Was a question I got asked by a Spurs fan today. Not bothered about the real answer (it got swallowed in the loses etc) but I could hardly say players as looking at the way the squad is playing it looks like it hasn't had any investment for 2-3 years!!

Anyone going anywhere nice on their holidays this year?

    A large proportion of it has gone on the Fans Directors' expense account.

    It's being paid in installments...so we're due another £10 soon

    Most of it went backing Iain Dowie, the rest has gone in backing Alan Pardew. Don't think that there will be anything left now.

    it's a 2-3-4-5-6 year plan
    we've made a lot of changes this year
    we've been unlucky with injuries
    the refs have been against us
    blah blah blah

    The correct answer to the Darren Bent money is we got £5.5m when he signed & further installments of £5.5m due at the end of this season & next season = £16.5m. Basically it has all been used to offset some of the tv revenue losses this season.
