Club Statement 19 Nov 19 - Pochettino leaves

[Cambridge Spur]

Sad sad day but inevitable unfortunately. As much as I loved Poch, he’s now a broken man. He wanted out and has done for a long time. Levy will get the blame and the media will hammer us as usual but a lot of this was caused by Poch himself. I just wish he would have resigned with dignity.

 

[Bobbins]

I can only imagine it's come about this suddenly due in part at least to player power.

Kane looked really fucked off the last few games, as have others. If he and some other senior players went to Levy to talk about change that would've had a serious effect on the decision.

 

[Spurus]

Thanks Poch for all the good memories, in the end it wasn't meant to be.

 

[ziggy]

The Amazon Documentary is gonna be mental

They probably said to levy they'd pay pochs severance just for the drama to spice it up a bit

 

[riggi]

At least West Ham will be fearing our sacked manager "bounce"

They are weirdly.

Paul Smith gets the gig to speak on SSN on behalf of online Spurs forums? You need to up your games, @Rob, @Archibald&Crooks and @Dougal. Sort it out, lads.

 

[Twizzle]

I’ve been following the odds and they are changing by the minute
mourinho was 1/5 went out to 5/4 back to evens
Benitez was 12/1 backed into 3/1 now back out to 14/1
Howe was 9/1 backed into 5/4 now out to 3/1
Allegri was 9/1 went out to 12/1 now backed into 3/1

this is within the last half hour

which sorta shows no one has a clue right now

 

[DomXYZ]

victim of a bad situation...think we all know if he was backed properly over the years he wouldn't have left. made some mistakes himself but hope he does well at his next club as long as its not an english club.

that said very very excited to see who we get next.

 

[ilikeost]

I've been angry with the state of the club like most people but never really been firmly Poch in or out. Now that he is gone I almost feel sick... It's so fucking terrible that it had to end like this.

 

[Mr Pink]

Harry Redknapp was the only one to look at our league form properly, like from last February.

Most others conveniently ignoring how poor we've been from last January.

 

[CowInAComa]

Don't be daft, Jose spent a fucking fortune at Man United and left them in complete chaos. Imagine what he could do with us. I actually think he'll be good for a few years, not the point though is it, we'll be broken, properly broken when he goes.

Honestly. I am not sure how I feel about Jose, but you dont honestly think that Levy will suddenly go all doe eyed over him and start buying 30 year olds for 40million do you?

 

[tttcowan]

Pull yourself together

No, I'm sorry right. It's perfectly reasonable for people to lose their shit over this.

 

[TheVoiceofReason]

Last sentence of the statement, IMO means we definitely have somebody lined up already.

[13VanDerBale13]

Look what he said when Leicester appointed Ranieri / sacked him, lets wait & see what happens before judging the future

 

[$hoguN]

Bye Pochettino, thanks for the amazing memories. It was time but that doesn’t change the impact that was made

 

[mark87]

We definitely have someone lined up, we're mid season so we can't take our time.

 

[scat1620]

Agree with this, there's a lot of raw feelings right now but you can't say Levy hasn't done the right thing here.

He has... but he's done it too late. Come on Shady, join the dark side: #PochOut AND #LevyOut...

 

[markiespurs]

Fuck sake!

I can't see why they didn't sack him last week if they intended to do it so surely something has happened that has brought it to a head.
I have been arguing that we should stick with him and still think so, at least until the end of the season but if that's not going to happen then I just hope we've got a plan for the next man up and he'd better be bloody good.
The official site has crashed by the way.

I think something has happened that has brought the situation to a head. There were a lot of stories this morning\last night that Poch and Levy held meetings yesterday\today, so my money would be on something happening in those meetings.

Yep they are changing the odds regularly , no one knows .
It’s fluctuated ridiculously , I’ve worked most of my life in the gambling industry and never seen a managers odds changed so much in a short period of time
