Isnt alot of the negative spin on Scholer, Sugar peddled propaganda though?
At the end of the day, he was Chairman through a decade of actual acheivement, where as Sugar likes to talk about saving Tottenham...yet what did he actually do?
Re-negotiated the terms of a 10M pound debt with Midland Bank -
By 1991 it (Spurs) owed £10.5m to Midland Bank (now part of HSBC), a debt which reportedly made the bank transfer the account from the Smithfield branch to its casualty unit in Cannon Street and demand a series of changes including a new chairman and the sale of its then best player Paul Gascoigne. - Financial News
Sugar tries to live off signing Klinsmann (who fucking hated him), and stabilising the club financially (which he did to be fair) yet look at the managers he appointed. He was the chairman that took us into the dark ages on the pitch, and while we couldnt exactly splash the cash in those days, we didnt have to flirt with relegation every season either.
How would that have panned out for his hero status..
