    Would laugh my tiny c0ck off if they got Val in to whip their Prima Donnas into some sort of shape.

    Should have gone for Graham Potter. Problem was at the time he was linked the Spurs fans were having a meltdown because he wasn't Conte and wasn't a big enough name.

    Now they're all making him their first choice.

    Potter would be my guess too, he's got Brighton playing some great football.

    I hope he sticks two fingers up at them to be honest and stays with Brighton for the season. He's Southgate replacement material in another two and a half years or could end up somewhere like Everton when they eventually realise Rafa is a dud.

    Don’t you mean ‘Rafa’s yet another dud’ ? (Hope my punctuation is up to scratch for jamdrop)

    Out of all the hordes of journalists descending on Tottenham Stadium and their training complex, I wonder which poor sod has been dispatched off to Oakwell?;)

    Sky reporting Conte is in London already with talks at an advanced stage.

    Say what you like about Daniel Levy but he doesn’t mess about. He’ll have probably got the deal done before sacking Nuno.

    Conte's on a hiding to nothing taking that job on.

    really? I'd say the opposite. he takes the job with assurances. if it doesn't work out, he knows he leaves with a sweet sweet pay off and walks straight into another job. managers will be queuing up for these jobs.

    Also just realised Antonio Conte heads the list for biggest manager pay off ever. Cost Chelsea about £26m to sack him in 2018. Then walked straight inter(sic) Milan job (pun intended).

    Tottenham are a bit like Barnsley but with a better stadium and bigger debt. At times play attractive football, take the lead and then lose it,Spursy is easier to rhyme than Barnsleysy.
    Anyway my point is that both clubs are poorly run and volatile, as an outsider looking in.
    Why would Graham Potter and others leave their clubs to go there? Same with Newcastle United too. They are building something year on year and have a modicum of control, something they would lose the moment they put pen to paper. The priority of THFC (and Barnsley to a lesser extent), is to make money.
    Not having a go at you Ben or anyone else but as the great Keith Burkinshaw said of Spurs,
    "There used to be a football club over there". It's just modern football.

    Genuine question. Don't they give some of that payoff back if they find another job within x amount of time? That's the way I've always understood it. That's why some managers deliberately sit it out for 12 months.
