Annual RTR quiz - it's a shorter one but very tough imo. The Dennis Wise of Spurs Quizzes
Edwards should have been forced to resign the second he chose not to take action on the MoD data breach which put people at direct risk of harm, and literally death. This is welcome and shouldn't even be in question.

Data-based misery is the best kind of misery
Always a joy ๐๐ค
Listen ๐๐ป๐๐ป
Very kind ๐ though let's wait for the inevitable 'erm ACKCHUALLYYYYY' responses first before committing
Always a pleasure
I make you right, although I think a lot of clubs have the same issue. There was low hanging fruit though, in not signing Tel and ring fencing minutes for Moore, or getting rid of 'Wilson Odobert'
Haha, I can't guarantee. I don't think my Spurs takes belong on this platform
HELLO BLUESKY!
Lange's days at Spurs are numbered anyway, but the CL squad list probably should be the final nail for him. I get one or two tough decisions, but building a squad over 4 windows that creates *this* much of a registration mess is pretty unforgivable
She's absolutely box office stuff. I love the personalities in the women's game, because the men have had it coached out of them for a nearly 2 decades
Levy's played a blinder
How are the #underlyingnumbers? Still good?
We've got leaks coming from inside the dressing room about injuries, a club at war with it's medical team, Munn on a warpath to cut costs, and a manager on his way out. Aside from a younger squad profile, are things significantly better 2 years on from Conte?
I know, it's a stretch
I'm prepared to declare we are safe from relegation
Still, good news about the hotel
And all the attention and focus doesn't make any difference, it only used to because the finances of finishing outside of European places was so great. Now, even relegation wouldn't touch the sides of what we earn outside of football. We're in so much trouble
Yep, just responding to the normal situation part. It very much is/will be. They don't even have the energy to be cowards
But could very well become one. We are not above the likes of Southampton, Swansea, Everton, Stoke, who went into death spirals and went down or nearly down after year upon year of decline and failing to replace talent. It's over, just depends how bad it might get
But are the underlying numbers still good?
I've built a machine that can be Confidently Wrong. It can also make pictures that all look a bit the same, as well as make a video of you kissing any celebrity or person you know. In payment, I'd like to boil the world's oceans dry, & steal all literature. For some reason, my head is not on a spike
Most likely the former, as they can't be under any illusions by now
It's one thing to question what message this sends to Ange, but what must the players be thinking? Not just those who have been more outspoken, but the youngsters who signed in the summer, and who are being pushed to their absolute limit? To Porro and Kulu as they worry for their muscles every game?
Love these because they combine 3 of my favourite things: RTR, trivia, and being a fucking loser
Friends fear he's Sporcle-ing again. youtu.be/3cLr6hqlbeo?...
The club will be absolutely delighted with that. As long as the losses are by 1 goal, they get to blame it on fine margins
Are the underlying numbers still good?
You can't argue that home games with Oxford, Blackburn, and Middlesbrough aren't a change of games
