      Any other fence-builders-during-storms got completely gagged by Thomas Frank here or was it just me?

      Sorry but that’s a lame quote. Who’s he referring to in here? I don’t see them building windmills, rather adding fuel to the fire by confronting the fans and avoiding responsibility for the situation that they’ve created.

      The thing is, I just do not care what he says anymore. It sounds nice but I want him gone. Im tired of him still being in charge.

      Would you call playing 8 defenders per match and keeping them all behind the ball at all times and coaching your attackers to value back passing over risky creation “building a windmill”?

      Still not the most WTF quote by a spurs manager but def a contender.

      Reigning champ is still: “it’s like a cow who sees every single day for 10 years the train crossing in front and if you ask the cow when the train is coming he’s not going have the right answer. In football, it is the same”

      Ooooh boy I’ve seen these type of quotes from shitty managers/coaches as being a Chicago Bears fan. This guy is in over his head

      I think they only exist in as much as his desire to tilt at them. Don Quixote ass mother fucker

      Ten points from twelve games since the start of November (and getting dumped out of the League Cup) is a pretty bad storm, so it’s probably for the best we haven’t built any windmills
