This makes sense. At the moment spurs are having to organically invest. I don't personally think we'll achieve the desired sponsorship until we're in the CL again. At Lewis's age and how long he has held the investment, it would make sense to sell at a premium now.

Lewis has had enough. Blowing that Bale Golden Windfall ended in thoughts he had of us competing under his ownership. He has had trouble securing full finance for the rebuild. Levy wants to be kept on for a period of time if we are sold. To Lewis this is not important. They had words over this month's ago. Levy was made fully aware he is very much the junior partner. Lewis knows Levy has balled up these past two years. Spurs went from a vibrant attractive worldwide proposition to also ran in two years. Lewis is not a philanthropist. He wants out.

no matter what, we are an attractive purchase. Full of potential. If Lewis wants out, lets just hope he does so in a way that we also benefit from the windfall. Do not want a Howard Schultz style sale. Asshole ripped the heart out of Seattle when he got rid of the Sonics.

Another grumpy old man?
There are quite a few around....you would think he would be really happy as the fuel for yacht is so much cheaper, he will be on the phone telling all his mates at the golf club and boring them rigid.

Or he simply recognizes his inability to take the club forward, whereas Levy is too stubborn to give up on his grand scheme.

Not sure what you are trying to say. Lewis bought the club to be run as self supporting. He put Levy in charge of running it. People might not agree with it and want a sugar daddy and that's fair enough. But that isn't Joe (although he did put in £40m summer before last). It might have worked if City hadn't come along. We would have been regulars in the CL for a few years. Could have kept our best players and used the money to buy better. We may even have had a crack at the title. But they did and we didn't.
If he sold tomorrow he would make a massive profit.

puttin it in here as well as in the stadium thread
interesting stuff from prof/galahad on coys:
A combination of information from Galahad at WHL, and from his cousin Gabe across the pond.
"The NFL decision is close. Getting them on board would have a huge impact on what happens next with the stadium, and on the ownership of THFC. The latter issue only depends on the NFL decision insomuch as it impacts the size of the deal.
CH are keen on us either way. Have offered JL two deals, depending on NFL outcome. Uncertain if they're the only players; some whispers of an offer soon to arrive from another group. No idea who. Depending on JL's comfort level with what's been presented to him, and the NFL choice, this decision could come sooner rather than later. The opportunity is right there for him, if he wants out.
The upcoming weeks have the potential to be monumental for the future of THFC. That's not hyperbole. Wheels are in motion. It's possible we come away with no change in ownership, and no NFL. Much depends on how JL plays his hand."
i guess CH= cain hoy

Hope they weren't watching today then.
No thanks. I want a mega rich arab. Pour his money into our stadium. Secure a multi million pound sponsor not some investment company who want to sell on in the future.
I'm still waiting for RA to get "tired" of his play thing called Chelsea oh and for Sheik Monsour to get bored with Citeh.
They are now bigger than us in terms of global support and marketing appeal.

Why would any Arab buy us when we are known as having jewish links and sometimes wave a flag with the star of david on it?
