Conte gone from Spuds

Just announced on the radio this evening. I think it was the most inevetable thing to happen this week.

I hope he got a payout from them but knowing how tightfisted Levy is, Conte would have to break open the safe himself.

I would imagine he will end up in Italy now.

...or by mutual consent depending on who you believe.

Either way, he's gone which is a bugger for us. Under Conte, they were too inconsistent but they've got a good squaf and a very decent first team.

The fight for fourth just intensified.

Merged the threads...Bill's was first.

Thanks Zip, you are a gent, and there's only two of us left.

By the way, Conte going was as sure as uova are uova.

Isn't uova an egg?

Isn't uova an egg?

It's an English saying Hughie "as sure as eggs are eggs", meaning a certainty.

[HughieG]

We'll I'll be damned; thanks for clearing that up.

I apologize for my poor English skills, I'll be walking on eggshells from now on.

It's an uova way of saying it...

It looks like they are not planning on bringing a new manager in before the season is over.

That is puzzling to me; why not bring in a quality manager and try to ensure ending fourth? If Spurs don't end up in the Champions League, Harry Kane will be thinking about his next career step.

Surely no Top manager will want to work for Levy anymore so many have tried and left.
