Good afternoon.

Curiously enough I was having a chat with a blogger of another Premier League side a few days ago and we both agreed that the word ‘cannibalism’ was indeed about the size of it. His club’s fans have also developed a taste for their brethren’s flesh.

So how long are you, in your inimitable wisdom prepared to give Andrè Villas-Boas?

I’m giving him my full support come what may until 3.15 on Saturday the 9th of February next year. By then I expect the following:

1. Us to be higher in the league than we are now.

2. To have played some excellent, dare I say it sexy football on a pretty routine basis.

3. To have demonstrated to any fair minded person that he is worth keeping on.

If it by this time, fifteen minutes into the Newcastle game indoors, he is looking every inch the Mr Bean/David Brent hybrid that some are suggesting now; after three games then I want to see him flung into a weighted, chained suit as per the scene in the excellent movie, Brazil. AVB ought must be hoisted in the style of Mr. Archibald Buttle out of The Lane. Destination? Parts unknown.

Cannibalism was ordinarily sanctioned by a cultural norm, but to be frank those cultures are pretty few and far between these days and it’s perhaps ambitious to think they might have wi-fi. Extreme famine can be a cause, but in the main people eating people is the domain of the mentally ill, or deviant. Perhaps consider which category you best fall into the next time you take a bite out of someone.

    As long as possible. Managers need more time than they are given nowadays. Definitely a season possibly two. If it means a great Spurs I can be patient.

    What is this ‘how long shall we give him’ shit. He gets as long as Levy allows him which should be at least 2 seasons, probably 3. This year is transition and ‘these want it all now cos we pay our money’ cnuts should just shut the fcuk up and get behind the team. If they dont want to do that, stop paying ya money and take up stamp collecting or badminton.

    Tottenham til I fcuking die regardless

    He needs three seasons come what may.

    Really difficult to call … Some would say up to the length of his contract – based on sufficient backing from employers from a PR and transfer point of view – unfortunatly today’s society is impatient and many are swayed by those who fuel the game with huge cash amounts ie SKY … Fans expect results without really understanding realistic timeframes and co-ordination required to cross the finish line as a united front. I still believe AVB will come good so the future looks bright as a Lillywhite …
