The Tottenham Thread 13/14 part 3.

[The Flash]

You have a billionaire owner thats the reason you can afford to keep hold of players until there desperate to jump ship

Assuming you are referring to Joe Lewis - who doesn't actually directly own the club - his wealth has absolutely nothing to do with keeping our players. Or otherwise. He doesn't fund the club at all.

Yeah, Sheikh Mansour doesn't fund MCFC either. ADUG own the club. Bit like Joe and ENIC wouldn't you say?

But it's funny how our "owner" is pilloried in the press for "ruining football", yet Uncle Joe isn't.

I can see the la la la fingers in ears not listening to you heading towards this thread...
You all know tottingham fans always take the moral high ground and bring into the conversation that they didn't really spend £100m on players and that this season is about consolidation...
I'd say only 9 goals scored and not being in the top 2 tells it's own story...

When you run a business, You look at in-comings and outgoings.
If you judge a business on just what they have spent then Apple is a shit business.

So what you are saying to me is that you are shit?

I won't pretend to know in detail about your ownership set-up. But I wasn't commenting on it at all, or making any kind of comparison, in my post. It was just a response to the Iron's post, as I didn't really understand his point.

Only one can come out on top on the 24th and It will be "El Coco"

Fair enough, but I think the ownership model is the same. Off shore company own the club, off-shore company owned by very rich people.

On balance, I'd probably say losing to Sunderland is marginally more depressing than losing to Newcastle, even taking into account the fact that you were away and we were at home. Both bad results whichever way you look at it though, and don't really see what one has to do with the other! I don't really understand why Spurs fans would gain any particular comfort from that fact that City lost too, other than the obvious fact that it stopped us dropping another position in the table. Which is pretty irrelevant at this stage.<br /><br />-- Mon Nov 11, 2013 6:01 pm --<br /><br />

Erik Lamela. Our record signing. Who won't be playing at the Etihad.
