Does Charlie get a percentage of the fee, or a fixed amount? If it’s the former, I hope we sell Kane for 5m and a 155m tuckshop sponsorship from Etihad. Johnny Drama doesn’t deserve to make big money off his brother (especially if it is by acting like a petulant child about a contract he was happy to sign).

That's a distinction that doesn't actually exist. His brother does it on his behalf and the ultimate responsibility lies with the client not the employee
carrying out his bidding per instruction or as advised to him.

Biggest shitter for me in him going is that we were mugged off in giving him a massive payrise for the past couple of years only for him to throw his toys out half way through his contract. I have no problem with any player wanting to move on if it's coming to the end of their time, especially if they've given us some great service as he obviously has, but if you want a big payrise and commit yourself for the time period to get it...at least be prepared to see through the rough times. Either that or take a bit less money and a bit less of an extension. That would have been an option. Just comes off as greedy and entitled, and that's a shame.
At the end of the day no player is bigger than the club. I've seen Klinsmann go, Teddy, Bale, Berbatov, Carrick, Modric, Keane, and even if it takes a while, we're in a better place now than when they were here. I hope that we absolutely rinse City for him and with a proper footballing man now in charge of the squad, really go to town on it and set ourselves up for the next few years.
Just a shame that H couldn't have had more of a dialogue and a connection with the fans throughout, as if he does go, this all feels very hollow for someone who'd achieved as much in our shirt as he has. That Neville interview and this bollocks in the press will live long in the memory, sadly.

Bollocks. Like most people, nowadays, you cannot tell the difference between "opinion" and evidence.
And your post is the slyest kind of fake, passive-aggressive, dishonestly "sincere" slime, managing to be ingratiating and patronising in the same breath.
Let's be honest about it he is not leaving because of his supposed trophy quest because if that were the case he would have shown up in the finals he played in for us. It's about the big pay day and the 400.000 pound a week he will be getting.
As much as I have loved watching him prove everyone wrong about the one season wonder, the way he has handled this with the interview, allowing his brother to mouth off and apparently trying to force the clubs hand after he is only half way through a 6 year contract he was only to willing to sign, means he has went down in my estimation.
If he goes so be it but I hope as a club we stay true to our word and accept nothing less than at the very least 160 million for him.

I disagree, I do believe he's leaving purely for the trophy chase.
It's just that he's kopping out and not prepared to help the team get back to fighting for trophies again. He sees City as a clear path to winning them.
The problem is he signed a six-year contract and if his brother had been wiser, he would have told him not to sign on for so long because it's Tottenham, and we are not United or City, because of that we can't buy our way to success.
I'm going to be kind and assume they are not stupid. Therefore he signed that six year contract because he was committed to Tottenham despite the potential bumps along the way because no-one signs a six year contract if they have intentions of running off at the first sign of trouble.
We had ITK that he wanted to leave last summer. So what does that tell you? One bad season and he wants to leave.
It's very disappointing and doesnt lead much support to him being a dedicated supporter because he'd at least wait a little longer like Sonny is.
But I don't think its about money.

Wow. I have seen some aggressive, caustic responses on SC over the years, but this is beyond the pale. It’s mean and patronizing. You have interpreted their comment as passive aggressive and assumed their intent was to use conciliatory language to obfuscate their true intent, which was to take you to task. I don’t really understand this level of anger and unkindness. I find it wholly abusive and completely unnecessary. I have no idea why you would choose to speak to someone like that, who went out of their way to be politely critical, without punching under the belt.
That said, intent can be misinterpreted online. Maybe you didn’t mean this to sound the way it did to me, at least. Or, maybe you did. Lord knows I’ve been the ire of one of your oratory lashings. Hence why I have you in the ignore list. But felt a need to say something when I saw this. Just doesn’t feel like it is in the spirit of being at least a slightly respectful community of fellow Spurs supporters.
Right… back to Harry Kane… hope he stays, but for the first time since the end of the season, I’m starting to come around to the idea that he is leaving and I’m very, very bummed. Just hope we take City to the cleaners.

I meant it to sound at least as harsh as it sounded. The post I was responding to was vile, in the slimiest possible way. As I said: "ingratiating and passive-aggressive in the same breath". I couldn't have put it better myself.
And incorrect, which is worse.
And you're just as bad. You're lying. If I'm on your "ignore" list, you wouldn't have seen my post. No one quoted it.
Something about the ITK forum brings out the bullshit in people and bullshit brings out the rudeness in me.
I don't belong in this forum. Too much bullshit to tolerate.
Now please put me back on "ignore", so I don't need to deal with your shit anymore.

If he’s off, which seems likely now, I really hope we don’t just invest in a replacement but also another decent wide forward so that we have quality to replace Son should he ever play in the central forward role, as well as a quality player that has the ability to score 15 plus goals a season- we’re really going to miss Kane’s goals and assists

Agree. He could have been honest, and upfront about wanting to leave in order to win trophies and handed in a transfer request. But then that would have cost him money as he would have lost his loyalty ? bonus.

If they’re only offering 200k I think they are a bit short of Daniel’s price.

Really does feel like the Bake window all over again apart from not one itk has actually said he is defo off like JJ did.
All singing the same hymn regarding the price so we surely can't be spending his money but I am though resigned to losing him.
Just feel City will pay whatever. Just hope we actually spend it wisely not like last time bar 1 or 2.

Do you really think his brother isn't doing this with his blessing? And to push him to a club that buys trophies with blood money rather than win them with "his club"? If he really cared about Spurs, winning here would be the ultimate prize. What makes you more of a legend than leading your club to the promised land? To leave and go somewhere for a guaranteed trophy to pad your resume because you think you "deserve" trophies? Sorry but at this point Sonny deserves the "one of our own" chant more than Harry.
And if I put my tinfoil hat on, he had that interview leak early so we wouldn't make champions league so it would be easier for him to be sold (or so he thought).
