What will Daniel Levy's End of Season Open Letter say??

I can't wait to read this see what the greedy little cretin has to say for himself.

Whoa! Personal abuse of Levy is completely unwarranted. He made a bad call in appointing Sherwood, but desperate times call for desperate measures. If you want to see what greedy looks like, try Ridsdale and look at Leeds. Or Kazam at Oxford. Our Chairman loves the club.

We were hardly desperate. Had we won that game against Pool we would have been 3 points behind them. As t was we were still either 4 or 6 off of 4th at the point AVB was out.

Anyway, I think it's gotten so bad that if Levy does release an end of season message, their genuinely needs to be an apology contained within. The amount of hiding a we have received is simply unacceptable.
 
We may well only be punching our weight this season, but I think what gets people is the element of tragedy (the essence of which being avoidability) in the way that, prior to finding ourselves where we are now, we singularly failed to take advantage of top 4 rivals having to take standing count after standing count.
 
yep, it was there for the taking and we ****ed it up, typical ****ing spurs

I don't think we are ever gonna get there
 
I'm hoping that, given Levy will want to sound positive/optimistic in his end of season letter, that he'll fire TS before the end of the seaosn and have Van Gaal signed and sealed. If we end the season with that cretin Sherwood in chrage, its difficult to see how he can be positive

Reports in the Romanian media claim that Steaua Bucharest owner, George Becali, is ready to launch a takeover bid at Tottenham. #THFC
 
From prison?

I think this will be it....

I wanna go home
Take off this uniform
And leave the show

And I'm waiting here in this cell
Because I have to know
Have I been guilty all this time
 
There's pretty much a preview on the OS now, under financial results. It includes a statement by Levy, which I think is basically his defence to the growing criticism he has got this season.
 
Daniel Levy said:
Our financial position is key to ensuring we can continue to thrive both on and off the pitch and we have taken the necessary, prudent steps to ensure that we are in a secure financial position as we move forward.

At the time of this announcement, we are in sixth position in the Premier League and it has been another season when the top four places have been fiercely contested by at least seven teams. It is no surprise that the English Premier League is the most watched League in the world as every season the fight for a top four UEFA Champions League place becomes more competitive.

We have come far in the last decade - we have raised our expectations from a Club aiming to be in the top half of the table, to competing in Europe each season - to the point at which we find ourselves disappointed if we don't make Champions League.

This season we have had to make significant changes, both in respect of coaching and playing staff and yet we are currently only two points less than last season’s tally. Whilst this season’s performances and results have not lived up to expectation, we believe our squad has potential and it is important that we all now show commitment and teamwork to get the best possible finish to the season.

We have fantastic, strong support. Our current 36,000 seater stadium sells out and the waiting list for season ticket holders is currently in excess of 47,000. We cannot stress strongly enough how critical the new stadium is over the long-term to these raised expectations. We have the smallest capacity stadium of any club in the top 20 clubs in Europe, let alone the current top four Premier League clubs, and given we now operate within UEFA Financial Fair Play rules, an increased capacity stadium and associated revenues is fundamental to supporting the future ambitions and consistent achievement at the top of the game.

Our focus therefore is to continue to invest in and develop the squad - we shall not look to a summer of major upheaval, but rather to strengthen in key positions - to play the style of football for which we are famous - and to deliver the new stadium.

The new stadium is a landmark project, of importance not just for our Club , but to the regeneration of an area which has been our home for more than 132 years and to London as a whole. It will be a key regenerative component of the local economy and a significant tourist attraction in its own right.

To anyone visiting Tottenham today, our commitment to delivering the new stadium project and associated regeneration is clear for all to see - Phase 1 is built, the Club-sponsored Tottenham University Technical College is due to open this Summer, 447 jobs have been delivered to date and some 9 acres have been cleared in readiness for the stadium development. We eagerly await the outcome of the CPO decision by the Department of Communities and Local Government.

We are optimistic for the long-term future and believe our efforts will make this great Club even greater over time. Our supporters are our life-blood and we shall ensure that they are our most important stakeholder as we move forward.

Don't doubt his business acumen, and I love his professionalism, that statement doesn't really answer the criticisms of his football expertise though.

It also doesn't tell us why he spent an 18 month contract on an amateur to cover a 6 month caretaker role, despite offers from real, professional football managers to do the role for 6 months.

Your answer lies in the question…somewhat. He wants LVG or FDB (likely LVG given that everything is technically 'in place')…so which manager would come in for a 6 month contract? Glenn? Not a chance. I know he wanted to come back (he could do some great stuff with that squad) but not for 6 months. Try 3 years. And DL is not interested in that. So Pleat or Sherwood. And Sherwood lobbied hard (we all know that!)…I'm prepared to bet that nobody thought he would crack under pressure like he has in the last few weeks (the yelling, screaming, etc)...
