    Get your players in the area mate, the penalty's will come.

    Bitterness eats from the inside out :(

    Yeah, our players never go into the box and yours go in more than any other team in Premier League history. Righto! <laugh>
    Definitely more attacking than Liverpool and City. <ok>

    If your debt was on commercial terms it would probably cost 100m a year in interest and capital which would mean you wouldn’t be able to sign anyone. Debt free you might be worth a billion.

    So is your half bil loan costing you £50m per year in interest?

    No because our loan is secured and our club is solvent. Chelsea have negative net assets to the tune of half a billion which would make borrowing the money expensive or more likely impossible

    Interesting :emoticon-0118-yawn:
    Football must be so much fun for you.

    So in the unlikely event that our owner
    a) Goes bankrupt
    b) Decides to call in a debt from his own club that he knows cannot be repaid
    c) Rather than sell the club and cut his losses

    then I will start giving a ****.

    I'll take your word on that <laugh>

    If you borrowed £500m to build the ground who paid for the rest of the development?

    Does ENIC actually own it and not Spurs?

    Weird deal financially though, he only had 1 year left on his contract and they’ve only given him a 2 year deal yet paid £22million for him.

    I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.

    There is no set of fans more obsessed with club finances than Spurs. Enic have made far too many Spurs fans care more about balance sheets than trophies and real success. And if you dare mention spending ‘big’ money then the brainwashed copy and paste their usual ‘Leeds, Portsmouth etc’

    £22m for someone of that pedigree is good going though, plus the club has the option for a third year. That’s probably about right for a 29 year old as it potentially takes him to 32.

    Ooof, Nicolo Zaniolo, who’s been linked to us a couple times in the last 12 months, has apparently done his ACL whilst playing for Italy. He done his ACL back in January too but on the other knee. That’s rough luck man. Feel for the guy. Very talented young player but injuries like that can wreck or severely impact their career.
