How much more is he paid? Go have a look at what Liverpool, Woolwich, Man Utd etc pay to their directors. It's really not much different. Being more doesn't mean chasms of difference.
I don't disagree with you - but if the alternative is that he is paid less but keeps more time to make money doing other things and the club has to hire a new director to do what he would otherwise do - then I don't really see the difference.
Let Greaves change and then he can comment!isnt it Queens english
Levy actually owns nothing of ENIC - his shares only become live if the club is sold.
What do enic do other than Spurs theses days?
I thought all their other business went bust or sold on leaving the companies in a mess. Honest question .
Coming Darling.Let Greaves change and then he can comment!
But in the mean time he's the chairman and then when the club is sold he gets his share of the money. Is it me, or is that really no different?
But Levy is the highest earning executive in the market within which our club operates (the Premier League) according to the article that started this thread. Unless he's led us to a bunch of titles I don't remember, he's overpaid even in the absurd world of professional football.
Oh fucking hell. To all intents and purposes, Joe Lewis owns Tottenham Hotspur and hold the purse strings.
But Liverpool, Man Utd and Woolwich generally tend to achieve better results on the pitch, dont they.
The innocence and naivity of youth .
Your steadfast unyielding support of the multi billionaire Mr Lewis , young Anthony
Is in a bizarre way rather charming .

Well, I'm glad you finally got round to justifying your assertion
But Spurs presumably use actual accountants too, and they presumably aren't drinking at the time they prepare the accounts and use the concept of amortisation. Add in Shawry's views, amongst others, who are knowledgeable on the subject, and I'm quite happy to stick to my view that amortisation is a perfectly acceptable/respectable accounting term.
Mate if you re-read my post I agreed with you on the respectability of the term. At no point did I disagree with you.
He's allowed to do other things than work exclusively for Enic...
Not really - if the club isn't sold before he leaves he's never paid out, and at the same time won't be paid dividends.
Read into it want you will - but unless Levy can create a club worth selling for a big profit for Lewis then he won't get his real pay day.
I understand what you are getting at. But how fucked up is the world of football when getting 2.17 million (or whatever it was) last year isn't considered a real payday?
Compared to his 25% payout of Lewis' reported price of £1bn it is
You're weird.
I support a team, not a boardroom. Couldn't really give a fuck about who owns the club or for the most part how its run. Apart from the bits that directly affect me, like ticket prices and wether i'll be able to get a season ticket in the new ground. Caring about backroom shit is for boring people with agendas like you. Life is short mate. Stop spending it worrying about Joe Lewis.
Fair enough Ran, no probs. I guess I got a bit disconcerted by the word 'bollocks'.
I have a lot of people on here having a go at me, so I tend to be a bit sensitive.
Do you have a link to something which publically discloses that? The only info I can find is the declaration that he and his family are "potential beneficiaries of a discretionary trust which ultimately owns 29.4% of the share capital of ENIC International Limited", which is as clear as mud regarding what the discretion involved actually is.
That restriction makes a great deal of sense, and explains both his pay as a director, and his approach to the club.
That wasn't my question although I can't see anything else... The question was was bar Spurs does enic do?
