Daniel Levy has been the Spurs Chairman since 2001 however, since his arrival he has divided fans like Marmite. You either like him or you don’t.
Most of us has a Levy opinion, but how would you rate him? By that I mean his overall THFC stewardship, charm and charisma, his club business decisions…the list is endless. Oh and please take into consideration, if you have an opinion, anything he’s done in the past and what he’s currently doing. If you have a crystal ball then feel free to comment on what he might do in the future.
One of the VS forum polls asks…
Daniel Levy approval ratings out of 10
For example, 10 is outstanding while at the other end of the spectrum 1 is classed as useless as Sissoko.
Here are a couple of VS member comments:
Spursex
6/10
‘His stewardship has been hampered by two things, inability to take a measured gamble when an opportunity window opened and spending too long listening to people who knew less than he did about transfers/players/coaches and infrastructure projects.
‘His apprenticeship took him almost 8-10 years and that was/is a tragedy.
‘The near future, is a different kettle of fish – when the stadium has been delivered (which for a long time was against all the odds) he’ll get an 8/10…’
Matic
6/10
‘He’s made some excellent decisions down the years and the business side of the club has grown dramatically. The training facility is marvellous and the stadium looks like it could become a real treasure.
‘His footballing decisions have more often than not been appalling though. Some god awful managers have been hired and he has been lucky that some other hiring`s went as well as they did (Jol & Harry). His treatment of Jol was dire. His hiring of Baldini was embarrassing and his inability to take a risk when it was most needed has cost us dearly down the years. The hiring of Poch was his biggest risk and it has been his best decision yet, which proves that it is worth the risk at times.
‘Our gradual improvement is hard to ignore and I honestly do think he has a love for the club that wants to see us succeed but I also think his boss cares very little about it and is using it has a money making scheme. Lewis is the bigger problem for us and think Levy takes large amounts of blame that he shouldn’t.’
Big Chiv
1/10
‘He’s presided over our worst trophy drought since WW2, and there’s no sign of that drought ending.
‘Last time I checked, we’re still described as a Football Club, and as a football supporter that is all that interests me, not property, not balance sheets or any other non-football related ” successes” he may claim.’
