    Ange departs

    I would love a manager who will win a trophy and that be the basis of sustained success for the club rather than the trophy being a one off and having to wait 18 years for another. If we stay with Ange, imho, it will be the latter and we are now in a better position to achieve the former.

    Yes because keeping Ange would not be in the best interests of the club’s future. I am sure I don’t need to remind you that the last trophy winning managers were George Graham and Juande Ramos. Winning a cup competition does not mean you are the right person for the club.

    1st 2 lines correct; last line incorrect.

    Read my post again and stop with the hyperbole.

    Why? I suspect there are many fans who are like me.

    Politics, politics, politics (so long and thanks for all the fish)

    True re good and bad ones but that distinction is becoming less and less. Even "good", well run authorities are struggling these days, irrespective of whether they are Labour, Tory or LD run. Reform will find that out for themselves soon enough. If you think you can distill the interwoven...

    Politics, politics, politics (so long and thanks for all the fish)

    There is far less scope to escape scrutiny at a local level because it covers the every day things that the general public care about like planning,social care, rubbish collections and local crime issues. I think Reform will find it tough Tbh. I have yet to see how Reform intend to tackle...

    What is a reasonable amount of negativity for a team that has lost 18 league matches in a season? I think Ange is being disingenuous. It’s up to him to give the fans and media something to be positive about. Especially the fans who have given him lots more leeway than other managers.

    I am really conflicted tbh. I would love a trophy. But if it means him staying on, I think I would choose him leaving first. The league is where it's at ultimately and his inability to deal with that speaks volumes. With a better manager, our improved recruitment and bigger spending power, I...

    I know it's about opinions but I think he's an excellent player. But as you say can be inconsistent. But then all of our midfielders can be that.

    *** Tottenham Hotspur v Bodo/Glimt *** Semi final , 1st leg 1/5/25.

    I think you are being a bit unfair here. There is already a significant difference in the resources between Spurs and Bodo. So a couple of players out for a relatively small squad is huge in terms of bridging that gap especially against a much richer, more accomplished PL team. Bournemouth also...

    *** Tottenham Hotspur v Bodo/Glimt *** Semi final , 1st leg 1/5/25.

    Thought Bodo were really poor. Hopefully should progress next week but let's face it we can't defend. But their pitch is made for attacking by all accounts so tie is far from over despite their home record.

    I don't think that's the modern game per se that has done that. Rather it is something peculiar to British football. Spanish teams for example, are still very technically adept as shown in last year's Euros. And back in the 80s, Glenn Hoddle for all his prodigious creative ability was still only...

    I ve said the same thing before. He is only pragmatic when his back is up against the wall. If he feels that the game is not a "must win," he reverts to type. There are 2 things wrong with that in my opinion 1) in terms of league games I think he has gotten his priorities utterly wrong and that...

    If we are getting criticism for chanting (not that I have btw), "you don't know what you're doing" at matches or calling him a snake oil salesman then tbh it's reaching the point where saying anything negative will be frowned upon. These are fairly benign statements. They are are not comparable...

    ***OMT*** Tottenham Hotspur v LiVARpool - Sunday April 27th 4.30pm

    Possibly because at the time of that win City's press had lost its intensity giving our gk and defenders more time to play out?

    ***OMT*** Tottenham Hotspur v LiVARpool - Sunday April 27th 4.30pm

    And I am sure I saw Ange shaking hands with Slot before the final whistle! I know it seems like beat up on Ange season, but he doesn't help himself. Showed his thoughts weren't really in the game yesterday. I remember Roy Keane kicking off at Mourinho, I think, when he tried to do a Slot when...

    Thought Palace were brilliant. Hope they beat City which I know is a long shot!

    I know I sound like a broken record mate, but I still maintain he needed to play his first choice 11 in the league and rotate them in and out. He has lots of options. He did not need to field "weakened teams." The bigger picture if he gave a brick, was for him to show we could be a well drilled...

    He could have gone for Europe through the league even relatively late on. The league is not great, which makes our struggles in it even worse.
