Sol Campbell is 100/1 @Skybet

I wouldn't even let Sol Campbell manage the Spurs toilets.

Most of his offices in the past have been in the khazi.

Sol Campbell - Shiiit manager

It's no coincidence that the two clubs leading this whole ESL thing are Man United and Liverpool, both with U.S owners.

Whoever came up with the fit and proper person test didn't think hard enough about what constitutes a safe pair of hands. Criminal convictions are the obvious but those that have a wilful disregard for history, tradition and local community shouldn't really be declared fit and proper. Every owner should have a contractual obligation to respect those rules to avoid this whole ESL thing from happening.

I honestly think it's too late. It's happening. The big clubs hold all the aces and they're probably very well prepared for the backlash that's hit them. It won't have come as a surprise. If it doesn't happen right now, it absolutely will do in the next few years. In fairness, it probably is the next natural step in a game that is far more global now that it was at the start of the PL. The whole idea of founding clubs though is total bull. In principle it's not terrible but the idea of not allowing any cash to feed the pyramid and cutting off the dreams of the lower teams is crazy. To not allow promotion or relegation just makes a mockery of competition. I think it will happen but I think amends will be made to please all parties before it's rolled out. In its current guise, it's so ruthlessly greedy.

Sorry think I just posted the above in the wrong thread

You are right. It is an american model. It reeks of Glaziers, FSG and Kronke. Funking american sl@gs.

ALLEGRI....Kane and Son are not going to be convinced to stay with any other manager with no pedigree or league titles.

There is no manager that guarantees Spurs titles. We're just that sort of club.

All we can try and do is pick someone who will take us in the right direction the way Poch did.

Rafa Benitez is the best option for us...
