Levy gone!

Never took the club anywhere near winning the league despite having the likes of kane, bale etc. Both those players had to leave to win trophies elsewhere
They last won the league in the 1961/62 season - they got the double - then boy did they moan when John Moore's bankrolled us to take the title of them the season after - claiming it was wrong for us & sign anyone we wanted .....
 

Apart from when we came 2nd?

How would you judge him, would he be you're Bill Kenwright? Only thing I'd say over the years he made you stronger, had a better football brain and a much more astute business mind when it came to football. Also you won trophies with him and played in Europe for 18 out of the twenty years he was involved. Apart from that :Blink: not much difference..
 

Commercially our best ever chairman and part of his spreadsheet success allowed the club to build significantly.

Football wise, there are dinosaur dumps that have more knowledge than he did. The master of finding a fiver but losing a tenner.

Some of Levy’s greatest hits:

Replacing Berbatov with Frazier Campbell
Sacking Jose 6 days before the league cup final
Sacking Martin Jol at half time of a Europa game we won 5 or 6 nil
Taking the cost of 2 Spurs shirts given to the chairman of Zagreb off the transfer fee for Luka Modric
Backing Harry Redknapp in the winter window when we were 3rd by buying OAPs Louis Saha and Ryan Nelson
Going an entire summer window without buying a player
Then sacking Poch after he guided us to the CL final despite not buying anyone.

There’s loads more, when it came to football Levy was nuttier than squirrel turd. In a weird way I will miss him. On the other hand, if the rumours of a Qatari takeover are true then with our FFP headroom we could be finally dining at the top table

I mean it could happen but think just about every club has had ‘rumours’ of a Middle East/ Qatari consortium taking over. Absolute catnip to fans.

Not exclusive to spurs but the way fans would take success no matter the moral implications always makes me feel sick.

Very shrewd.
