The way he's going he'll be like all good PHers and paying CASH for the stadium!

This for me is really alarming, he should be able to. If that's the plan why not say? it'll make a lot fans far more comfortable. I fear the reasons are far more sinister and of course despite all the pretty pictures released every six months we haven't laid a brick yet.

Also where is all the money? its not in the accounts.

They've done a hell of a lot of work already (even if you it's not a brick). I can't think Levy would piss money away.

Is there a bigger cock-socket in the Prem than Barndoor ?

Football is an incredible industry isn't it, with shocking monopoly money figures that just don't bear any reality with the working man anymore. These types of loss figures can be found for any club so I'm not just talking about Tottenham, but just look at the losses he's overseen for your club.

Article said:

Chiriches joined from Steaua Bucharest for £8.5m and has left for Napoli for £4.5m; Paulinho, the £17m signing from Corinthians, has moved to Guangzhou Evergrande for £10m and Capoue, who cost £11m from Toulouse, has gone to Watford for £6m.

In 12 months he's overseen a loss of 16 million quid on three players with Goaldado still to come. Crazy money. I'm not surprised he's been given the boot.

I'd love to know how much his own pay-off for failure comes to, Hornetrider. Seven figures wouldn't surprise me.

[Black can man]

Crikey HR you really know your spudly facts don't you.


He had to go simple as that but we would easily double our money on Eriksen & Chadli so i guess it's swings & roundabouts , Soldado however is going to be a real kick in the gonads & i can't see the point in selling him really.

That's another thing I'll never understand. Sacked for incompetence - you get paid out the rest of your contract. What the actual. I wouldn't mind a bit of that.

Not really, but I am able to read...

I think your £ and € may be a little confused and the figures assume total including all potential add-ons but yes, it is crazy money. On the other hand, it could be argued that he oversaw the signings of Eriksen, Dier and Alli for £20m, which we could quite conceivably triple our money on in a year of two. Swings & roundabouts.

I take your point as well and completely agree, but if that's the case why is he being sacked and why is BCM glad to see the back of him? Surely as reasonably fans we all recognise that football is not an exact science and there will be success and failure, and with human development there is no such thing as certainty.

That's sport's journo's for you - never actually doing any research or providing any direct quotes. All the transfer figures are in our accounts. Far easier to just make stuff up. All we know for fact is that "Tottenham Hotspur agree severance deal with Franco Baldini". Everything else in the article is pure speculation. I can think of lots of reasons why he may be leaving, rather than "he has paid for the collective failure of those who were bought with the £86m that the sale of Gareth Bale realised". I don't really care either way - it's about as clear as mud what goes on during the transfer window at Spurs. I think having anyone making signings on behalf of a manager is a daft idea. Can't really blame Baldini if AVB didn't know what to do with them and MoPo didn't want them.

Talksport quoting LVG as saying that de Gea will NOT be playing tomorrow against Spurs. The keeper is not injured.

Sadly neither will Lloris. I predict 6-6.

[RustyBison]

Predictions for tomorrows game then?

A fortnight ago I was predicting a good grubbing, but without Ddg @ the Schwen chap I think we could get at them & get something tomorrow .

[Cie]

4-0.

Mata 1, Rooney hat trick.

[RobbieKB]

I've forgotten how much Spurs make me miserable and I'm really looking forward to it. I think that all the rumours might unsettle Man U tomorrow and I'm going for an optimistc 1-2 Spurs with Kane and Chadli scoring.

[anonymous-user]

I think it will be quite free scoring, reckon a 3-2 to us.
