You're probably right. Stubborn. But he has to walk soon. If we win a trophy just have a vibe he might think of calling it a day.

Ah okay.
No not for me. I don’t feel it’s enough of a return for some of the things that have happened over his tenure. I accept no team (or supporter) has a god given right to trophies or success but we have been expected to accept a lot of shit over the years. Transfer window activity at zero two consecutive windows. Selling of assets such as Bale and Kane and replacements not up to par.
Sure the ground was a mission for ENIC and is fantastic but the promise of it ensuring we can compete on a level with the top teams has been a myth.
Some of the most expensive season tickets in Europe. I could go on but those are just some of the reasons why it isn’t “fair enough” for me.
All the player's salaries are estimates unless the player, agent, or club, provide disclosure we don't know for sure what any player earns. The thing we do know is Levy is driving down the wage bill by investing in younger players, that behaviour could mean there's issues with wages that need to be addressed.I'm afraid Capology is just as bad as other similar sites. According to Capology Eric Dier is earning less at Bayern than he was at Spurs.
Also according to Capology , Richarlison has not had a pay rise in basic pay since 2018-19 season.
And if you look at the current wages of our squad on Capology , Archie Gray is earning exactly the same wage , £75,000 per week as seasoned international player Bentancur, which hardly seems likely.
No club releases the wage bill of it's first team squad but every club does release a total wage bill for all employees at their club , these are all available in accounts submitted to HMRC and Companies House so are pretty accurate unless you are Abramovitch.
In the last accounts Spurs wage bill was £221.9 million but what percentage of that goes to the first team squad nobody knows . That 42% wage/revenue figure often bandied around is correct but applies to the whole workforce at Spurs not what the first team squad is getting compared to other squads but clubs like Man U & Liverpool etc are paying higher than Spurs.
The only pay packet you can accurately measure is Levy's , he was paid £3,728,000 in the last accounts, total directors wage bill was £5,068,000 so that leaves £1,340,000 for the other directors.
