right well, I'm off to bed. found this very interesting, and want AVB regardless of my bet. Think he'd suit us down to the ground.

Hopefully the delay is as jair1970 suggested he thought it could be; a clause from Chav payoff. fingers crossed.

Good article in the ling from Sum Monsterism - makes a good case for AVB

And let's be honest Spurger.....you ain't going to catch Hugrr without greasing a few palms. He's got you on volume.

Eh?

I'm not going to act like an idiot and say I haven't noticed the ratings I've received, and it's always nice to get an indication that other Spurs fans agree or like my comments - of course it is. I also know that I probably piss off plenty of people by posting too much and making bad jokes, but that they're not necessarily going to give me a negative rating because they don't agree with it.

But please don't suggest - even in gest - that I see this as some sort of ratings war. I come on this forum for Spurs stuff and non-Spurs stuff. Hugrr provides some fantastic pictures, comments, gifs, videos...and considering how much he puts into this site it's great to see that being recognised. If this ranking system had been in place a few years ago you could add Bomber, L.A Yiddo, Mil1ion, BBLG, DJS, RSS (), Houdini, A&C, Dibby, Cosmic, MattyP, MattySpur, Shanks, ArnoldToo, and a bunch of other posters that are no longer on here to the list of high rating posters. I'm just able to post a lot more than them right now, and ultimately that means fuck all to measuring quality.

I'll be sure to 'like' all your posts in the future if that's some ultimate goal. I appreciate the positive and negative feedback from other posters, but I'm just here for the great conversations.

At risk of stating the obvious - wasn't there a realistic possibility of Harry leaving for the England job? Surely Levy and co would be looking around at who could replace him?

This is the bit that I don't get... unless the one we were after has got another job. Anyone got a list of top manager appointments since Hodgson's appointment? Can only think of Rodgers but that came too close to the Harry sacking, I doubt Rodgers wouldn't have know that Harry was on the edge of his job as it was all in the papers by then. Or was it Hodgson ;-)
The only other thing I can think of is that the person lined up has changed his mind for whatever reason.
