A few weeks work for very good money and the lure of a PL role in the most likely scenario?fenaddick said:

Don’t forget they can afford to pay more than the average Championship wage even if relegated.I doubt the finances are a huge gamble for either party.0 -
Spurs last visit to NZ was 1976. An old chap who rang talkback said he was in the Auckland team that day in May.
Auckland were leading 3-2 when a young man came on for Tottenham and carved the home team apart and Spurs won 5-3.
It was Glenn Hoddle.

The match was postponed the previous evening due to fog and then played the day after.1 -

Not sure about that tbh, the Championship is a tough division, they won’t find it so easy next season…9 -

Don’t forget they can afford to pay more than the average Championship wage even if relegated.I doubt the finances are a huge gamble for either party.General views are they could lose around 200 million quid with a relegation.And that is IF they were to come back up at the first attempt.0 -

Fucking right too if you are RdZ. He was holding all of the cards.fenaddick said:BBC are saying there's no form of relegation clause in the contract, absolutely mental0 -

But not the point I’m making. They will still (in that scenario) pay above average in the Championship as do all relegated teams - hence to some degree parachute payments.ElfsborgAddick said:valleynick66 said:

Not sure that will be in his thinking.

Tottenham's wage bill compared to current Championship clubs.

Well they're going to have to make some sacrifices if they want to survive more than one season in the champ

When they visit Auckland, they'll be playing the A-League winners. First time ever a team from NZ won the competition (they beat Sydney 1-0 on Saturday in the Grand Final).0

Sounds like the perfect pre-season jaunt if they want to get it right next season and achieve relegation at the third attempt. Must have been gutting for them to finish 17th for two seasons running.Danepak said:When they visit Auckland, they'll be playing the A-League winners.

Only Spurs could mess up getting relegated in such a fashion.letthegoodtimesroll said:

It's almost like they actually wanted to stay up after all.1 -
The clips of O’Hara and Cundy on TalkSport continue to be very funny. I have a feeling that all those signings for Spurs should come good eventually, but if they have to sack De Zerbi because he has a poor run, they would simply be the club that cannot stop giving1

I asked my Spurs mate which match he would rather have won , against us or the Magpies. He hasn’t answered yet. 😆8

I think their chicken is in a £300 million KFC bucket…1

If i was a Spurs fan i'd be a bit worried by his post-match comment on Saturday - "unfortunately you can't buy the mentality in the transfer market".
Surely you can? You can buy experienced players who've been there and done it. A manager would surely want to know if a signing had the right mentality (no dickheads policy) that aligns with what you want to do and if you felt he wasn't right you wouldn't sign him.
