Spurs Thread - 2021/22

Just compiling some financial figures for a KOTK article and while I'm not a great believer in net spend as a metric, over the longer term it does paint a picture.

Of the so-called 'Big 6' over the 6 seasons to 2019/20 (when the last sets of accounts are available) our net spend has been £750m, United's around £650m, Arsenal (surprisingly) £450m with Chelsea & Liverpool around £350m.

Over the same 6-year period, Spurs' net spend has been just £2m. That's not a mistake; it's two million.

Levy shouldn't be able to show his face at WHL without a phalanx of security guarding him from furious fans. He's cheated them.

Excellent info/insight, will be very useful in dealing with a Spurs chum of mine!

Do you or any of our other financially savvy Blues on here have any similar insight into the total amount of money taken as dividends and other (usually) offshore payments during this period from each of our main rivals' financial turnover/performance?

I regularly suggest to friends supporting other teams that they should be asking 'Where's the money gone?' of the Glazers, Kroenke et al rather than moaning about City's so-called 'state-backed riches'

The amounts leached out of each club during this period must be humongous, especially given the growth in cash available from TV deals via UEFA and the Premier League.

Look forward to reading your article in 'KOTK'.

Come off it! These figures show the financial prudence of Levy and his men.
 
They're getting an excellent short-term manager in Conte. The number of teams who might actually take some points off of Chelsea and Liverpool has just risen from five to six.

In other words the difference between Spurs and Chelsea/Liverpool is the amount the new WHL stadium went overbudget.

You have a friend who supports Spurs? You might need to re-evaluate your social circle!

Not like he's a Tottenham legend, he's a risk and doesn't have a history of staying a long time in one place. Its a fair contract if you ask me , if they get along , and he has results, it will get extended, if things don't work they don't work out and don't have to pay a lot of money to get rid of him. A season and a half is enough time for Conte to prove himself that hes worthy of an extension

What do you mean he's a risk? He's a title winner at several clubs and whilst he won't win the title at Spurs (we will!) I'm sure he will improve them.
 
Can't see Conte and Levy having the same idea of transfer spending. Good enough manager to squeeze a last couple of seasons out of bale and Kane though.
 
Impressive job landing Conte. Be interested to see how it works out, if it does.

Any idea what the total prize money of the respective clubs is over that period?
