Now they have gone and ruined their season. The management should never have tampered with Jol and let him geton with it - he was doing great. Now they have gone and ruined their season.

As for revenue growth, increase ticket prices, take a nice slice of the PL pie, catch the shrapnel from a uefa cup run, yep, revenue growth for a PL club is fairly easy. Show me how levy has done a better job for you than sugar for example, and if levy is such a businessman, how much of his personal fortune is invested in the club ? Levy, Jol and players like Bent and Berbatov will get you relegated. Wilson,

However, it seems that his feet are well under the table with regard to the board, so is apparently veyond reproach Sadly the days have long gone by for player's loyalty to a club. Getting rid of all sponsorship would only put us on the back foot financially, these sponsorship deal are big money. Nice idea, it may have worked in the early days of shirt sponsorshop, but not a realistic option nowadays Barbatov seems to have a face like a slapped arse, to change that attitude will not be easy. All I want to see out of Dimitar is a return to the brilliance of last season, which I'm sure all Spurs fans want the same. I don't understand his attitude, he seemed a quiet, modest chap with a great talent last year, to turn in to something like Kevin the teenager now is a strange one WHS, it's not relegation time for Spurs, we'll get out of this situation. The unfortunate thing is, that after the last two seasons, expectation was very high & to be in this position now is hard to take & disconcerting. But rest assured, we will get out of our current position, hopefully with Jol (manure didn't give up on the serial chewing gum menace, the arse didn't give up on the garlic bagette), but maybe without TobytheYid

I was studying Barcalona's system of movement and it's actually a very simple pass, move, rotate system while moving forward at te same time - kind of like a spiriling hurricane...Just a thought incase Jol decides to have a look on here :-D Also did anyone watch the Rangers vs Barcalona game last night?

It's the people who work for him who have more direct influences on the footballing front who need to take look at themselves.

It's relegation time for tottenham, which may give a chance to regroup - certainly it'll be the end of levy and his mismanagement Hang on - a few weeks ago you were all defending the manager, now you can’t wait to get rid.
