I'm a big fan of what Levy did for us. Probably because, like Levy, I am an 'extremely long term vision' type of person.
It is hard to describe, but for example I would see VALUE in making some big expensive change in my house or garden and spend thousands and thousands on it because it would deliver pleasure back over the very long term. But I would not generally spend a lot LESS on short term items because the value goes and then I regret it afterwards. We are all built different.
For a moment, imagine if Leeds and Cheatski had not cheated back when Ken Bates was involved. Imagine each year that Leeds and Cheatski were still a bit brick and imagine that Spurs finished above them. Imagine all the Champions Leagues we would have qualified for; the money we would have gained and the players we could have signed with that increased revenue. Imagine also the trophies where Cheatski beat us in the Semis or the Final. That is why it is not fair to say "but what trophies did Levy deliver", because it was an unfair situation.
I was thinking the other day that it is the perfect time for him to step away.
Levy is already involved in higher level things but my mind is completely blanking on the actual titles e.g. he is the well respected Head/Chair of the Premier clubs owners (or however it is phrased) and involved in European goings on too.
Other bigwigs like David Dein, Peter Scudamore, Obscene Wanger went on to have roles at UEFA and the Premier League and I can imagine Levy doing similar.
In fact, because I have a similar mindset and approach to Levy, perhaps I have some insight here. If I was him I would dedicate my time to taking down the cheats, reinforcing PSR rules, installing 'fit and proper person' rules, and generally ensuring Spurs can benefit from all the prudent financial decisions he made (and stop Cheatski / BlueCo / CityGroup nonsense).
