Club says “There are no changes to the ownership or shareholder structure of the Club”
Levy and family own 29.88% of the share capital of ENIC which owns 86.91% of Spurs"
For the time being. Everyone knows the Qatari's have been sniffing around us for the last 18 months. We'll have to wait and see but given what we know and what has been going on, it won't surprise me in the slightest.
Strange timing though, he did an interview with Gary Neville on the Overlap recently and didn't sound like a man who was about to leave. Wonder if he has actually stepped down though, I saw a rumour a while ago that Joe Lewis' daughter doesn't like him so i wonder if he was pushed.

sounds like he was pushed from what I've been told/seen tonight.
Looks to me as though Joe Lewis is looking to sell up and Levy was in the way .. Spurs, new stadium, top quality training facility, improving team, who knows what the club is worth .. should be an interesting time over the next few weeks dahn White Hart Lane
He has also done quite a lot of good things for the club over the last 25 years.
Levy is no where near as bad as Mike Ashley trying to run the show at Newcastle.
I'd agree with that. As a shareholder, you'd have to say he's run the club brilliantly. The infrastructure is second to none, 'the brand' (aka #thebrand on my whatsapp group when we note another commercial partner sign up) has gone from strength to strength and puts us up there in the top 10 richest clubs in Europe, which given the lack of regular Champions League football is bonkers when you think about it.
As a supporter, I could write a 10,000 word dissertation on why the little on field success was in spite of him not because of him. For the love of god, if he had his way, we would have been playing in Stratford at that absolute sh*thole. People seem to forget that.

To be fair, you wouldn't have been playing at the Olympic Stadium. It would have been rebuilt completely as a proper football stadium, with no running track.

But still nowhere near Tottenham……..and that’s the biggest and only point.

I also don't get the narrative that i've seen written in some places that Levy transformed Spurs. It's not like Spurs have risen up the leagues like Brentford, Brighton and Bournemouth under his management, in my lifetime they have always been a big club.
In the 80s they won cups, regularly finished top 4 in the league, in the early 90s they had Lineker and Gascoigne playing for them and in the 2 years before Levy took over, Spurs won the league cup and competed in Europe.
Yes they've got a much nicer stadium, training facilities and are worth more than before he took over, but that applies to many clubs over the past 25 years. The football boom in this country because of the Premier league and post-Euro 96, means literally every single PL club is worth far more these days. Spurs are not worth more because of what Levy did, they're worth more just because they're in the PL. Look at United under the Glazers, they've done absolutely fuck all for the club and the club is worth about 3 billion more than when they bought it.

I think the Glaziers have done and continue to do a wonderful job at Man Utd. Long may it continue and hopefully when they do sell they use the money to buy Chelsea and repeat their work.
Newcastle closing in on new No 9 Nick Woltemade, for a club record fee. For such a big fee I was expecting a prolific scorer in Germany, instead this is someone who scored 12 league goals last season, and 2 the previous one.
He was top scorer with 6 in the U21 Euros. Scored in total 23 in 40 appearances last season and had been used previously as a "10". Bayern wanted him as the long term replacement for Kane. 6' 6'' and not exceptionally quick but has very good feet.

2 expressions of interest in buying Spurs rejected by Joe Lewis , club isn't for sale.

Relegation to the Conference South please...
Bizarre that events over 10 years ago are only now being investigated and charged,
My best guess at the connection is that it has 2 syllables like Brentford.
