Ex-Spurs Player Oliver Skipp

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Tonight will be the weirdest on pitch unveiling!!

I reckon he comes out with the Spurs team for the warm up, then whips his top off to reveal a Leicester kit underneath!

Hopefully if he's left anything in London, we can bring it up on the coach for him!!

Probably best way to do it. Spurs fans get to say goodbye and the Leicester fans can welcome him
 
Gets a fair bit of stick but you've got to be really good player (in comparison to your average footballer) to make 100 appearance for your boyhood club after coming through the ranks.

Good luck Skippy. Go and smash it

It's not stick he got but years of frustration.

Stick is for the likes of the still here Lo Celso and the biggest waste of space Ndombele.

Either way, now consigned to history.
 
Best of luck to the guy. He gave everything out there and is Spurs through and through.

But it's time for us both to move on. Spurs need better. And he needs to play.

It's a great deal for us both.
 
I wonder at what point the manager had the discussion with Skippy that it was best for him if he moved on. Did that come before pre-season started? Or was it worked out during/after pre-season when it became clear we had better/younger/cheaper options available to us now.
I don't think Ange will sell him. Likely Skippy knows he needs to play and be assured of game time, which Ange really couldn't promise him.

I'm glad he chose to leave in order to play. He deserves even more respect now.
