I blame my dad, it was his first time at the new ground. First thing I said to him on the phone after the game - "you are bad luck!!!"

If so, they are at fault.
My son took a shit in his pants when I got home - pretty much summed the day up.
Strangely I sort of agree with you, but I don't blame Levy.We shouldn't have been dragged into a situation where we're relying on other teams to do us favours when Levy has overseen 18 fucking months of zero fucking investment and failed to support our best manager in a generation.
Sorry, but I just get sick and tired of supporters clutching at straws and defending the obvious root cause of our collapse in form.
It wasn’t a sitter, but he did hit it right at the keeper.I've rewatched it like ten times. I don't think it was a sitter. Am I crazy? What do most people think?
We won't be lucky enough to get bought out we are saddled with levy for some time yet.Strangely I sort of agree with you, but I don't blame Levy.
I know it's a much argued point but there has been investment - and a lot of it - and we are now in a very good place, ready for the first full year in our new stadium. The fact that we have just returned a record profit is great, and I do believe that we will spend in the Summer. But so will City and Liverpool and United, who'll all spend way more than we can, and so the argument will continue next year and you'll blame Levy for not investing enough.
There is no answer I'm afraid - all we can do is hope for a massive take over from a corrupt oil rich country (if that floats your boat) or look for progress and hope that other teams do us favours from time to time.
Unless of course you have the answer?
I didn’t enjoy the game today either, when the atmosphere is shite and fuckers are leaving on 80 minutes at 1-0 down you start to question what direction live football is going
Match report says 60k attendance!Heartbreaking stuff given it was a) a 12.30 k/o, b) a derby and c) a game with a shit-load on the line.
Spurs are just another consumable life-style add-on to many.... Buy an ST and see if one fancies going to a game as the match-days roll round...
Of course the big glamour games will always look good on TV, but 3 games in at our new gaff and we can't sell out the stadium already.... Tells it's own story.

But he didn't invest anything. Unprecedented in top class football.. But so will City and Liverpool and United, who'll all spend way more than we can, and so the argument will continue next year and you'll blame Levy for not investing enough.
Mate I'm sorry but that is just deflective gibberish. Llorente is a 34 year old striker who had barely kicked a ball pre January, how can you compare that to selling our best central midfielder?Equally, can you or those using it as a batton to condemn the club prove that he was?
(I'd have thought, given that this is the accusation, that that would be a fairer starting point in all this.....)
.....Why should I have the burden of evidence?
Some tin-hat bullshit doesn't dignify evidence.
No 'smoke without fire' they say? Fine, but I'm gonna wanna see some 'smoke' first.
Besides, we also seemed to be taking offers on Llorente in Jan.... That behind Poch's back also was it?
Match report says 60k attendance!
I didn't see many empty seats to be fair......until the 80th minute that is!.....Is that actual bums on seats?
Find a quote where John said we should "Spend like City"John's answer is "Spend like City; spare me the details".... The equivalent of a climate change denier.
John wants that foreign take-over and plastic success.
John is a man of low principal.
Somebody mentioned the pitch, totally agree, doesn't seem to have any zip in it like the old WHL pitch. We desperately need some fresh energy and signings. Biggest void in my opinion is dembele driving from midfield
Oh God....... We desperately need Winks and Lamela to make miraculous recoveries...... Just to give us some options.
Meanwhile Ajax have had a lovely week of relaxing and preparing for us.....
Plead insanity. Supporting this club can indeed drive you crazy.So, I get off the train, straight to the Chinese for a conciliatory take away, and what’s the first thing I see? A gimp in a bloody West Ham jacket.
Looking forward to my court date....
Hairy’s Post Match Thoughts
1. Poor decision making, passing and control in the final third. Too much dribbling into the feet of the defenders rather than hitting the obvious run.
2. Toby makes rare mistake leading to the only goal.
3. Thought Foyth was top class, MOTM for me.
4. Our counter attacks move at glacial speed. Me thinks this plays a big part in our lack of goals.
5. Jansen misses a sitter. Water is wet
6. NWHL has been breached. Fuck.
