I feel like the Heitinga situation sums up the current state of our club better than any words truly can

Thanks for all he did. Club legend

Honestly, I actually recommend watching the interview. He's not disparaging about the fans, the club, or the players, but just talks about how it is being run

12.02.2026 17:44 β€” πŸ‘ 5    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

But that those who run it are running it in the opposite way to that. We aren't willing to go out and pay wages to rival the big clubs

It's absolutely not justified. He said nothing that we as fans wouldn't. The quote you will see everywhere is "Tottenham say they are a big club, but they aren't" and it's taken completely out of context. He talks about how "to dare to do" is everywhere around the club...

Right? It's not that our players getting booked is wrong, it's that other teams keep getting away with it. The whole point of VAR was to resolve inconsistencies, but it's done nothing of the sort

*been Spurs fans long enough to know

I'm not sure "attempts to pay" really mean anything. I think we've all been Spurs fans to know that a classic play of this club is to say "oh we tried to sign X" in an attempt to pacify fans. Until they stop trying and start doing, I won't believe they have changed

I appreciate you saying that. Have a good day and fingers crossed we get a better manager next time

You'd have thought responsibilities would have been discussed in the interview process...

You had me in the first half πŸ˜‚

At the start we did feel a little more organized (and I mean REALLY early on), but we never felt like an attacking threat, even for one game. Inability to score meant player and fan frustration, meant everything quickly imploded. I still don't get how a supposedly adaptable manager did this.

I'm incredibly jealous, those look so good

And the stadium doesn't even have red fire extinguishers! Levy had so many shortcomings, but he understood that rivalry for sure. Although I'm still mad we've got a red sponsor on our kit

(that's not a "Levy in" comment, but just a realization of how little experience of our club pretty much everyone running it has)

12.02.2026 01:34 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

I am wondering if Levy had still been there, would he have educated Frank on the correct way to talk about the club? A gentle reminder that we shouldn't be talking about aiming to be Brentford or banging on about how good arsenal are. With him gone, nobody in management experienced the rivalry.

Going from cheering for a European cup win, to cheering for the sacking of the man they got in to replace the winner. What an atrocious 8 months

I don't think coming back to him is the right answer. The fact he is telling his players to shut up and play football when they've spoken out about world cup ticket prices is the final nail in the coffin for me

The lack of consistency in refereeing is truly infuriating

He let the players down and the fans down. The number of times he disparaged the club, blamed the fans, and just flat out tried to gaslight us was very far from the image of "nice, charismatic Danish man" that the media talk about

There were so many of this kind of message and social media post from our players when Ange was fired. When I saw them all I knew the board had really messed up.

My agenda? Get a grip. I have been very outspoken against Frank for months on here. I didn't like Frank either, but you are struggling to separate your justifiable dislike of a manager with your assessment of the squad's ability

11.02.2026 22:42 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Literally gave you an explanation of why already. Your OPINION is that our squad should be capable of finishing in what position then?

11.02.2026 22:41 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

When was the last time he played for France? Why did he get frozen out of the PSG team?

11.02.2026 22:38 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Except you are given an opinion. I get you didn't like Frank and you want to defend the squad, but if you can't even admit your own takes are an opinion, that truly is losing the plot

11.02.2026 22:36 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

And there's nothing to substantiate yours either, but attempting to take a realistic look at our squad is not "losing the plot" or whatever else you'd like to paint it as. Your attempts to disparage those who disagree with you and accuse them of saying things they haven't is not a good look.

When half your players are not good enough to play for a top 6 team, you are an upper midtable team
