Spurs

LOL

Funny seeing them fold yet again, but this is what Everton have to overcome in the next couple of years. It's as much about mentality as it is about ability.

They have a very valuable asset in Kane which will help them financially, he will deffo be gone in the summer.

But thats it.

About 15 years after Spurs last won the English league, a low budget sci-fi flick changed movies forever.
A further two films were made over the next few years. After a long, long wait, a new trilogy arrived for the fans to enjoy. It had been so long many of the original fans were bringing their own kids to share the experience.
Then after another long, long wait another new trilogy arrived and this time some of the original fans could bring their grandkids as well.
There's telly shows of it now and everything.

Massive club.

I am not immersed in their accounts, but pretty sure they would have budgeted for 20 odd home games, and a handful of NFL games as well. Guns & Roses had to cancel a gig there, and I am sure there were others. Wasnt some boxing bout pencilled in as well?

Then there is the £175m Govt covid loan.

Plus, possibly, a multi million fee to not be in the ESL.

Oh dear.

Yes likewise, I haven't looked yet, but I can't imagine it is going to be great reading.

I take 2 things into account with Levy. The 1st washe wanted the ground half full on the opening game of the season. The 2nd was he stated (and I quote) "if we don't get fans in after Christmas it is going to do irrepearable damage".

Now even if you accept some hyperbole there to make his point, and perhaps he meant by March instead of January would do irrepearable damage, it's hardly the sort of language that would fill you with confidence.

It is going to be 18 months without revenue that he is paying out for, maybe longer. You factor in no CL as well and all the added bonuses that come from that.

The only way out of this for clubs is going to be owners sticking their hand in their pockets (hence why FFP is doomed) but I just can't see Spurs owning doing that, given past history.

What would also be really interesting, is if spending summer last year was based on this 300m they were getting too. At a smaller level, I remember us with the NTL money and when it suddenly broke down, we were left in a bit of a hole.

It sounds harsh, but we have had to put up with it, so have Leeds, so have lots of other teams. It may well be the turn of your Tottenhams, your Arsenal's and to a degree your Liverpools now.

I bet the fans of Milan and RM and Barca were really impressed today.

Yes he will be gone. I dont think they will get whatthey wnt for him though. A massive buyers market. Loads of clubs paying back fines and desperately short of cash. Haaland and Mbappe being the big assets this summer etc.

State of him

Whose leg did he break this time??

Forgot about no CL. Thats circa another £90 odd million isnt it?

Lewis(?) is the key. Like you say, he hasnt coined up so far, but he has the cash to do so, (see us). Just a judgement call for his investment company, which, as a rule, dont bail assets out. They buy, hold, then either take divis, (United/Arse), or sell.

Not so sure.
All the "big" clubs that would want him are well and truly skint.

 

[SpongeBob brown shoes]

He's not that kind of player apparently

 

[Dario Terracotta]

Do it Spurs. Complete the collapse.

State of him

Can't find any sympathy in me for him,I wonder why!!!

Think City could get him easily they’re in need of a goalscorer and could afford him
