Thomas Frank - Head Coach

As CEO Vinai was just as involved in choosing Frank as manager probably more so than Levy as Levy was a lame duck once Vinai came into the club, all we need to know is who were the other candidates. 4:05 into interview.

Lee McQueen, who accurately predicted everything (he said having been given information from inside the boardroom) from Ange being sacked to Levy being ousted, said before his appointment that the next manager (i.e. Frank) wouldn’t be a Levy pick.

I think Levy’s control had ebbed away much more than anyone outside the club realised before he eventually got the boot.

Alot of that on his own doing and choice, there were 100% elements he didn't want to have to deal with or be responsible for despite having final says. Thats not a defence of him BTW, but everyone gets tired and Spurs is a monster now, its one of the largest if not the largest football operation in the world.

PS the Hotel is still going ahead, the owners are not stupid enough commercially to not see through that project considering the need for it to activate the clubs full commercial potential

I think he will be gone soon which is sad but yesterday was a major turning point imho. That team put out yesterday was more than decent enough to beat Wham and he had a week to prepare. I do think he is a decent manager and better than he has shown but it's just not worked out for him. We cannot allow ourselves to be sucked into a relegation fight the way we are playing at the moment.

And we were the better side cheated out of a win by two ignored penalties and an assault on our keeper.

I had a look at the hotel site before the Villa match , nothing has been built apart from the foundations and they haven't even named a construction partner yet , until they do nothing is happening if there was it would be all over the THS page on Skyscraper.com site

All building work on the hotel has been shelved indefinitely.

Building was due to start, I know one of the subcontractors who had one of the largest packages

Interesting because not long ago they announced a plan for the residential tower. Was at a tradeshow where the Spurs meeting and events team were also promoting the hotel.

Will do some digging

From the latest FAB minutes meeting in December which was attended by Charrington.

• Property Update: Hotel development project remains on pause; all other property projects are under review (Printworks student accommodation is underway)

From what I've heard it's been binned and what's been dug out is due to be filled back in.

Interesting because from what I was told the future of the ground and its continued success which in turn reflects on more money into the club is that they need the hotel to feed into other revenues (the meeting and events needs a hotel to support it, over nights before games, maor representation on global events like concerts/NFL etc.

We will see I suppose
