I'm putting 2 + 2 + 2 together but may be getting 7!!
I think the wage bill has had to be chopped and the minimal amount of new faces in to save cash. The cahill deal didn't go through because - allegedly - we wouldn't stump up the extra 2 mill that Bolton wanted.
Levy must be getting to the point where he realises the Olympic stadium is a no-go irrespective of what the judicial review comes up with. Spurs didn't meet the criteria and thats all there is to it.
Modric is already out player and an integral part of the team, the fact that he's worth £40m+ is irrelevant. Its no good us having a sparkly new stadium if we're in the Championship, hence not selling our best players.
This all just my opinion but Levy and, probably more importantly, those above him know full well we need a bigger stadium to be able to raise our pay structure. In turn we'll be able to attract better players. No point paying through the nose for ok players in the meantime.
I believe we need a bigger stadium more desperately than getting into the CL next season. Maybe they're thinking the same and decided they might as well just get on with it.

Sad maybe, but at least its realistic. With the strength of the competition I believe any...

Sad maybe, but at least its realistic.

With the strength of the competition I believe anything more would be a very good season.

I'm still confident we will see some amazing football matches regardless of final positions.

COYS!

i like to think we have enough gas in the tank to stay away from the bottom but i dont hold out much hope off finishing higher than 8th this term.

Im sure we will start picking up points soon i think arry will deff leave at the end of season to take up the england job and i hope levy as been working hard on finding a replacement.

But im just thinking that if we dont start picking up points soon arry will be leaving alot sooner than he thought.

We are all dissapointed about our transfer activity but constantly moaning about it will not change anything lets make the most of what we do have and get behind the team C.O.Y.S

I agree with the stadium plan...

Yet the Arse have a fantastic stadium but seem to be going backwards...

I do believe that since the PL, especially since Roman came and now Citeh's billions, it's just going to spiral...who's going to be the next big takeover?

I am genuinely concerned about some of these teams if the big money pulls out...or how many clubs will go bust in the meantime trying to compete.

I think in Levy we've got a guy who has stood by his word, has a business head, can bring in a player like VdV on good terms, and a manager in HR who can bring stability.

I sort of disagree with the WHL revamp - would prefer Levy swallow his pride and just agree to keep the bloody running track in the OS and move in the fall of '12.

I'm not buying the whole argument of people will not show up because the view will be terrible with a running track. There are plenty of stadiums out there that operate as football stadiums that have running tracks. Look at 'Estádio Olímpico João Havelange' in Brazil - the view doesn't look all that bad.

Sure the view from the top of the Olympic stadiums end caps might be bad but you can always heavily discount those seats or close the area of.

Add in the superior transportation links and the attractiveness of the venue and you open up opportunities in the off-season for other events i.e. revenue generation.

Seems like a no-brainer to me. Get a stadium as quick as we can to keep the momentum going.
