    Harry Kane MBE

    My take on Kane is as follows: he is a trying to change his game, and this is having an effect on the whole team's pressing capability. It is a truism that pressing starts from the front, and the press has to involve everyone, or at least the front group to start with. This over the last 5...

    The only reason that Jansen is playing with the Under-23's is because he is a danger to squad morale for whatever reason. This is a standard routine for trouble makers. Indeed it has happened to Rabiot, who you were originally arguing we should sign. If you think that Jansen's current situation...

    "At no point have I said its a desired or optimal outcome, only that it is not a deal breaker." I'm not entirely sure what the "its" in this statement refers to but I suspect it's to do with the money involved. If it is I've never suggested otherwise, only that you give the impression that it...

    "I refute the idea of not improving because of technicalities around having the optimum balance of players to make sure everyone has a space." I don't see it as a technicality. If we remove someone from the squad without removing him from the club, there is a danger of unrest, which has already...

    I agree with most of what you are saying. Jansen doesn't and will not take a place up in the squad for either CL or PL. Pochettino has made that clear on a number of occasions. K'Koudou can play in the EPL but is not registered for the CL. Levy will decide what to do with players no longer in...

    When the tickets for the South Stand event were tested there were complaints that some tickets could not be processed properly. Hence the need for further testing. So there is no problem with the amount of testing but a need for retesting after faults have been found and corrected. Whether extra...

    According to the email they will use the event to test the ticketing systems: "Tickets will be priced at £1 each so that we can use this opportunity to test our ticketing systems". Would you prefer that this test was left until later? If the systems don't work, how will they "be able to host...

    Ten years or so he had holdings in both Tottenham and Watford. I'd imagine he's holding onto his Spurs Shares in the hope of a substantial profit. The value of his shares if the Club was sold for around £2 billion, which ENIC reputedly want, would mean his shares would have increased in value...

    That's as I understand it, yes. From memory, the individual share sales were marketed as "presents for a loved-one" at a relatively small cost, if at a substantial mark-up. I don't think the Club sold them but entrepreneurially minded individuals bought up blocks of them on the AIM and split...

    No it isn't. They have for example made no attempt to buy mine, all 980 of them, and if they were to buy them the sensible thing would be to contact all the remaining shareholders at the same time. There was a facility for individuals who so wished to sell them back to the club in about...

    I've seen various mentions by different posters on glory-glory of the word meteorology, which as far as I know is the study of atmosphere especially with regard to the weather. Is this one of the site's automatic changes to swearwords, or is there a meaning I am unfamiliar with?

    I despair. You appear to be serious about comparing borrowing on a credit card with financing a £600 million to £1 billion development project. Anyone who that thinks borrowing on a credit card to pay any bills that should have been provided for is a good way to run their finances needs...

    Forget pots. Forget "regular finances" .The club has limited resources. Any financing of the cost of the stadium has to be serviced: Interest has to be paid by the club. Debts have to be repaid within agreed time frames or refinancing arranged and further interest and debt repayments made. Any...

    According to the OED it is a noun in English not a gerund (though it is a gerund in Latin, a point which is not referenced in the OED). According to the OED both "referenda" and "referendums" are acceptable as the plural of "referendum". Also according to the OED, the "au" in "thesaurus" is a...

    Don't bother. This is a fans' forum where colloquial English is entirely acceptable. Perhaps you'll bear that in mind when you feel the need to rant in future about "gibberish" in a perfectly intelligible post. My comment was about "the pot calling the kettle black". No more from me on this.

    I was commenting on someone criticising nonsensical sentence construction, using nonsensical sentence construction. Or do you think your degree in English is baffled?
