I think you're right.

From a swissramble blog (http://swissramble.blogspot.no/2012/10/borussia-dortmund-back-in-game.html):

Deloitte league 10/11, before the CL money started rolling in as a result of what Klopp had achieved:

10+Dortmund+Money+League.jpg


Schalke might have some CL money in that, I'm not sure. Either way it goes towards showing that it's not like Dortmund have been comfortably the 2nd richest club in Germany all along. Unsurprisingly those financial results have come as a result of success on the pitch.

This is purely income and income does not equate to wealth without taking expenditure in to account.

You can add vfl Wolfsburg in to the mix in the "rich list" bearing in mind they are fully owned by VW.

**** it lets just get someone in who wants to be here, and give them time. Not been a season ticket holder for years, when is the deadline anyone? All i want to know is when will I be put out my misery (potentially)
 
Nah, City wont sack Pellegrini after one season; The DoF's there believe fully in him.

City would have to nosedive in a bog way before they sack him as they don't want to be the next Chelski in terms of sacking managers.

Just some mischief makers on Twitter.

We should all watch the situation at Man U and David Moist much more closely than Emirates Marketing Project.

Irrespective of how weak the Emirates Marketing Project story is, I agree.
I do appreciate that we know **** all, and it may be that all is revealed at a later stage, but I feel like I've asked a bird out at school, and she's still having a slow dance to Careless Whisper with the bloke from Brookdale!

Indeed let's hope LVG is already signed and sealed [-o<

LVG is one of the biggest names in football - he doesn't need to use us in this manner. Plus he is 'free' to talk to clubs anyway - It's just an easy story for journos to publish.

Or he may have already signed a contract with us, and just doesn't want it announced out of respect for the Dutch team and their WC campaign.

We just don't know what level of agreement was made between him and Levy in December/January.
 
I still think Spurs are doing a bit of damage limitation with regards to Sherwood. We all know the media will kick off when we eventually announce a new coach so I think we are trying to find the best way of doing things.

As things stand all we hear are various rumours from different journalists and if you need an indicator of their accuracy, remember that Prandelli was already signed up in January according to Italian sources.

Its a very easy story for a journalist to write and would make Spurs fans and Man C fans read it. Personally I wouldnt believe this story HOWEVER I would like to see Levy sort the hiring of LVG out asap. No reason why he cant get LVG to sign a contract and agree that it wont be announced til after our final game - announcing it now would make TS' position untenable and then who takes over for the final games?

We havent ever been as close to getting such a good manager in - literally never been this close. Levy needs to close this out asap

I doubt it. The Dutch FA have moved on having announced Hiddink and Blind as the successors. LVG already announced in advance that he wanted to quit after the 2014 WC. In a way the longer LVGs future is in the air the more speculation it creates and the bigger distraction it causes.......Levy SHOULD have tied LVG to a contract in Dec/Jan, but i very much doubt he has

There is always the possibility that Levy tried and got the knock back from him though.

Pulis.

We bought 7 players without PL experience who all needed a season to adapt to the football, lifestyle and language. Is it a good idea to get a manager who may need the same settling in period?

Can't see us getting Ancelotti or Martinez.
Probably not FSW either.
Pulis may be the best of the rest - would certainly sort out the defence and set plays. I could see him doing what Harry did when he first arrived - he would know what Spurs' deficiencies are and sort them out.

Kind of Wenger's nemesis as well.

Maybe they've tasked Cullen with leaking a juicy smear story at the appropriate time. We're just waiting to see if we can nab EL from United before releasing it.

I don't think that the press will give a **** if we let Sherwood go. I don't see significant support for him in Fleet Street. They are motivated by a story that sells papers, not individuals. Any new manager coming in will be a good story for them, particularly if it is a big name.
