Tottenham Hotspur: Where are Spurs supporters’ frustrations directed?

Transcript

00:00Yeah and so is it fair to say that yes there is frustration with

00:04Alan Shephard's postacognitive because of some of the things we mentioned there, the

00:06naivety in game management for example because that is on him no doubt and

00:11perhaps the injuries as well if the training methods and medical staff

00:14aren't you know living up to what they need to be to be doing but overall you

00:19weren't backed in the summer or he wasn't backed in the summer and to be

00:24honest it's the board who make the decisions at a higher level, Daniel

00:29Levy obviously many fans have their own personal issues with the way he's

00:33around the club so is that perhaps where the frustration is more directed at?

00:39Yeah I think so 100% I think there is now an overriding strength of

00:44feeling I think that you know look as a Spurs fan for nearly 30 years I

00:48mean Daniel Levy's taken us from you know literally mid-table mediocrity year

00:52after year after year to a you know a relatively top five club and we have a

00:57challenge for the title in a couple of those years but the facts remain we

01:01haven't won a trophy since that league cup win in 2008 and you know there is a

01:07feeling now that football is not Daniel Levy's priority now this transfer window

01:12will be very interesting because even if you're a businessman and you're not

01:15interested in football you need the team to be performing better otherwise it's

01:20not very good for a business sense so it will be interesting to see if this year

01:24he does get his hand in his pocket and spend some money in the transfer window

01:27and you know you think back to the last time we were in this sort of mess when

01:31one day Ramos was in charge he was sacked and Harry Redknapp came in we

01:35were in a very similar position slightly worse than we are now but you know we

01:40got backed in the transfer window and Harry Redknapp got two or three

01:43players in and we've proven in previous January windows we've signed

01:48Benton Kerr and Kuleshevsky you don't need to break the bank there is shrewd

01:52business to be done in January but we need to do it early we need to do it

01:55quickly and we need to get the right players in ASAP because we're crying out

01:59for reinforcements in key areas
