Part of that plan was Chelsea playing games at WHL wasn't it...? That's one way to get Poch back in the home dressing room!
Can't see us turning that down if given the go ahead from the powers that be either. It's too much money involved.

Not sure if this is the same for anyone else but Twitter's trending sidebar is interesting today...

I've been close to it reading:

#DianeAbbot
#Bummed
#Jeremy Corbyn

and now I've almost got

#MauricioPochettino
#Bummed
#MasonMount
That's definitely a niche algorithm created on the basis of your viewing habits! ;-)

The last I saw, the plan was not to move anywhere while the new ground was built somewhere else, was it Earls Court?

I'm sorry what?... There's a suggestion we can share our stadium with Chelsea?! They can do one.

I won’t forgive him. His prerogative, but he knows what it means. Elements of spite in the decision imo.
There really aren't.

Can't believe how many people on here are taking this so personally.
Some really odd views in here, almost emotionally stunted!

In fairness, Hoddle managed Chelsea and I don't see anyone calling him a traitor for it - let's face it, Glenn is more of a Spurs man too.

Don't be so hard on yourself.
Still can’t believe he's doing this to us. Trying to kill us.

Daniel Levy may be the reason he is not coming here.

But he is not the reason he is going to Chelsea, that is his choice and his alone, he's shitting on us.

Oil doped, Racist, nonce club.

Easy to reject if you have anything about you.

Well personally I think there is almost no job lesser than the Chelsea one.

Bending over and spreading on a street corner has more kudos.

Don't be so hard on yourself.
Erm...

I make no apologies for being disappointed in a man claiming he would never manager a rival, saying Chelsea are our biggest rivals…Then going and doing that.Clearly he was either lying about his principles or he's trying to hurt us.

You won’t find a single post of mine criticising Poch ever because I've never done it. I even said we should protest the night he was sacked, I'm more team Poch than anyone, I thought he was one of us.

I'm allowed to feel let down.

I loved poch but nothing would please me more than seeing him sacked after about 6 months to be quite honest

I do understand the emotion involved for some here but he's really not trying to hurt us.
As long as it's not Arsenal, I'm not too bothered really because as much as I hate Chelsea, I don't really consider them rivals apart from the fact they're in the same city.

Plenty of managers and players have switched between the two clubs over the years and Poch needs to get back into work.
He loves the league and lives in London, it's kind of a no-brainer for him now that we don't want him.

Am I a bit gutted that he's going to them? Sure but it's not a slight against us or the club.
He's a manager that wants to work and I can't begrudge him for taking this opportunity (even if I hope it fails - which will also be kinda sad).

I do get this kind of pragmatism as well. I'm just not quite seeng it like that.

Every time he puts on a Chelsea tracksuit he's trying to hurt us In my mind

If he takes the job and says I'm a Spurs man I'm only here for the dirty money, I'll take it all back.

Yeah, seeing him in Chelsea gear for the first time is going to be really odd and I do wish he'd gone elsewhere, just there weren't many options available and the longer he's out of the game, the harder it will be to get a top job.

I'm torn because I want him to fail because he's at Chelsea but I don't want him to fail because it's Poch and I love the bloke!

Who cares honestly. I was shitting it when Potter got the job thought it would be a game changer, he'll crash and burn at that shitshow

Most Spursy thing ever is if one of our best managers who won nothing here goes and tears it up there.
Whilst there successful managers all failed miserably at Spurs
