Depuis le 6 décembre, les résidents de l’Ehpad des Monts du soir ont intégré leurs nouveaux bâtiments, au 9 rue de Beauregard. Et depuis, la vie a repris dans un écrin flambant neuf, pour les 173 résidents et le personnel.

Hélas, le bilan sur le mal-logement n'est pas si bon que ça, ni celui sur l'accessibilité de la ville... et le candidat qui manifestement mène la danse, JM Aulas, semble bien plus pragmatique et pas forcément moins écologiste dans les faits. Vivement qu'on puisse comparer les programmes, des choses importantes, sur les mobilités, sont à terminer ou à corriger. Sera-t-il possible de le faire avec la même équipe ? J'en doute.

Yesterday, Tottenham Hotspur released a lengthy statement from CEO Vinai Venkatesham on its website, and that was subsequently printed in the matchday programme for today’s Premier League match. It ends what had been a protracted silence by the Spurs CEO; while the club has struggled on the pitch, the decision-makers have been almost completely silent, choosing to brief things anonymously through trusted English media sources rather than make an outright statement, or better yet, a public forum where questions can be asked and answered. It’s actually a pretty good statement. Venkatesham is a gifted communicator who has a way with words, and he hits the right notes here. Obviously when the vibes at the club are this toxic it won’t take much for Spurs fans to find things in there to get mad about, but as far as statements go it’s fine — it acknowledges the elephant in the room that things are not going especially well, but tries to find the balance between acknowledging the clear failures of the men’s team on the pitch with a message of optimism towards the future. It’s a lot, it says, We’re working on it, and we all want the same thing: sustained success for Tottenham Hotspur. You can and should read the whole thing, but here’s the main passage I wanted to highlight. Our focus is sporting success, and in that we share the same ambition as our supporters. We know that words carry little weight without action, which is why recent months have been spent undertaking a thorough review of our operations. Opportunities for a genuine reset are rare in Clubs of our size, and we have been determined not to waste this moment as we make the changes needed behind the scenes to compete consistently at the highest level. Football has changed significantly in recent years, and while the club has evolved and achieved incredible things, we recognise that in some key areas we have not always kept pace. We all feel the gap between where we are and where we want to be, and while we know progress takes time, we share your impatience to close it. Our supporters want wins and performances to be proud of, and we know the men’s first team has fallen short of where we want to be so far this season. Significant work is underway. Venkatesham goes on to highlight the need to strengthen the men’s first team squad, improve relations with supporters, continue to improve the pipeline between the academy and the first team, robustly support and improve Tottenham Women, and improve player development which includes the appointment of John Heitinga as assistant coach and the strengthening of the medical and sports science departments, among others. Vinai’s message was notably silent about the overall job performance of Thomas Frank. But after watching Tottenham Hotspur lose to a terrible West Ham team that entered today seven points from relegation safety, and after weeks of fence sitting and milquetoast patience about Spurs’ performance under Frank, I’ve reached the point where it’s time for me to make a stand: Thomas Frank is not the right person to lead Tottenham Hotspur and it’s time for him to go. Like most of you, I watched Tottenham’s first team put in an absolute stinker of a first half today against West Ham. I cheered with most of you when Spurs played better in the second half and leveled the score, only to concede the match winner in injury time. There are usually positives you can take from a match, even bad ones and losses, and this was no exception — Spurs looked significantly better in the second half and had a pretty clear penalty shout waved off after a lengthy VAR review. But there’s no sugar-coating this loss. While there’s no such thing as an easy Premier League match and this is a London derby, this is a historically bad West Ham team. Spurs conceded 2.96 xG against a team that hadn’t won a league match since November 8, and that lost 3-0 to bottom-of-the-table Wolves. I’ve been a Tottenham fan a long time — nearly 20 years. In that time…
