60 quid for a ticket in London is the norm, any fan with half a brain cell would not fall for the season ticket sell bullshit.£60 to sit in the gods for the last home game of the season, and leaking to the press conte will keep kane at Spurs and will be given significant transfer funds to rebuild just before the season tickets renewal window shut.
Levy has mugged them off big time.
No kidding, spurs are a decent run club but still like most clubs take the fans for granted.I think this is very harsh on Spurs, I’m no fan of the club or levy in any shape or form - in fact I really do hate them, mainly due to the supporters and their entitled behaviour.
Why is this harsh? Well they were a well run club, on a high budget but not breaking the bank. Levy did well for Spurs in the transfer market and no one can question that.
A great business model and was working really well, even the stadium investment was well organised and thought out, revenue streams were identified and fully signed up for years to come. Would have worked really well and moved the club forward over the next five to ten years.
Unfortunately they were right at the point of heavy debt management when COVID killed them, and completely killed them, not just impacted but completely killed the project to the point of needing government assistance.
It’s like getting the house of your dreams, a new job paying twice the income, moving into your new dream house and finding out your new job isnt paying as much as your old one; you’re mortgaged to the hilt and limited revenue.
So let’s not kid ourselves that things were run poorly at Spurs, they are just, sadly another victim of COVID (and I say sadly as real people will lose jobs and homes etc there).
Other London clubs didn't charge that much and didn't sit in the gods.60 quid for a ticket in London is the norm, any fan with half a brain cell would not fall for the season ticket sell bullshit.
Peter Swales could have written a book on that subject, every summer we were going to sign the likes of Dean Saunders and co always ended up with some second rate crap.
All clubs take advantage of fans blind loyalty including ours.Other London clubs didn't charge that much and didn't sit in the gods.
Some fans will believe in anything, it's called blind loyalty.
The €150M was an example market value used because the poster I was responding to quoted that figure.
The true market value, as you obviously understand, is whatever a club is willing to pay.
I used an example sum to counteract some nonsense theory that Haaland would be cheaper to buy once his €65M release clause kicks in, because it won’t, because if he’s sold it will be at the highest price the market will bear under any circumstances and regardless of who gets what from the fee.
I used the (example) difference between market value and reduced sale fee to demonstrate that if Dortmund wanted to sell Haaland this summer then he and his entourage would not agree to that sale if, by their calculation, if reduced what would be due to them next summer.
I can understand why you made your remarks but if you’d read further back in the exchange then you would have understood that I wasn’t proposing that any particular thing would happen, merely setting out the conditions that would be required for anything to happen, as ridiculously unlikely as that may be - as was made plain in my example.
i agree mate, it would certainly benefit Kane and England if its done before the euros so it puts the speculation to bed and stops the media having click bait articles constantly.
And then one day the fans turn on board.All clubs take advantage of fans blind loyalty including ours.
Always if the club does not have success and if you follow the Chairman's end of season thread on here,, even after 2 trophies and a Champions League final, some fans are still not happy.And then one day the fans turn on board.
Wouldn’t come into our minds in the slightestCity may not want to do it until after the euros. Imagine if he picked up an injury? Big risk.
Jack the lad ain’t my type. The Brexit KDB can stay at Villa until we have room for him.

I don't think City want this played out in public. They would get no benefit from it, just Levy upping the price. Makes sense to be as polite and quiet as possible as you deal with Spurs.
The whole Conte thing shows that Levy is desperately needs a win before he sells Kane, and he's struggling. Graham Potter or Rafa Benitez is my best guess as to where he ends up landing.
I would expect with Pep being so desperate for Kane that we won't drag our heels.
Side issue but I've been saying for a few weeks (to Spurs fans: I know a few) that Potter would be a good choice for them. He annoyed me when Brighton had the temerity to beat us but I think he has the potential to do well at a "big" club.
I don't pay huge amounts of attention to other clubs but it seems like Spurs are in a tough spot at the moment and Levy may not have that much leverage when it comes to Kane (aside from keeping him to his contract against his will).
Call me crazy but potter has the England job written all over him, he’s next in line for the poisoned chalice I think.
Thought he was brilliant in Pirates of the Caribbean. Good leader too but may be a bit old.What do you make of Gabriel Barbosa mate, do you think he could do it in the Premier League?
So imagine being a spurs fan.Always if the club does not have success and if you follow the Chairman's end of season thread on here,, even after 2 trophies and a Champions League final, some fans are still not happy.
I actually think the next England manger might be Pep, if Southgate lasts past the next World Cup!

Christ. So do I, unfortunately. The bucolic bastard.Exactly, that’s all I meant. I remember Mick Channon!
