2. Spurs’ historic low​

Ange Postecoglou and Thomas Frank have each overseen 25 of Tottenham’s past 50 league games — and that period has produced the club’s lowest 50-game points haul since 1913-15, counting three points for a win throughout. Frank has contributed 29 points and Postecoglou 18 to that meagre tally of 47.

Sitting only six points above the bottom three, they are the closest to the relegation zone that any “big six” club has languished after 25 games of a campaign since Spurs themselves in 2008-09.

He should just shut up full stop.
 
Not strengthening in January is completely inexcusable. It doesn't matter if they think the squad would be bloated or players are coming back from injuries, who gives a fudge about that. We need points, and new players.

Idiots

Not getting extra heads in Jan was bemusing, it's going to see us relegated.

West Ham look a different side with a couple of new heads in.

The squad is easily good enough to finish in the top half. Tonight's team was easily good enough to beat a fairly gash Saudi Sportswashing Machine.

The (lack of) tactics are a far bigger problem.

Says it all that yesterday we lost again and are now five points outside the drop zone, only thanks to United getting a 96th minute equaliser.

Yet it seems the clubs priority yesterday was launching the new pre match wear.

I know these things happen, but it really is stupid optics and tone deaf the way this club puts itself into such a pit out on the pitch and yet constantly has the “wanna buy this?” mentality.

Improve the side which relates to the actual reason we exist.
 
Is there anyone left who still think they should be in charge of our club? They are happy with finishing in the top 4, didn’t understand that to bridge the gap between 4th and being perennial title contenders you need to bring in quality players and not backups and didn’t feel we needed to spend in the last window despite circling above the relegation zone. They don’t get it in any aspect.

This has been a constant with the club for about three decades - since before ENIC, with Scholar and Sugar, but ENIC certainly carried on with it.

There's a terminal lack of emotional intelligence at the club, and a preference for the sort of lifeless corporate-speak that inspires no one and leaves you feeling like you're talked at, not to. This permeates the club, from the boardroom to the stands - and sometimes leaves it looking like it would much rather be a 'regular' business on the stock market than, y'know, a football club with a 144-year history.

And the result is the sort of PR nightmares we regularly generate, that few others seem to. Like launching the new pre-match wear with 'we thrive in darkness' or some such nonsense while the club is battling relegation. Or cheerfully plastering 'Classic Tottenham' all over the screens as we're being walloped by any and all opponents that arrive. Or reacting to widespread discontent by making it harder to give up your seat without penalties.

It's lifeless decisions made by suits that barely understand football, or people.

Of course and I don't disagree, but not being funny, CFT are a joke, they are hardly in a position to be making statements, their "walkout" was a shambles

They can be arseholes, but the rest of us who continue to shell out, have a moan on a forum, and continue to turn up are probably just as big a set of mugs.
