The problem with fans like you is summarised in one word: impatience.
Yes, Levy is a tight arse. Yes, Levy has probably bungled a few transfers through his negotiation tactics. Yes he has sometimes made bad decisions when it comes to managers. But the intent has always been clear. To not run the club at a debt and to slowly improve the side to the extent that we stand a chance of competing at the top. The fact is that we have improved quicker than we should. I suspect that Levy did not envisage us competing for the title before the new stadium was built. But we have. In the years Levy has been chairman we changed from being a side that had just avoided regulation to having now finished in the top four on four occasions, constantly competing in Europe, mounting back to back title challenges, building the league's best training ground and building what will be the best stadium in the league - all while massively increasing our global profile. Whenever we have taken one step back in the short term we have taken two steps forward in the long term. Levy is not perfect and has made mistakes, but Jesus Christ, look at the bigger picture. What he has done for us to date is more positive than it is negative and fans should be fucking grateful for it. Instead it's whining because we don't sign players quick enough...and Stratford, really?
Quite sad when I can't keep up to the pace of this thread, yet I try to join the cuntersation, only to find that others have already posted a better answer than I could ever dream of formulating
