What’s funny is a forum of work-shirking transfer-fanatic football fans didn’t know anything about this either. Yet it’s OH MY GOD THIS IS THE MOST OBVIOUS THING EVER.

Yeah it’s not great - or at least not presented well - but I’d like to consider myself well informed on this sort of stuff and had no clue about it.
I heard about it about an hour ago and apparently its a recent change. Still though, they’re a multi-million business dealing with multi-million pound assets.

Sorry but this is ludicrous.

Its not a football fan's duty to know a rule like this.

It is a football club's and the people running it

Some of our fans losing their shit over something totally out of their control. Shame we can't transfer them out for some better one's :)

This is right up there with the closing of window where Levy was running around Spain with a wheelbarrow full of cash

I’m not bothered about the financial implications of terminating Doherty’s contract - could have maybe sold for a fee eventually, but are now saving on wages to a surplus player, so whatever.

The fact we got to this position, however - where we have so many surplus players we can’t even loan them anymore - is utterly, utterly farcical.

I’m not saying it is. It’s interesting none of you knew about it though - isn’t it?

EDIT FOR UNDERSTANDING: this obviously doesn’t take away responsibility for those at the club. Just this forum loves detail and it was lacking. Which I found interesting. Was genuine comment not sarcasm. Thanks.

You got some statistical evidence to back that up?

Did spurs actually announce it was a loan for doc? Seems only Romano said it was a loan based on the stuff in the doc thread.

Yes exactly.
The people trying to form the counter argument in here aren't really paying attention to why people aren't happy with this.

Tottenham might be an absolutely embarrassing shambles.

but they’re my embarrassing shambles.

Up the fucking Spurs. Don’t know why we believe it’ll ever be any different.

There is only one person that needs terminating…
Indeed. Paratici should be fired on the spot for the shambles of Doherty today.
It is literally his job to know the bloody rules.
Will be amazed if he lasts the week (both for this and the situation in Italy now window is over)

I am not one to defend the club but people are losing their shit on a supposed massive fuck-up with no evidence to back this up?

We still love you Stoof, even if you did fuck Doc... ?
