Dunno. Aggregators on twitter often misquote or out of context quote gold on numerous occasions. Ally used to reply to them to try and put it straight. I think he just gave up as the kept doing it for clicks.

Dreadful accounts they are, many also make quotes from sources for the likes of SSN etc or foreign sources and you can't find the links for love nor money, by that time the rumours are all over the shop because fans believe what they want...half the issue TBH in my opinion. Twitter for you, no one ever checks source material
 
That's simply not true. It wasn't toxic at all. The atmosphere at Spurs while Harry was manager was excellent. We played good attacking football and, like Pochettino, he had us achieving finishes in the Premier League that surpassed the financial resources provided.

There were a few strange folk on here that didn't like Harry because he wasn't young, didn't wear sharp suits and have a sexy foreign accent but by and large the fans liked him.

Either you have a very bad memory or you weren't around

"rent a quote" "saggy face" "wheeler dealer" they were lots of people on this board and in general who had as much dislike for Harry as people now do for Levy.

Yes, at times when we were playing well the noise dropped (it always does when we win), but a good sized segment hated the guy and couldn't wait for him to fail/get out.
 
I wouldn't blame Pochettino one bit if he turned us down. After the way he was let down before it would take something big to get him back IMO.

You really are funny somedays

- We took Southampton's manager, gave him a squad capable of getting to Cup finals including the CL, capable of challenging for the PL title at least twice and raising his profile to the point where his next job was PSG to go work with Messi, Mbappe & Naymar. And on top of that paid him out a fudge ton when we fired him.
- The guy is constantly flirting with us, has dinner with our players regularly and never has much bad to say about us

But you think he feels hard done by and bears a grudge ...

I don't he's saying that Poch still has a grudge against Spurs. He's saying that Poch may not be sure that he won't be stepping into the same situation as he did the first time, so might not be comfortable taking the Spurs job again. Two different things.

The situation the first time was that we were building a new stadium and funds were tight. We're much better off financially now.

One thing i think any new manager will ask though, is kane staying?
 
During Pochs time, what was it, 2 FA cup SFs, a league cup SF and Final and a Champions League Final.
So in his 5 years plenty of chances to win a trophy, just didn't get over the line so no, the ambition wasn't and still isn't just 4th place.
That was a result of his management not the ambition shown by the board! But I get we are in a better place now with regard to supporting him.

Oh, I totally agree that the situation now is night and day compared to when Poch took over. I was just explaining Finney's comment, which was misconstrued.

As for a new manager asking if Kane is staying, if that's their prerequisite to join us, then they're probably not the manager we should be after. A manager confident in his abilities will take Kane staying as a bonus, not a requirement. The manager we should be after is one that will make the team better than the sum of its parts and be able to adapt when key players are out. Which is one more reason I am so keen on Gallardo: he kept losing his best players, but he still maintained the team at a high level and won trophies.
 
One has to ask why Poch hasn’t been appointed yet especially as it would give us an outside chance of top 4.

That tells you all you need to know.

Apparently Perez wants him to replace Ancelloti when he calls it a day.

All this suggests its not happening!

Anyone looking at things logically rather than emotionally should see that Conte isn't getting sacked until top 4 looks beyond him - we're currently still in the mix.

Defeat on Saturday might tip the balance

We will obviously win tmrw but equally obvious is we stand no chance of top 4 as this better than average mentally weak bunch will win most of the remaining home games and very rarely win any of the remaining away games. This will include a 100% inevitable loss at anfield.

Levy also knows all this…

Very rarely win away games even though we're 6th in away games this season (5W 3D 5L)...
 
I’m talking about here and now not earlier in the season.

If you analyse the current state we are in it seems fairly obvious to me we will win hardly any of our remaining away games.

We will find out in the next couple of months!
 
Yup, when things go well it's despite the board and when things go wrong it's the boards fault...
His Champions league squad had Winks Sissoko, Dele Rose at left back, a perma crock in Wanyama and a geriatric llorente up front. None of whom any other manager got a tune out of. That wasn't a team that was built for the champions league or any ambition of success however you want to spin it. Which was probably why the results were going south in the league.

I suggested a few weeks ago that we should replace Conte when we somehow found ourselves still in the FA Cup and Champions League as well as in a strong position in the league despite some real structural issues with performances. My feeling was we needed to make the change to avoid squandering the fortunate position we were in. A bit like Chelsea had done in the past and had gone on to win trophies the same season they made the managerial change. Unfortunately we stuck with him and now have only one of those 3 success scenarios left and even that is looking precarious. I think the board made an error sticking with him.
