Spurs thread 2020/21

[LongsightM13]

These sad bastards should be banned from social media for life.

What the fuck is wrong with these wankers?

Some of our overseas fans were at it with Raheem on Saturday as well. Wankers

I hope they are as bad in two weeks but you just know they will turn into 2011 Barca

I can honestly say couldn’t care less who won yesterday as I hate Spurs with a passion

Worst thing they ever did, appointing Jose.

As irritating as he is, I hope if he's sacked at any point he absolutely takes them to the cleaners.

Like Death and Taxes, it's another certainty.

Mourinho is surely finished there with the players after his comments last week about "same manager different players"
Condescending and arrogant.

That said, I wouldn't put it past them beating us in the final in two weeks

I'm hopeful now that the players will just down tools and make sure he is gone. We've seen that done in a big cup game.

Rumour is there's a new follow-up documentary being considered by Netflix: Tottenham Hotspur — Nothing or Nothing.

Tbf it was All OR Nothing. They got the Nothing part.

Not getting the Olympic stadium on the cheap due to an administrative cockup put a major spanner in their grand plan.

Spurs owners obviously saw how much income Afc were making at the Emirates compared to Highbury. This year has probably cost Spurs heavily with no fans, no champions league, no NFL & having to use the Government grant, whether that needs repaying I'm not sure.

If fans aren't 100% allowed back in the Stadiums in August it could mean they have to sell Son & Kane for considerable less than they would like too.

Even if Spurs had won the bid for the Olympic stadium, their plan was to demolish it, build a football specific stadium in its place and pay for the Crystal Palace athletics venue to be expanded and revamped. So it wouldn't have been a cheap option at all.

The £175m Bank of England loan is at a ridiculously low interest rate of 0.5%. Therefore, no problem servicing it. It's due to be repaid this summer but I suspect, given the ongoing COVID impact on business, that the loan period will be extended for another year. As and when it has to be repaid, Spurs have a cash balance in excess of £200m.

So Spurs won't have to sell either Kane or Son. Whether Kane and Son want to want to stay is altogether another matter, though, given the current shitshow!

As I said when I last posted, I haven't been able to bring myself to watch Spurs since early December. That's what Mourinho has done. I was always doubtful about the appointment but was willing to give him the opportunity to prove me wrong. I wasn't.

Spurs fans have become numbed to results and performances like yesterday's. We expect it. And we can't wait for the day that he is gone. From what various ITK's are saying, it's only a matter of when, not if, now. Probably end of season but small possibility it could be earlier. Either way, the decision has been made. He is dead man walking.

And in case I forget in the aftermath, congratulations on your forthcoming EFL Cup win.

Similar to what City did to the Etihad, not sure what the total fee was for TH stadium but what you have quoted would probably have cost a lot less than the loans. Then you add on the loan of a 175m plus lack of fans this season & no one is 100% sure will be back next season it will be a major factor in Thfc finances. If a serious offer comes in for either Kane or Son, would Enic/Levy be able to turn it down.

The cup final isnt a forlorn conclusion, Son nearly always scores against us, you score 1st and we will struggle to break you down & then you throw var into the mix, who nobody nowadays knows whats gonna happen.

This is down to Levy and the rest of the board. They must surely have done a bit of homework on Maureen before appointing him? They must have been aware of the baggage the man brings with him, the chaos he always leaves in his wake, the bloody awful so-called football he gets his sides to play?

If so, why the fuck did they give him the job to start with?
