So is a couple of mates of mine who were working on the project......am expecting a few grumpy messages soon.Sparkyhd said:
Or he'll use the £500m stadium fund for Zidane's first year wages.
I think it's a few years in the wilderness for us unless the uncertainty regarding his position in the UK is resolved sharpish. I can't help think he will do something to try to force the governments hand - even to the point of walking and calling in his loan. Sad that we trail so many rival clubs in the PL now in terms of stadia for the next 5 years at least.Uncertain times....

Unlikely he'll be investing anything at all in a country that won't allow him to work there. He's just picked up Israeli citizenship too.On another RA point, I often wonder why he's not seriously pissed off at the amount of anti-semitic chanting at the ground.
Maybe he's having a rethink about the whole Chelsea project. We can but hope

Spent most of the second-half waiting for us to concede, well played by the lads all round. I thought Hazard and Giroud were exceptional. Nice way for AC to bow out, expecting announcement Monday...

"For those of you who don’t know, Yiddo is an appellation that Spurs fans – Spurs has a slightly larger percentage of Jewish fans than most other clubs – call themselves. Because of this, opposing fans chant it back at them with menaces. I’ve sat through hundreds of games at Chelsea where fans – perfectly respectable, politically correct-looking fans – will suddenly, on the arrival of, say, of an ex-Tottenham player on the pitch now playing for another team, start chanting this word aggressively at the top of their lungs. The last time it happened, a man behind me ended up shouting: “F*** the Jews! F*** the f***ing Jews!”

"After the match against fellow Premier League squad Watford on Monday night, an unnamed Chelsea fan told England’s Jewish News that he was hit with a “torrent” of anti-Semitic abuse and moved out of his seat for his safety."So no source and no specifics then
Well that's me convinced

And you, an unnamed Chelsea fan on a motoring forum, denying that it happens when even David Baddiel is pissed off.
Well that's me convinced
I'm not denying it happens - I'm a fairly regular attendee and 'yiddo' is regularly directed against Spurs in general (although much less that in used to be) much as Baddiel suggests. I've not once heard it directed against any individual in the crowd who suffered a torrent of abuse such that they had to move seats.Well that's me convinced
I'm saying that the 'evidence' that you posted, before you edited your post to add the bit from Baddiel, is s
tIf you're on an armchair Google crusade against anti semitism, you'll hear the Y word plenty of times at Spurs.

Perhaps you could listen in to the next SKY game and let me know just when you start hearing it ?
