I’m a fan of direct action. Unions are fundamentally a good thing.
In some instances, such as dealing with a particularly aggressive GP’s receptionist, civil disorder is wholly acceptable.
This tube strike business is laughable.
A subterranean ‘On The Buses’.
The country is laden with organisations that operate 24 hours a day.
Forget the starting salary of £49,673. The reason these guys are striking is because what they do isn’t vocational and they are fundamentally unprincipled.
Does anyone remember the supermarket strikes when they brought in 24 hour opening?
No, because it never happened. The people who stepped up to take those minimum wage upwards hours had a greater work ethic than these shysters who sit in the front carriage pushing a button to make a train go up and down (and occasionally round and round) a track.
I tell you who should go on strike. Spurs fans. But just like NHS staff, they feel too committed to a cause too long undermined and too horribly neglected.
The money WE pour into football clubs could simply not be parodied.
The minority that go to matches, have to sit and suffer whilst also suffering tedious travel. The vast majority of supporters ‘only’ get to fund the lunacy via their ever increasing satellite subscriptions.
This is why I’m fundamentally at odds with our current Supporters Trust. I’d galvanise supporter’s discontent.
This week’s investment company need to know they could become tomorrow’s appalling headline.
This isn’t ‘throwing stones’, this is taking people’s emotional investment seriously for once; opposed to taking a tenner off them in return for a meaningless ‘dialogue’ with a mob that are using mobster values.
JL: You fill the fakin duffle bag?
DL: Yes sir.
JL: So fak off and do it again.
Unfortunately for him, Pochettino has only two routes left to him by the bag man.
He is either a yes man or he is a man with a plan.
So far, we have seen just one stellar signing.
By stellar, let me be clear; I don’t mean a household name. I mean someone who will clearly be a decisive figure in our next campaign.
Outside of Toby Alderwiereld, we have (comparative with other Premier League sides that are genuinely interested in a top four finish) signed, and been linked with, muck.
The Daily Mail in a piece not vaguely connected to Spurs tonight, there was this line… “Tottenham are unlikely to pursue interest in Basle prospect Breel Embolo with the Swiss club asking for at least £14m for the 18-year-old.”
This is what we’ve become.
Can a single one of you shills reading this genuinely say of any of the halfwits we’ve been linked with this summer, that they fit either a ‘philosophy’ or any recruitment/scouting template of anyone obviously involved in serving up this largely neutered fare from Spurs?
Since Poch and supposedly Mitchell arrived, nothing has changed. Jesus, Baldini is still on the payroll!
Surely if MoPo was really being backed, his backing would be a whole lot more evident than it is now.
Or was his philosophy to demand whatever crumbs from the spreadsheet table might fall his way?
It’s pretty obvious by now that hiring Pochettino was mistake.
Not because he is inept, but because he is happy to be ENIC’s lapdog.
