Not prison, something like a commissariat. He had to testify for Valbuena's sex-tape extortion case. He has nothing to do with it, will return to Madrid tomorrow.

If I had to guess he probably didn't do much wrong. But just getting involved in first place is lol. Of course I don't have details but try avoiding your childhood friend's trivial issues.

Personally I thought my link to a picture of Neil Warnock viewing a grumble film on deadline day merited more discussion than the French bloke getting nicked. HE DOESN'T EVEN PLAY IN ENGLAND.

Pool have like £70m yearly revenue advantage on you and your matchday revenue is 23% of total. If you are defining league equity to mean current squads and recent transfer history then ok, but going forward assuming fairly equal transfer run good I don't see how you can claim to have equal title equity. And you aren't making up the difference with a new stadium if anything it will be a smaller % of total revenue in 3 years.

And Levy will continue to sign 'top 5' talent that will fail, sell them for a loss, and be praised.

We've been over this already this year. The chance of Spurs getting anywhere near a meaningful closing of the gap between them and arsenal/city/chelsea/united in terms of revenue in the near future is absurd.

Swissramble posted on this, we pointed this out to HH a month ago and he kind of slumped away but is bringing this up again like it never happened.

Spurs new stadium will have capacity only slightly larger than Arsenal. Chelsea are going to redevelop Stamford Bridge (no doubt renamed Yokahama Plastics) to around the same capacity. What advantage do spurs have? They're just trying to keep up it seems.

Slumped away from what?

I was incorrect in stating that Spurs could overtake Arsenal in net worth within a decade.

The first time I have ever been wrong itt and only because I never thought about it for more than five seconds.

I am the greatest.

Last year Spurs had ~£160m less in revenue than Arsenal, £130m less than Chelsea. Good luck.

this nfl thing is absurd btw. Apparently there are going to still be games at Wembley, as well as at Twickers and new WHL. Hope you enjoy the revenues of the 17 people who turn up to watch Jacksonville beat Oakland.

also, presumably spurs will have stadium debt for a while that means they won't be able to spend big like Arsenal?

playing regular season games in a different country is absurd to begin with. Imagine the posting here and in less nuanced places if next week West Ham were playing in Massachusetts?

I presume the new tv deal will help a ton, but swiss ramble had a good blog on their situation which is worth reading. I remember very little of it, because lol spurs.

There will be no debt repayments on the new Spurs stadium. I don't know how Levy will manage his but that's what he said and he has a masters in economics from Cambridge.

He's just living up to the Colin Wanker nickname so not really remarkable.

I don't think anyone gives a **** about Neil Warnock to be honest.

I knew it had gone well for Leicester recently but when you actually see it like this it's a ridiculous run of results.

I wouldn't come close to backing them, but I think Leicester will be in the race for Europe for a lot of time this year.

7th. Not bad.

I guess 11 this season - awful. 3 at the end of last season don't count as already won league. So 6 games where performance level was acceptable to very good.

Insane rungood. They are a relegation battling side with a striker on the run of his life.

Yeah but Plop spend nearly all that extra money on wages, have spewed £150m more than Spurs on transfers in the last 3 seasons, are still no better off on the pitch and in a couple of seasons will have a far worse ground.

Yes, but were talking about Spurs V Plop. And who knows, once the stadium is built we might get bought out by some billionaire Arabs.
