If we finished 4th with Redknapp, would you swap him for Jose Mourinho if he became available or would you stick with Harry?

Stick with Harry.
We re playing good quality football which the whole league is taking notice of

Stick with Redknapp for me, don't like Mourinho's playing style nor the fact that he is all about Mourinho rather than the club he is at.

Mourinho is 2nd behind Wenger imo so obv would jump at the chance on him being our manager.

Harry's doing a great job though

1. If Harry remained with Spurs it would most probably be his last club position and so if it suited both parties it would almost certainly be a long-ish term relationship. That assumption is based on his tenure being relatively successful, ie a cup or two and a proper tilt at the fourth position in the Premiership.

2. If we ditched Harry on the basis that we chased Jose Mourinho and were successful in acquiring his services, it would not be cheap and it would be on condition that Mourinho delivered. Then, given his status, he would be off in a season or two leaving Spurs probably better off than he found us, but again with no longevity in staff and training etc.

To summarise on the above points, I would stick with Harry to see how far, actually, this man can take a Club willing to back him with funds and trust.

You're a brave man. I started a thread stating the same thing, decided to put in general to avoid the backlash.

So far no backlash. So well done.

Stick for me. Harry would have done well if we get that 4th place.

But like I said, if we finish 5/6th and there was a chance of Mourinho - sure Levy would be interested. Whether it would equate to anything is another matter.

I hope and expect that we'll keep Harry - he's done triffic, we're playing really well. I'd also like to see whether some consistency will yield us results.

I admire Mourinho, but let's face it his teams aren't noted for their styish football.

For once, it's not broken at Spurs and doesn't need fixing.

Yeah if we got him Man U would snap him up when Fergie does leave and we'd be back to square one

it would be absolutely shameful to ditch Harry ATM - thankfully Levy wouldn't do such a thing (I hope anyway)

horrible idea

If harry got us there then Harry should stay, it would be the best we have done

Last time we ditched our best manager in years (Jol) for a `world class` manager Ramos it backfired

We'd have to break the wage structure, pay compensation, Jose would want better players who want 100k+ wages a week. I'd say no, maybe in 2-3 years time. Harry is the right man still

I think Jose is the nuts, would have him in a flash, but surely Harry would deserve the chance to come back.
I'd have to say stick with Harry.

This will come regardless of who's incharge if we want to kick on though won't it?
