    Next Manager?

    Mate, I’ve said repeatedly that there are 3-4 sources that you can probably trust as having a line into the club. Not that they are in the room, but that they will have a confirm / deny kind of relationship with the club, or be told things that the club wants them to hear. The argument then...

    Daniel Levy - Chairman

    What a surprise. Levy, in an interview with the club’s in house social media channel, intended to respond to the pressure he is facing, decides to tell everyone not to believe everything that is seen in the media. Because it is making him look bad. Time has been passing. Even if we accept none...

    No…..just no. That wasn’t what was happening.

    First point - I’ve literally never put Romano in the top tier of journalists I’m saying should be trusted. I’m sure he has some access to the game in a general sense but for Spurs, as I’ve said repeatedly, it’s Gold, KP, JPB. Romano would be a tier below that. Second point - maybe because the...

    Next Manager?

    The thing is..time has been passing. Certain obvious candidates we might have approached and that might have been excellent fits have been and gone. It’s no longer credible to claim its all going exactly as we planned and that we are just biding our time before the big reveal. You can take...

    I think you’re stretching a lot to try and make the club seem like it’s totally in control and all going swimmingly with respect to this search. If our plan is to wait out the Euros, who is it for? Why it is worth it? What confidence does it give you about where we are heading?

    Next Manager?

    I wouldn’t be surprised if we’ve already had discussions with Martinez and he just didn’t want to commit to anything / have anything announced before the tournament if it would serve as a distraction. And while it makes some sort of plausible sense, and as much as I could get behind Martinez...

    Next Manager?

    I think it’s the only thing that makes sense, but I think our new MD of Football going after a manager from the Italian league he might have rated in Fonseca was certainly very plausible too.

    Just want to make clear that I won’t be taking a rumour about Nuno at all seriously until it’s reported by someone with closer links to the club than Talksport.

    Next Manager?

    I agree that they post what they got told, not what might be actually happening. But when it comes to all 3 or 4 of them talking about the same specific targets, you’d have to assume there’s a kernel of truth in it. But let’s run with it. What actually is the plan? If we were proactively and...

    Tell us what you think is untrue that they’ve said about the managerial hunt? Did we, or did we not, speak to Paratici, Fonseca, Gattuso? ‘They have to publish something’ is when Gold puts up his ‘here’s my ideal Spurs XI next season’ or something similar. Not when he, Kilpatrick and...

    Next Manager?

    Gold, Kilpatrick and Pitt-Brooke are not wannabes. They interview our manager publicly every week during the season. They have some access. I don’t see anyone else trusting any other source than one of those three.

    Daniel Levy - Chairman

    No one has been saying ‘will join tomorrow’. The closest and most definitive statement has been around Fonseca likely being unveiled next week after working through the final details. After his wife was talking about butterflies for a new challenge beginning. But it has never been reported that...

    Daniel Levy - Chairman

    Quite right. It’s not ambitious to talk to Conte and not actually have a pitch and plan to convince him. It’s not ambitious to talk to Rivaldo and get a letter explaining why he didn’t go our way. Ambition is actually getting it done.

    Next Manager?

    Despite everything I still have enough trust in the club that it won’t be Klinnsman, and that there is some method to all of this. But we need to pull it out from here. I feel like a club manager would have been hired already so I hope we know what we are doing.

    Next Manager?

    It’s hard to win a major tournament when other good teams exist, and when it’s tournament football and anything can happen. I don’t blame him for not winning something when France are as deep as they are too, and at least he gets to the latter stages. I don’t hold that against him. If his...

    Next Manager?

    I’m on the Martinez train. I feel like if it was a club guy we need to pay comp for we would have done it already. (Unless there’s some calculation that by playing off these other candidates we can somehow reduce the comp fee…but I’m not sure how that outweighs the benefits of getting them in...

    What exactly are they getting wrong? That we have had some advanced discussions with managerial candidates? What exactly is hard to take in about this?

    Next Manager?

    I’m being asked for evidence all the time on here. You will not be able to find a trusted journalist saying it was a ‘done deal’ or ‘signed’ because none of the core group said that. This is slightly different to what I was annoyed about a few weeks ago (the club pumping stories of Conte and...

    But mate, where did any of this journalists say it was a ‘done deal’? We’ve had ‘Poch wants to come home but PSG won’t let him’ We’ve had ‘Conte is the front runner’ We’ve had ‘Fons has filed work permits, hope to complete the deal next week’ And we’ve had ‘Gattuso front runner, talks...
