O/T Sad day for Spurs.

I hope this doesn't bite them. Better the Devil you know and all that. 1 league Cup. Two League Cup Finals. Champions League and Super Cup runners up. 2nd and 3rd placed finishes in the Premier League. Numerous F.A Cup Semi Finals and a Europa League Final win.

Two trophies when they've competed with 5 other massive clubs in England at their pomp plus big boys in Europe for at least the last ten to twelve years.

Then there's the magnificent stadium, being well run with a reasonable wage structure.

A bit gutted to be honest.

 

I don’t understand

Sorry Levy resigned.

 

I think it might av had summat to do with the fans hating him, demonstrations an protests.

 

I get that but they're idiots. You have six big clubs in England fighting for 3 trophies. The fourth is invitational depending on League and F.A Cup. Six onto three doesn't go. Then factoring in Europe our six v 30 in the Champions League or our two v 70 in the Europa or Conference Leagues.

That's six teams going for four trophies one of which is against the best in Europe.

I can't see how any Spurs fan can call Levy a failure.

 

"Super Cup runners up", like it. You mean they lost a game!

 

Plenty of teams would take him and his record tomorrow

 

Our household had a chess tournament last week and I finished runner up. There's only me lives here.

 

Incredible businessman. No interest in winning anything.

 

Daniel Levy is undoubtedly a shrewd operator and has played a key role in keeping Spurs competitive both domestically and in Europe. Under his watch, the club has established itself as a consistent challenger and built one of the most impressive stadiums in the world—an asset that should secure their financial competitiveness for years to come.

That said, Spurs are a major club—one of the traditional "big five"—and this level of performance is the baseline expectation for an institution of their stature. For much of Levy’s tenure, the club was also backed by Joe Lewis, one of the wealthiest individuals in the country, which further raises expectations.

Where Levy has sometimes faltered is in his pursuit of the perfect deal. After the Champions League final loss to Liverpool, it was clear to most neutrals that a rebuild was needed, with several players ready to move on. However, Levy’s insistence on extracting maximum value from each transfer often delayed that process, leaving the squad stagnant at pivotal moments. This stubbornness, while financially cautious, may have cost Spurs crucial opportunities to push forward.
