Does Sheikh Mansour hate/dislike Tony Bloom? Or maybe he is against Spurs in general because their following used to have a large number of Jewish supporters?

Obviously, he doesn't like Crystal Palace because not only do they have two American owners, the two are Jewish and married to (gasp) Jewish women.

Don't forget our friend Roman Abramovich. Though I'd guess being an oligarch people are probably nice to him in person.

I'd guess, following your logic, the Sheikh automatically hates/dislikes Farhad Moshiri. You know, the Sunni v Shiite thing.

Do the Jewish American owners hate Fulham, Hull City, Everton (wow, Moshiri can't catch a break, can he?), Aston Villa,

Which owners dislike Leicester City's owners being as they are Thai? The Chinese owners? I don't even know. What about Barnsley, Blackburn and QPR? They are wholly, or partially owned by Indians. I suppose Mr. Khan from Fulham automatically dislikes/hates them because he is Pakistani.

Many of these men and women who own football clubs are extremely wealthy. They have been much of their lives. They went to school or university with people you say they hate. They do business with people of other nationalities all the time.

The only thing that matters to them, primarily, is money and turning a profit in their businesses. They aren't under educated, xenophobes Blackpool, Dallas, Novosibirsk or wherever.

While I imagine you were intending to stick up for our owner against all these all people that just hate him so much what you did was put accuse people whom you've never met of being racists and anti-Islsm.

My someone is very defensive, i think it is fair to say that our owners do have a harder time against certain owners, and you are the one guessing which is the reason.

You are correct. I am defensive. Automatically assuming an owner of a football club is anti-Muslim merely because they are Jewish is as bad as saying a Muslim person is anti-British or Anti-American or whatever simply because of their religion. Would you not agree?

I guessed nothing. I took the OP's original statement and expanded upon their his/her logic for him/her.

Different Era, the door is essentially closed for new investment of an owners money. We got in before the drawbridge was pulled up.

You could have said owners. You decided it was Jews (and and possibly Jewish Americans). You said, own it.

Alright let's break it down:

Stone is hard, mineral. A monolith. So we're looking for a tough player, a ball winner maybe.

Roses, War of the Roses, Lancashire vs Yorkshire. A battle across the Pennines.

"This is the One". From the album The Stone Roses. There was an unreleased demo from that LP called "Pearl Bastard."

Pearl. Pirlo. Bastard.

We're definitely signing Kalvin Phillips.

Because we are the ones spunking 160m on Kane. Nobody is forcing us to buy him we can move on.

Now I don’t know his worth or anything but you can’t blame the selling club for putting ridiculous prices

You talked bollocks, you have to realise when to stop digging when you've been called out for it.

It is for a player they have no intention of playing. If he was ours we’d have been forced into taking a loan

Well not really considering there was other interest for him he was never gonna go on loan. Can't believe the constant shit our negotiations team get they've given us probably the best squad of players ever seen at any team in the world while buying up the best young talent from every continent in the world and also selling youth players with no first team experience for good money.

I do agree with you on most things but do we give up our religious bigotry for money, does money make us better people?. Your expansion is logical but that person may not be?

Even those commentating on our games who we all feel are part of an agenda against us say we have such a fantastic squad the strongest in Europe
 
I’m on the verge of flapping here. Levy doesn’t want to sell or doesn’t want to sell to us. He’s ‘taking a stand against us and our money’ we don’t have a plan B and don’t trust what we already have. Tell me it will all be ok because Sunday was horseshit!

Yeah, i was confident yesterday and got my second dose of vaccine. Woke up today with pain all over my body and headache. Unable to work has made me start to flap. Need some good old ITK-gossip to pick me up.

Some of us like context and a longer post. It takes about 30 seconds to read at most. Maybe try Twitter if you want lesser characters :)

Fair comment that mate, and I do like Twitter too!

Maybe it’s just me, but on here, I generally won’t bother reading an extended post. I do read longer pieces, but just not particularly about football, as I find there is rarely that much new and insightful to say on the subject (unless it’s something historical perhaps, but that isn’t for me).

There’s a place for it, agreed. A thread or sub-forum for extended writing, for those who want to exhibit or hone their skills in this area, or want to read in-depth, would be my preference.
