akqayid said that we arent selling outright. just an injection of investment to buy a % by a consortium.
Cheers....

Granted but as things stand we dont know if its the closure of Spurs Lodge or from another area of the club, or even confirmed numbers...
I just thought it might give some legs to the idea that the club could be being bought, change of ownership and all that jazz... Shot in the dark i guess, thanks for the clarification...
I'll shut up now
One hypothetical is that maybe we were quite away down the line with potential new owners to the point of almost finalising and they didn't see Harry as the man to guide the club into a new era and got Levy to get rid so that they weren't the bad guys when they officially took over. Highly unlikely obviously but maybe not impossible.
Also if Levy does stay on as chairman then he would have made the decision regardless I guess
But this all hinges on and if we are being brought out at all, and it was hinted at earlier it may be more of a % investment rather than than buy out so that means all of the above is utter rubbish, which it was really - Sorry for wasting your time!
To me its too early in a tumoured takeover for office staff to be reduced whereas we know the training ground is being closed - which is why put the idea forward. But I could be wrong.
Hope your TUPE experience went well - always a stressfull experience !
That sounds seriously nasty.
Not sure we would get a player doing a medical in the middle of a takeover/major investment. Especially with no manager in place. Hmmm seems to be an awful lot going on anyway.
Without doubt I would rather we sign players just a bit confused with everything that's going on.No problem with player acquisotion - usually a clause in the contract says the management continue to run the company in the normal way (although often any major acquisitions would be discussed).
If the manager were soon to be agreed, it may well be Levy talked to the new incoming manager. Bit of a balancing act, but would you prefer to sign no players (and miss out on some perhaps) or progress negotiations on player acquisitions so they can be signed directly a manager gets involved (and maybe signing top players like a CB Vertanghen). I would sure prefer to progress a number of acquisitions rather than us do nothing !

Bought players who we could afford from money generated from football, and a great manager knitted them together. So we did it better than our similarly-financed rivals at the time. If you can't see the difference between that and the Chelski/Citeh scenario then I pity you.What do you think we did in 1961?
JJ also posts at odd times.
Different time zone, high exec?
Kelmsley???????

Could be. Think they'd prefer majority ownership in that case...
Possibly
Harry Enfield??
I'm interested to know though, putting money in usually means wanting more money out...how will this happen?
saw photo of Sigurdsson having successfully completed his medical in a Spurs top
From the ITK. Much as i'd like it to be true, why exactly would he put on a Spurs top for a private medical?
