What’s the difference , they both turned out to be dickheads who fucked the club over to further their own ends. Kane can go wherever he wants once the suitors match the clubs valuation, not throw a wobbly because he can’t get his own way.

You fat slag
I blame Kane for this
got room for one more that table?
Kane isn't and has never been Tottenham through and through. If some fans finally realise this then they would act a little differently I think.
Kane has genuine ambition. We don't. It really is as simple as that. We have a chairman who clearly hasn't got a clue. We've just appointed a sacked manager that made a good Wolves side look woeful in his final season, and was only appointed out of complete and utter desperation, and are also left scrambling around in the transfer market for players other big teams don't want.
I can only think Levy has photo's of Son that he doesn't want out in public for him to sign up for longer to endure this absolute shower.

Agreed, but it would be pretty short sighted to just assume that the trajectory would only continue upwards, and Levy has long since been reputed for being tight with wages/transfer funds so lack of sufficient backing shouldn't have been a bolt from the blue either.
Point remains, he hasn't a leg to stand on even with his tales of a gentleman's agreement, City either pay up or piss off, we are under no obligation to make this as easy for them and him as possible, and right now it doesn't even seem like there has been a bid, let alone one rejected.
I also think a point that has been lost in all the furore, how shitty is it of him to not even have the decency to show up and speak to the new Manager in person? As far as I can tell we have not hassled him whilst he was focusing on bottling another final, nor whilst he was having his r&r in the Bahamas (paid for by his wages from THFC I should imagine) and during that time I'm sure Paratici, Nuno and Levy would all have been itching to talk to him and sort the situation out.
Instead he waits until now to just not turn up with no heads up.
(All as has currently been reported, there may be more to the story that we are as yet unaware of)
All this "I wish him future success" talk we hear....
.......How many of these people get a warm glow inside when Kyle Walker picks up his latest human rights abuse infused trophy?
"Ah, but he's not 'one of our own'" they may protest.....
In which case that shit ought to mean something afterall then..... A more respectful level of conduct and so forth.

Again, I've not once said he's doing the right thing by not turning up for training.
But keeping him isn't an option any longer, in my opinion. Too much damage has been done already.
He was supposed to show up for his covid test and preliminary medical checks before starting fitness work tomorrow. But he hasn’t showed up at all.
He wants to be top PL goal scorer, he can’t afford to take a year out on top of the inevitable injury breaks he’ll continue to have. Wherever he is next year, he’ll want 20 PL goals.
I think the general feeling was that he isn't the type to sulk and not give 100% effort, but then again I wouldn't have thought he was the type to bunk off training either.
Like I've already said, contracts mean little in football these days. That's just how it is. It helps us in regards to negotiating a better price for him but little else. At no point when he signed that contract did I automatically think that's it, he's staying with us for a further 6 years regardless of what we do or don't do as a club. And neither should anyone else have.
Can't put the tweet up, as useless putting pictures up.

City have yet to offer an "insane amount of money" and if reports are to be believed; aren't prepared to do so.
He's AT his peak.... Why would City want an over the hill striker when they can afford anyone they want?
Worked out fine with Modric.
Then we KEEP him and continue with our rebuild on OUR terms.
Well clearly a lot of people were wrong. As I've said already, he's not and has never been Mr. Spurs. All this "Harry Kane, he's one of our own" has only ever been nonsense. If he stayed with us for his entire career it would have been because we actually showed ambition, and won things. Not because of his love for the club. The truth is you'll be hard to find a more unambitious club around.

Levy’s own words on Berba’s departure back in 2008:
“I don't think Berbatov treated this club with the respect that we honestly deserved. We put him on the map.
“I think he's an outstanding player, but he signed a long-term contract with this club and I think he should have stayed.
“I had so many conversations with him. He kept saying it was about his ambition to play for Manchester United. It wasn't a money issue. We offered him a new contract and he wasn't even interested in discussing it.
“The reality is, in modern football, the players have all the power.”

No, mostly they don't come to an end because the selling club would rather get a fee for a player than have him walk for a free when his contract has ended. In reality, a contract in football is mostly a bargaining chip for transfer fees. Players could take a chance on shorter term deals, but then it's less financial security for them, as nobody can predict if they will get a career-changing injury in the next game.
Kane wants his move, but 3 years left means City have to pay stupid money.
If the shine wasn’t off with the Neville interview, or his brother’s clumsy bullshit at the wedding, it needs to be now. It’s time to take off the hero-tinted glasses. “One of our own”—shows you how much that means to him.
