    Yeah nic, past spurs manager, and present spurs manager discussed, and its all about spurs really, levy even.

    If they had any brains it would be put immediately back on main chat, but we do live in hope sometimes.

    We've all had our say many points have been overlooked due to denial and cos it suits. I say again, the relationship between Harry and the Spurs board broke down due to differing opinions.. Harry wanted to parade a 36 year old Beckham in a Spurs shirt.....Along with Distin, David James, Gareth Barry, Phil Neville, Patrick Viera and Ryan Nielsen

    During that window we signed Vertonghen, Sig, Ade, Lloris, Dembele, Dempsey and renewed contracts for Walker, Lennon, Bale and Defoe. Not bad business considering no CL.


    At Spurs Harry Redknapp was one of the highest paid football managers in the world (10th) . He wanted a new improved contract with a pay rise . He went on tv (arranged it with his buddies at Sky Sports) and said "he cant go into the season with one year remaining on his contract , give me a new contract or pay me off the remaining year as players don't respond to a manager who they know will not be there to long"

    So an improved contract , one to bring him up to the highest paid managers in world football , for what ?
    Two succesive end of season collapses that have cost the club millions .

    For the great FA Cup run last season beating Cheltenam , Stevengae, but ended unluckily to the first decent team we came up against , 5-1 was it ?

    For the League Cup run then ?

    Howabout the Europa League run ?


    Harry was given a great up and coming squad and he managed it well to produce league results but he neglected the cups .
    The players that got games loved playing for him but these players were also the best he had ever managed.

    Harry was fortunate to be given the Spurs job by Levy at the time, which triplled his wages from where he were a fast sinking ship named Pompey!. In return, Levy got arrogance and an ego out of control all due I feel, to an easy ride from his media chums .


    AVB is in charge now and after a poor start the boo boys and those still pining for Harry are doing what I expected .
    Carry on, I'm not here to gag opinions never have done but I do find it all very predictable and all of us are just going round and round in circles .

    If you want , start a Levy thread and tell us why he should be removed , Enic to sell up if you're so unhappy.

    Three games in and we get all this , you couldn't wait could you

    Harry out, and now reaping the rewards of what you mostly wanted is hitting home.
    To
    want the break up of continuity, and of a successful time of a manager
    of the team we support, can now be looked back on as foolhardy.
    Yes
    redknapp made his mistakes, he was deflected from his job at tottenham
    by the call of england, (that was his ambition) who can blame a man for
    ambition ? he did pick the team up to finish 4th, and then we all
    know the rest......! who can odds such a thing happening, even you
    blokes on here that like a gamble couldnt see chelsea flukeing it. lol.
    What
    i read on here about what harry says and what he shouldnt say !
    really weird? surely results on the field is what is more important,
    4th, 5th, 4th, i dont think avb will match results, but of course
    as a spurs fan i hope he does.
    Well as you will have gathered, i
    have no faith in avb whatsoever, mainly because levy isnt giving him
    the players he wants, moutinho should have been made a priority after
    modric was sold, but of course levy left it all too late to complete
    the complicated signing.

    Good luck guys and dont look back in anger, you wont see 4th this season.
    You dont know what you got until you lose i

    First word was harry, he was then mentioned 2 more times before AVB was mentioned. It was a post mainly about Arry. Seems there is some stirring being done on here. I'm not having it. It's simple. Rightly or wrongly the Mods take the decisions. We don't always get it right because like everyone else we aren't infallible. It's like that on all forums. Don't like it then you will either have to accept or you can do the other thing. As I have said many times, I don't make anyone stay. That's all.

    Now its going to be locked and the voice of reason ends the converse.
    Bit like spurs really, sack a bloke who was only ever did good for the club , and start a thread that pulls in the views, move it and lock it......wow.

    Gosh and golly !

    Gentlemen I believed I asked YOU ALL to keep personal insults out of this thread? This is developing nicely into the old skool/new skool way of viewing Spurs. I respect and take on board the pro-Redknapp stance. I'm not sure I've seen anti-Redknapp venom as such. Just posters like my-self putting their reasons across why they are understanding of Levy's decision to remove him. Keep it real guys and away from sniping and we must just see a way into the heart of OUR CLUB . . . .

    The slight difficulty Arnie is - yet again - daring Daniel has sacked another manager who has performed well 4th/5th/4th - slightly up on Jol - and replaced him with a bloke with very little persuasive evidence that you will get back to that level this season, or any time soon


    What is the PLAN Arnie

    Twelve years on you have a new Sainsburys

    You p*ssed £20 million on Stratford

    Where is the new ground ?

    Boltjean wrote:God, I can not believe what is going on here, I feel so sorry for AVB. I believe that this witch hunt has started for two reasons, and I do not think it is anything to do with our poor start, how many Spurs managers in the history of this club had a bad start to the season?, and when they did we did not boo them or get on there back, we got behind him and the players. My first reason I believe this witch hunt has started is because Harry has so many friends in the media who are not happy that he failed to get the England job followed up by his sacking from Spurs. Today we have Shearer adding fuel to the fire. My second reason is because of what happend at Chelsea. Had AVB come to us via Porto I do not believe the supporters would be getting on his back after three games. I have not seen much in the papers about how Rodgers was a bad appointment by Liverpool, all the media attention is aimed at Spurs, AVB,Levy and Harry, only one reson for this in my oppinion, disrupt our season, just like they did when they put Harry in the front of the queue for the England job, it worked then, dropped 13 points, and it will work again if we do not pull together and get behind AVB. And Lew, if I remember right you was one of those that took the micky out of me when I stuck up for Jol after he got the sack, not nice mate is it. I think you also said that Jol has gone Len and that I should get over it, now you know how I felt, and he was replaced by Ramos, now that was a disaster, but I did get over it, you must do the same with Harry.



    Len the problem lays with so many Meeja chums of Redknapp having egg on their faces after "bigging" him up for Ing-Ger-Land then seeing all their well laid plans disapear in a puff of West Brom smoke . . . .

    Nic if you wish to discuss NPD may I suggest you start a thread about it? This is about Spurs managers Past & present and goners trying to deflect way from that is kinda unnecessary.

    What a cnut


    wft nic. would mr wenger take the france job if offerd over arsenal. im sure hes been touted before when he was a good manager. yet he perfer club football

    The strange thing is Vis is that before Arry came to
    The Lane he barely ever said a word to the meeja, almost deaf and dumb
    His first three and a half years he was Spuds manager utterly silent, interviewers could barely get a word out of him

    Well other than the occasional "my Sandra could have scored that"

    But you lurveed him, you forgave him, you strained to hear him speak through the car window

    Until he was sacked
