Tottenham Hotspur confirms Northumberland Development Project

After shuffling many managers over the early 2000s, Spurs were fifth two years running under Martin Jol, but his replacement following a secret visit to Spain to recruit Seville boss Juande Ramos ended in temporary success with a League Cup win in 2008, but the team slipped in the league and a poor start in 2008-09 saw Ramos sacked and Harry Redknapp brought in as Spurs returned to a traditional “manager” role with no Director of Football.

Today, the club has again slipped behind the top three or four clubs in the Premiership, but need to re-establish themselves at the very top of the English game before trying to make inroads into Europe and World football.  Investment in players must be made to do this, but the figures involved in these days is astronomical compared to those of the humble beginnings of the club over 100 years before.  The heritage of the Double winners have always left a shadow over subsequent teams, managers and players, but having gone 38 years without a League championship, we can only hope that things work out and we see one in our lifetime.
