    He has signed a two year contract
    Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou has agreed to become Tottenham's new manager on a two-year contract.
    The final elements of the deal are being finalised before an announcement.
    He has won the Australian title with South Melbourne and Brisbane Roar, Japan's top flight with Yokohama F Marinos and also led the Australian national team to victory at the 2015 Asian Cup.

    Postecoglou takes over a Tottenham side who finished eighth in the Premier League and face a first season without European football since 2009-10.

    Will he overtake our neighbours or will they beat us home and away?

    My favourite bit is when he asserts that no one at all thought they'd make top 4 and invites us to search youtube to prove it, then puts up a list of people many of whom predicted top 4 finish for them.

    To have been top as they were, more so in the business
    end of the season, with the pts gap they had, no
    involvement in domestic/UEFA competitions, and Citeh :

    1, sensing that in the CL this year could be their year
    (you cannot tell me they would not have ditched the PL
    if it would guarantee they win the CL)

    2. still in the FA cup (which is a deadly creator of fixture congestion)


    yeah, they blew it big time.

    I think twas rcl who summarised it as objectively they should
    be proud/disappointed with the outcome, but that on the
    banter side, what is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.

    You obviously have a strong conviction on the topic.

    Probably , I've lived here since i was a teenager, now middle aged so i know what its like . The media here have gone absolutely nuts, all the talk shows, news reports etc. We've created our own bit of history by having him at Spurs.
