Don't disagree; just find it interesting how many people bemoaned (and are still angry about) the departure of the man who oversaw our inglorious exit from the FA Cup this season....Funny people, football fans.

Maybe it's the parent in me, but I wonder how his mum and dad are feeling right now? And on what planet did Luke think this would remain private?

Interesting that; looking at the Liverpool Echo site it reminded me of the Mirror's website....and look who owns the Liverpool Echo? You guessed it....

Hasn't he signed for Sunderland?

Am I allowed to know how you know this?

What makes you think that S-Clarke? Genuine question.

Hang on a minute - You say NC wasn't a risk taker in one post but then state that KL - his boss - thought his strategy of increased investment was too risky, which led to him walking. So which is it? Was NC a risk taker or not? If he was, then he was indeed a potential danger to the club.

Post of the day - and some rational, objective thinking to boot; in rare supply around here at the moment....

Why then, if everything was going so swimmingly, did Markus's daughter feel the need to intervene and restructure the top level of the club? If NC was so convinced of his own righteousness with regard to the way he was running the club, why did he walk?

And maybe he would have been spending money he had no right to spend pushing us towards another financial precipice....ever considered that?

Presumably implying that you expect a new manager to have been identified, approached, interviewed, terms agreed and unveiled....in the mere 6 or so days since MP left?

Maybe, but my point is still valid. When was the last time you heard a player say " yeah, everything's great - the board, the manager, the chairman; but I'm leaving anyway"?

Presumably therefore the ones who are leaving, or wanting to leave, yes? In which case, it probably suits them to say such things.

So what do you suggest we do?

I get where you're coming from but given that the only cash Spurs spent last summer was what they got for Bale, I just can't see them stumping up upwards of £40m for 3 of our players. I would also hope the board would have the good sense to reject any offers!

He can 'want' all he likes; doesn't mean he'll get those players. Levy won't splash that kind of cash and all Spurs can offer - that we can't - is a few games in the Europa League against Cyprus's finest. Hardly a major pull is it?

Fairly sure that was a mock up done on the 14/15 kit thread. Even more sure the owner said they might try and leak it and claim it was next season's actual kit....

This x 1000

Is it worth also suggesting that, given Sam's recent tragic loss, MP must be like a surrogate father for him? I would think it unlikely that Sam would sign if the father-figure of MP were about to jump ship. Not saying it's impossible, but this to me is a positive sign about MP's future with us too.

Seeing it again on the replay , I would agree with you.

Poor effort Lallana; should have scored.

Surely it has 0-0 written all over it....? ;-)

Hoorah. Well worth his nomination. Good stuff, and well done Adam!

Just out of interest, why have you put a question mark at the end of your first sentence....when it's not a question?

Yes, I see what you mean. Would make an interesting sociological study wouldn't it? Knowing that you don't (legally) have to buy something but knowing at the same time that not doing do could force ST prices up. Really fascinating.
