    Turned the business side of things completely around at Tottenham, laying a lot of the ground work that ENIC have been able to build on.

    Was never afraid to back his managers with transfer funds, just a pity he was such a bad judge of managers! Appears he grills his Apprentice candidates more thoroughly than the likes of Francis and Gross.

    True he turned things around but he wasn't the saviour some would have us believe. Could have handled the Venables situtation better and kept Venables at the club as manager.
