Complaining. It's a chance to get a few free shots at Spurs/Levy, highlight their under-handed behaviour and expose them for the ...... hypocrites that they are. You honestly expect him to be quiet when he's been handed a golden opportunity to let rip and stir things up? It's not as if Spurs have landed anyone of significance.
And you can bet your bottom dollar he spoke with the legal team before throwing out such strong accusations straight at the club and Levy in particular. One would think that squeaky clean Spurs/Levy will surely sue for slander and libel ......
After all they'd never be involved with tapping ...
Quote:
Tottenham have been branded as hypocrites over their decision to report Manchester United and Liverpool for allegedly tapping up their strikers.
The accusation comes from Spanish club Sevilla, who are angry about the circumstances leading up to manager Juande Ramos’ move to Spurs.
Senior White Hart Lane officials, including secretary John Alexander, were photographed last August at the same Spanish hotel as Ramos when he was still Sevilla manager, and Martin Jol was Tottenham coach.
The embarrassing revelation of contact between Tottenham and Ramos prompted a crisis at both clubs, and effectively left Jol a lame duck until he was finally sacked at the end of October.
Tottenham’s pursuit of Ramos enraged Sevilla president Jose Maria Del Nido, who was incredulous last month when Spurs chairman Daniel Levy lodged official complaints about the conduct of United and Liverpool in relation to their public pursuit of Dimitar Berbatov and Robbie Keane, respectively. Del Nido had previously accused Tottenham of treachery, and yesterday he stepped up his attack.
“I think it is hypocrisy personified that Spurs are complaining about things they themselves have done,” Del Nido said.
