Exactly.

So no discussions are made with players or managers prior to a bid being accepted? This comes up on NSC fairly often and I thought the consensus was this sort of thing does happen a lot unofficially.

What a visionary Tony is, he recognised GP’s talent very early on and then gave the huge contract extension. He’s backed and believed in him ever since then, even during some of our bad runs earlier in the season. Some chairman would have booted GP back in early December, not Tony.

And we appointed a certain Mr. Potter… I agree there’s a real lack of imagination with managers being considered.

I really don’t know why Levy doesn’t give the job to Klinsmann. He clearly loves the club, should get reasonable time from the fans who loved him as a player.

Sure. But that’s assuming he wants to leave. Thus far no evidence at all that is the case. Quite the opposite in fact.

According to the Argus the club (or whoever their source was) remains fairly relaxed. We have no wish to lose Potter, have had no approach from Spurs and remain convinced he doesn’t want to leave anyway,

I’m just really happy with the way our club are going, I’m sorry if that bothers you or doesn’t fit your negative agenda.

Exactly exactly. As so often the case, we vastly undersell ourselves here. We are now arguably an established PL club. We have an actual long term plan, with a measurable trajectory that has only been going one way since we’ve been promoted. Ashworth. Paul Barber and of course Tony Bloom are an...

So you must think all the Everton / Arsenal / Spurs fans are complete idiots for wanting our loser manager.

There’s so many comments from Spurs and Arsenal fans like this. It’s quite astonishing how dim some people are. Usually along the lines of: “Yeah we should get Potter in. Good football, good with young players and we can then get Bissouma, Lamptey and maybe even Ben White as well”. Assuming...

He was yesterday.

It’s weird how they just act like it’s a given he’ll leave. They don’t see what we’re doing here, the trajectory our club is in. They still don’t get it.

Correct. They make the Potter out gang look like a mumsnet book club. Even Poch… he was loved and took them to a Champions League final. One ropey half season and he was kicked out the door. There is not a long term project at Spurs even if they say there is. One bad season or even half a...

You’re making the assumption and leap that Tony wouldn’t be competitive with manager salary.

Preaching to the choir here Thunder… that’s been my stance from the beginning! I’m just reacting to the odds suddenly shortening across the board.

To be honest I think Spurs should hire Mason or Ledley King at this point. They’re running out of time for the new season. Hire from within and it gives Levy breathing room to find a bigger profile manager through the season.
