I think that a reality check is needed by some people on here. We are Spurs we generate our own income from player sales and tickets and selling shirts and the like. We don't have 14/15 years CL money like Arsenal we don't have sugar daddies like Emirates Marketing Project and Chelsea and we don't have a huge global business like Man Utd and Liverpool.

What we do have is an astute chairman who does his very best to make the best deals for this club and if that means not buying players until 31st August or paying more than what a player is worth. We also have a very good team that is difficult to improve without signing next level players which we sadly cannot afford.

If we get CL football it should be looked in as a bonus because with the money we can afford we shouldn't be near the top four.

I have nothing but absolute faith that every decision Levy makes is in the best interests of THFC. Talk of him lining his own pockets from transfer deals is just ridiculous.

Last Minute Levy obviously thinks this partnership will justify selling Modric late for a lesser fee with no replacement. These partnerships mean squat-we've got four now and bar Sandro (which I think was beforehand anyway) our sum reward is rubbish friendly matches in the middle of nowhere and Khumalo. cheers. sick of our idiotic transfer "policy".

Obviously....? Not for me.

The partnership is obviously something he sees fruits in, so cant be a bad thing, but I doubt its his means of justifying the sale of Modric.

As to 'late' - Im actually pleasantly surprised - I thought it wouldnt happen until Friday lunchtime :lol:

I admire your patience, and admit I can be reactionary, but I think it's disgraceful we have a chairman who thinks it's fine to give teams a two game headstart to save a few bob. There's canny financial management but then there's taking the ****. And it's the same every year.

I can only imagine he isnt doing it by choice, that he would certainly prefer to start the season with a complete squad and that "saving a few bob" is in fact an essential part of business for us (or, on the flipside, we simply dont have a few bob to waste)

I think he sounds EXTREMELY similar to Modric in his sad sad moaning interviews and "head not right to play" ploys.

I hope he is worth it. This behaviour can be destructive.

I also hope all those who railed against Modric remember this...

Not really sure, although some on SC seem to think he's a decent ITK just doesn't post much.

With revelations like that though you'd think he'd post more lol



Edit: think he works for the Mail

I think there will be a pre season comp like the ajax cup, starting at WHL then moved to the USA, they will call it the LEDLEY KING CUP. :-k

We share the proceeds.

He certainly avoids putting a spin on things to look more important.

As mentioned before, he is a genius and one of the best chairmen in world football. The ones that cant see it are unable to grasp that fact and most likely never will. It's beyond them.
