You realize this was Lewis (our owner) telling Levy to shut up and fucking accept the performance bonuses he has been denying himself for the last couple of years right?So our players, who are also performing at a higher rate than their own peers, at the likes of Woolwich and Chelsea, should also be compensated as such, yeah? ...Its the players on the pitch that have elevated us to champions league status. Facilitating the club profits that allow Levy to pay himself more than his counterparts at United and Liverpool and the rest of the Premier League.
Levy does not earn 6 million every year from Spurs. It was a one time payment consisting of various bonuses and pay raises that he has declined himself in order to shift more money towards player salaries and the stadium build.
