Hi There are a lot of alternatives here. 1. Spurs have cooked this up over some time. a. With us knowing: I think that this is most likely as Bates is a hard sod and Wise is after all Poyets mate. As someone said it would be hard for Wise to do much but congratulate him. But then why the strange announcements to the press? Either someone not in the loop or that we didnot know. b. We did not know. Hard to believe Levi and Poyet would be that daft. Mind you the Levis and Batess of this world find communicating difficult. Putting it mildly I wonder what our Ken thinks of my brethren after 2 Levis and one Abramowitch. 2. This all boiled up over the last few days. Very hard to believe that this multi-million and publicity saturated deal would go through without thinking it through. And then plan it without tapping up the people involved. See if they agree. Taking into account that the rumours were flying on Wednesday this seems incredible.
Whatever the answer someone has mishandled it. I think that the way that Bates reacts will be indicative. If it was tentatively sewn up there will be a quite monetary agreement. If not expect screams of all kinds in order to up the compensation. I wonder if the 15 points moan will come up? [tapping up managers is permitted but arguments with Income Tax are not] Never a dull moment. I hope that we slaughter Millwall.
