has got nothing on this guy when it comes to parking buses.

OP

LOL how can a Spurs supporter say they would prefer to watch Leeds v Liverpool to Spurs.

I take it you are one of the johnny come lately suppoters of the past decade, if that.

You do know you support your club through thick and thin, through good and bad, through wins and losses.

Some supporter you turned out to be.

Just out of interest, how long have you actually been supporting Spurs?

And if you are not interested in Spurs, would you actually mind giving up your season ticket to a Spurs supporter that does actually care. There is a huge waiting list.

I'm 32 and have had a season ticket most of the time since I was 8/9

Am I allowed to have an opinion based on that?

As I said 'm not fussed about winning or losing, but I hate negative boring football, and that's all we have seen for two years now.

Potter was the obvious choice in the summer, instead it's another season of tedium.

Of course you are entitled to your opinion, nobody said you were not. But I get the impression you are just a fair weather supporter, only interested when Spurs are winning, and not interested when they lose. Your call though fella, you do what you want.

I’m 43 and this is the worse I’ve felt about supporting the club

There doesn’t seem anything to be excited about

Keeping Kane was a bad move ….as predicted by a few of us he didn’t want to be here and it definitely showed yesterday

Never keep players who are desperate to move

Completely agree with the sentiment of it’s not the winning or the losing , it’s we aren’t being entertained

I saw some dross in the 90’s but we still entertained!

Jose started this rot and Nuno looks like he is going to play in the same way

Playing Chelsea next in the league couldn’t be worse timing !

Nuno is going to have the fans on him quickly ! Jose was lucky he didn’t have to deal with that

Negative, boring football won Leicester a title, are you saying you would not have been happy with that? There is more than one way to play football, you do know that. Not every team can play like peak Barca.

Yes but our very own chairman said we would go back to an attacking, exciting brand of football. Fans have a right to complain about this. But don't waste your time getting on Nuno's back, he's a nice guy just doing his job the way he sees fit. Blame the people that brought him to the club.

I know it's seen as being disloyal etc but I feel similiar to what Gil is saying. I feel its abit of a "chore" at the moment with Spurs. Doesn't feel like there is alot of hope or optimism around the club and the football is literally the worst football out of any team in the PL.

I still have my ST but I now also go and watch my local non league side. They honestly play more attractive football and I never feel short changed.

Il never stop supporting Spurs, but I will admit when it's tough. I know Spurs have had far worse sides than this, but this feels as bad as its been the last few years since I have been a supporter.

Which part of him wanting to be entertained do you not understand? Everyone supports their team for different reasons - OP wants to watch good football, win lose or draw. His support is just as valid as yours, as are his reasons for losing interest.

My thoughts exactly Blackpole

The only times I have hated watching spurs are the AVB and Jose days. Results wise they were probably on par with Jol, but they were mind numbingly dull and clearly taking us in the wrong direction.

Nuno will most likely go the same way as his compatriots. The only difference is he's a thoroughly likeable human being unlike the other two cants.

Yeah AVB was dull and boring and as bad as Jose but we had bale who got us off our seats then so it was sort of bearable

I like Nuno the bloke…..seems like a nice chap and he conducts himself well unlike Jose

I don’t blame him for what we are seeing ….we all knew what we were getting

Levy has short changed us again after promising us some excitement

Fella nobody is forcing you to support Spurs. You know you are free to support Chelsea, City or United at any time you want.

If you want to make it toxic, I suggest you stay away from WHL, and let us supporters that get behind the team through thick and thin get on with supporting the club.

Problem is we left the appointment of an attacking manager to an Italian

Fans have no right to complain just because Spurs lost one game out of four. And that was because of very mitigating circumstances.

if Spurs had lost all four games this season, you may have a point, but they have won three, so your point is invalid.

The nonsense about attacking football all the time, is a myth. You play a game of football to win by whatever means it takes.

So many teams have won trophies by playing absolute dross.

lets face it none of us are glory hunters by supporting Spurs

i want to see some entertaining football tho,considering i pay nearly £1000 for my season ticket i'd say that's not much to ask for

Levy had to be shown a video of Nuno's Valencia side to prove that his team can play attacking football,Levy should have known we ain't going to play free flowing football after watching his Wolves team ffs.

as others have said it's just not enjoyable watching us at the moment.

I hope things get better but not holding my breath.

Oh come on Bake em, the atmosphere at WHL for the City and Watford games was out of this world. There was absolutely not a negative vibe in the ground.

The only negativity I always seem to see is on this board.

I am seriously thinking of leaving this board for good. It is so toxic.

“It’s no use just winning, we’ve got to win well.”

“We must always consider our supporters, for without them there would be no professional football. It would be better to have more fans watching football the way they like it played, rather than have a few fans watching football the way we would like it played.”

I have enjoyed every game I have been at WHL this season Hounslow, so not really true to say none of us are enjoying it.

Are you saying you did not enjoy the wins over City and Watford?

It`s still early days, lots of players now missing, so I think we all need to give the team and the manager a break, instead of jumping straight on them at the first Prem defeat. Although it was very predictable.

I know you are a loyal supporter Hounslows, but very few off the board actually go to WHL anyway.

The City game was superb in terms of performance and atno, I agree.

I understand what u are saying but I also believe the club need to start matching the ambitions of a so called big club. We haven't won a trophy in 13 years. I know it's not all about trophies but we are Tottenham Hotspur. We are a club that deserves so much better than we are getting.

I'd say its about time the fans strayed giving Levy a much harder time and demanding success. Not making up excuses and declaring blind loyalty irrespective of where it takes us.
