Not so much from a file marked, “You Couldn’t Make It Up”, rather just mentioned in passing in a statement from the Tottenham Hostpur Supporters Trust I read this morning.
Getting thrashed at the Etihad wasn’t very nice. Getting thrashed by Liverpool at home was another flavour of not nice. And then it is has been suggested, quite believably, that after that game, André was interrogated by Levy, as to why Adebayor wasn’t getting a game.
Q. How could have AVB’s position have possibly been made any more untenable?
A. Read this:
Quite clearly, much work has been done to clear the site for the intended new stadium and the Sainsbury’s superstore and new technical college were erected very quickly. However, it is our view that no actual work has started in respect of beginning the build for the new stadium.
As yet, the Club have not successfully secured a naming rights deal, which is absolutely fundamental to financing the stadium, although we do understand that the Club hosted several potential sponsors at the recent Liverpool home match on 15th December.
My sincere apologies if you were already aware of this. I wasn’t.
Part of me finds it hilarious. Part of me wants to assume a fetal position under my kitchen table and weep.
