    We’re never going to be able to compete with the likes of City, Utd, Chavs or even Pool on a financial basis - unless we get new, very wealthy owners, but we should be spending more than we have been.

    We’ve been over a year now without a single signing, whilst we’ve lost the likes of Dembele. Plus we’ve held on to dead wood, like Janssen. Seemingly because we’re asking too much for him.

    It’s poor squad management on Levy’s part, imo.

    Well you showed zero interest in Spurs for 30 years until Bale came along. So I doubt you remember either

    Martin Chivers was my first Spurs hero.

    I think you may have missed my question on the match day thread Kips.

    Do you now think the #spursy tag is justified ?

    To this day he still has no plan B whatsoever and couldn't handle us after Ralph made changes. As good as you were in the first half the way you bottled it to a man and not one player took responsibility. That teams mentality and leadership is an utter shambles considering it's talent.

    I haven’t seen it, but reports I’ve seen say we ran out of steam. Two players were clearly still not match fit - Dier, Dele.

    We’ve been trying to operate on all fronts with a bare bones squad for most of this season.

    Congrats on your win, but don’t overdo it, eh?

    Even Poch said you were arrogant and complacent mate.

    Has much as it is really hard to agree with you....i have to dig deep in to my heart and be truly honest....yup, they bottled it, total and utter shambles but hey mate it was to be expected, like a billion pound stadium built on fantasies, Tottenham will remain trophy less once again, and that's reality, Spurs are in a way like Brexit, a cliff edge waiting to happen <ok>

    I think they are over reaching with a 62k stadium. They've barley been able to fill the lower tier at Wembley at times this season, with a record low of something like 29k. As @Commachio pointed out, even Sunderland have had bigger crowds.

    Spurs seem to have bought into this idea that they are a big club, when in reality they aren't. They don't win trophies, they don't even come close to winning them and now their manager, after hinting his future might lie elsewhere has come out and said he wants to return to Spain to manage.

    The new stadium could be a massive white elephant for them.

    Just a mild observation. Their last league win was:

    upload_2019-3-9_21-10-11.png

    Since then they've picked up 1 point from 4 games.

    On that day they became mathematically certain of avoiding relegation (36 points ahead of 17th and 18th with 12 games to play and those teams still had to play each other).

    Was is a case of job done?

    They did but fans were offered a refund on a game by game basis if they didn't want to go to Wembley which a lot took advantage of.

    They also struggled to sell loads of cheap £5 tickets for earlier round cup games.
