    Wasting all that time with Lenadro. We could've signed any number of strikers in that time.

    At least help Arry turn one result in the final third of the 2011-12 PL season from a loss to a draw.

    Buying David Bentley? The Ice Bucket Challenge? Letting Christian Gross take the tube?
    Failing to buy out Southampton's clauses on Gareth Bale? Oh wait, he did that...

    Selling Carrick and Berbatov (with only Campbell coming in for loan), buying Bent and Bentley, missing out on Moutinho. Sacking Jol and/or Redknapp.

    Ah, so it was. I was allowing our consistent cheapness on transportation to blend things together.

    I would imagine the way he handled the removal of Martin Jol must be of huge regret to him. If it isn't then it damn well should be. I hope he feels he should have done things completely more civilised and less underhand.

    In more recent times, he should surely wish he hadn't embarrassed the club with this ludicrous and two-faced arrangement with Stub Hub.

    Making it a million pound fine to order lasagna.
    Forcing Fabio Capello at gunpoint not to quit in the midst of the PL season--and/or forcing the FA have a replacement ready to announce the nanosecond Capello stepped down.

    So many to choose from.

    The one thing he likes which I don't is the DoF role he keeps persisting with.

    :D

    It'd be interesting to hear Levy's answer but I genuinely don't know what he'd say. Hindsight's a wonderful thing, everyone would have regrets if they looked back at things that went wrong/could've gone better. I'd have stuck money on Liverpool, United and us losing this weekend if I could go back in time. go back further and I'd have invested in Minecraft and Facebook too, they're both worth billions now.

    When the Holy Grail of Champs league was finely attained, showing the clubs true colours
    with meagre investment , making it impossible to retain qualification .
    Supporting Harry with players that when we had a chance of the league title but his frugality cost any chancre.
    Not the mad decision of hiring damaged cheap AVB.
    Transfer policy of buying mainly quantity over quality for resale .
    Actually not selling best players and constantly destabling the team.
    Not trying on the bitter move to Strafford.

    In other words not on a mission to Stifle Spurs of any glory.

    He should really think whether this game of rotate the manager works - and then vow to stop doing it. Changing the manager has many other consequential changes and is destabilising and generally expensive for any club.

    God knows, Utd are suffering the full effect of the this presently.

    Choose a manager, back him, accept it takes time to achieve results.

    Sign Suarez? Ok, he's a twat, but look at the goals. Not to mention the sell-on profit. I'm sure the missed profit alone would be one of Levy's great regrets.

    Do you remember Keith signing Ossie and his cup winning mate?
    Could you see Daniel letting Keith buy them?I can't.

    We've bought so many lame ducks it's unbelievable.But Bentley and Jenkins were the worse in my time.At least Jenkins was a swap,but Bentley was money thrown out the window.What was his problem?

    It's quite possible that a couple of todays crop may prove to be as bad......time will tell! Please prove me wrong lads!!!!!!!
