    Why would you want a manager who doesn’t want to be here? He done a great job here but he still done the dirty on us so thanks and cheerio.

    You wonder if Ange will be glad he's traded us for Spurs, playing against the elite, the huge stadiums, the big money, big players etc, or will he miss the passion, the draw of our club and the adulation from our fans.

    I suppose from our perspective it looks like more of a cold business decision than anything else for him going to Spurs.

    Yeah but he knew at the time that the Spurs opportunity wasn’t just newspaper speculation. Yet he was happy to give off the impression to the supporters that that’s all it was

    He's officially agreed terms, mate. We're just waiting for Spurs themselves to rubber stamp it. Hopefuly that's because Lawwell's playing chicken with them and making them pay through the nose.

    I genuinely didn't get that impression. Thought he just meant this dance of them asking questions and him refusing to answer.

    Looks like he wasn’t happy with the 2 years offered and got the third year with an extension …. Also give an inkling that it’s wasn’t that much greater than the offer he had from Celtic

    That interaction is so, so typical of English football fans.

    It’s weird that it’s even entertained. In any other walk of life, you would rightly be called out as a bit of a simpleton if you were critical of something (while making a judgement on how poor it is) that you admitted to never actually taking the time to watch.

    “I hate pizza, it’s *”

    “oh you’ve tried a few of them then?”

    “had one from Lidl 10 years ago and didn’t like it. * food.”

    3 years with a 4th year option so if it goes pete tong he’s only guaranteed a 3 year payoff not the full 4 years

    They have added extra year than what was originally reported this might have been the snag that they have overcome thought it was a bit poor they only offered 2 years at first can only imagine ange would have felt the same
