The unbelievable logic of an anti-Levy follower


Spurs should spend more on wages than we actually get in income!


I appreciate your wish for Tottenham to be successful but this comment left on the article 'This Deserves A Wider Audience' is unbelievable. The suggestion is pay out more in wages than we actually earn in a year!

The blind agenda is there for all to see.

Yet another self-justificational idiot who's Stockholm Syndrome'd himself into believing the spin Daniel Levy has pushed out. We're a FOOTBALL TEAM. Yes we're also a business, but the reality is ( aside from one horrific Sissoko signing) Spurs are the only EPL to turn a profit over the last 6 years. That's great, if you win championship / cups with frugality. If your aspirations are at the highest level, you need to SPEND like that accordingly.

Every single one of European football's elite SPENDS like they're elite. Why? Because you need to speculate to accumulate. No-one is saying Spurs need to increase their wage bill 100% or throw around £150M. But this team's revenue stream has jumped hundreds of percent in the last ten years. It's about time that revenue was pushed back into the team. It's time we spent like Chelsea, instead of like Southampton.

You apologists make me sick. You seem to forget that Daniel Levy owns about 25% of this team. He's motivated to increase his asset base ( squad, stadium, business ties) while minimizing debt. Because from the first day he became Chairman, his eyes were on selling this team to make a profit.

Our payroll was around £120M before we sold Walker, the top 5 above us are around £200-300M. If you think adding a world class player at £250K a week would break our 'structure' or the bank, then you're an idiot. Our failure to spend is entirely on Levy's personal greed. This team deserves BETTER.

We turned a profit to obtain the best credit to build a new stadium, Is that too difficult to understand?

I'm afraid you are wrong. You can only spend what you can afford to spend or you do a Leeds, QPR, Wolves etc. That is basic common sense. You DO NOT gamble with a clubs financial future, the downside is too great.

You spend like a top club when you have the revenue to support it, we don't, Arsenal revenue is £100m more than us, Man U £200m - we can't spent to their levels, again that is common sense.
You won't have any decent football to watch if you adopt your approach, as failure to achieve then mans the club is financially screwed, which means selling all the best players and arresting a decline.

Your lack of common sense makes me sick, your desire to put the club at risk makes me sick, very few gamblers succeed, gambling with Sours is not a common sense option.

Your fixation on one man is an embarrassment to the fans who support the club.

Your last paragraph shows why you are so wrong.

The top 5 have a £300m wage budget you tell us and demand we pay the same, yet the club doesn't have £300m income!

So we have to spend more in ages than we actually earn every year, brilliant logic, that's really going to put the club on the map and return us to bankruptcy!

Remember ENIC are not allowed to pay player ages.

Your post simply defies belief, common sense totally out of the window.
