I'd be interested to know who was ejected and who decided they didn't want to stay and actually chose to leave.
Has this been confirmed because they both worked together on the youth setup and seemed to do a good job with chris ramseyWhat was Clive Allen's role at Spurs?
Les Ferdinand has gone as well. Only Sherwood and Parks have survived the cull.
Beats hearing about it via twitter like Harry did .
Yes - Ferdinand said himself said on Talksport and it's in all that the media that Sherwood is being groomed for a greater role at present - but suppose that could change depending on appointment.Has this been confirmed because they both worked together on the youth setup and seemed to do a good job with chris ramsey

Just to reiterate some chat from the Twitter Thread in the Tranny Forum (seriously, Rob won't let me call it that, which is sooooooo unfair), Windy who follows the youth set-up closely commented that he felt to a degree pleased that Clive Allen had gone as his influence from the touchline was little more than swearing at the kids. He also pointed out that Clive had become very much part of the Redknapp entourage alongside Jordan and Bond, which gave Levy no option, really. Windy is a lovely, lovely bloke and I'd take his opinion and analysis from genuinely match situations ahead of a sentiment that anyone was/is "Spurs through-and-through".
I love Clive as much as the next Yiddo but this is a crucial role and kids need world class tutelage. If Clive didn't deliver that, then I understand why he needed to go. All the best to him, though.
My understanding is that as tax dodge, Harry was not employed directly by the club. We instead retained the services of a company which employed Harry, but also Kevin and Joe. So when we severed our contract with Twitch Independent Traders Ltd. we presumably parted company not just with Harry, but also Bond and Jordan.They would be daft to just leave as they wouldn't get compensation.

Pleat thought Allen one of the best young coaches around and went out of his way to head hunt him. Jol, Ramos and Redknapp all kept him on, and I would take their opinion before Windy's, who actually talks quite a bit of crap. Clive does get rather impassioned on the touchline, but I am pretty sure there is more to him than shouting. When he managed the rezzies he had them playing some hugely entertaining football, and got results too. But in any case, under Harry he had no involvement with the youth set up, his job was taking first team training sessions.
He was presumably axed because had become too close to Harry, rather than for any reasons of professional competence or because of his corrupting influence on Tottenham's youth.
I should point out that I would rate the view of this chap here rather highly too. ^^^
Personally I like Windy and think he talks sense, but I'll admit to being very surprised by his analysis of Clive Allen. I'm sure you're right when you suggest his dismissal has more to do with getting close to Team Harry.
