That's why I said 'We've got a lot right but in the other direction' but I was responding to someone's point that you could just copy our transfer moves and gazump us. We've done some very good deals, but we've also done some awful ones
My fear is that as we approach season 18/19 and relocate to our NWHL the team will be decimated. Hope I'm wrong.
Just goes to show how football is slowly dying when a team who are trying to do things the right way struggle due to not having mega bucks.
Spot on, the modern game stinks and the worse part about it is that there are a lot of fans who want us to do what the doped clubs do and think its the right way to go. I love Spurs, i used to live for the game but i will not shed a tear when it all blows up in the faces of those who who think/want us to go down the route of those doped clubs.
Lets see if we struggle. Last season we didnt and I dont think we will this.
Every bubble bursts. At some point the money will go out of football and it will become less popular again. I don't want our club's future to be at risk when that happens.

I haven't seen anyone suggest doing anything which puts the long term future of the club at risk

Plenty are calling for us to spend more to complete deals early in the window and to significantly increase our wage bill.
we can do both of those things without risking our future afaic
Not if we increase wages beyond a sustainable level and rely on our owners bankrolling transfers. I know that most people are not calling on us to do that but some are.
We don't have to increase beyond a sustainable level that's the point - spending more money doesn't only mean spend beyond our means and it's tiresome to see that as a response every time someone says we could be doing more with what we have than what we are doing
Fair point, but who is in the best position to judge what is a sustainable level, Levy or the fans who in all reality have no idea what we have or not have?
Well I'm not really inclined to believe something just because it's what I'm being told - I can weigh things up myself and form an opinion

There you go then, football fans with opinions know better then the man who has ALL the information at hand. Do you not see the weakness in that point?
