Was he offered a deal in February?
No idea, no one seems to know.Thelonious said:
Not sure why Levy would bother though as the £10m buyout clause was already in his previous contract?....
Precisely - 5% of £35m would be a very nice little bonus for doing fuck all other than spread rumours in the pressMadchef said:
Good riddance to the greedy cunt.
It's always been Harrys thing to have a percentage of player sales (his Monaco money was his percentage of Crouch's sale), this is why he's always so active in the transfer market. Buy 'em get them playing well and then sell them on (££), buy more. Squeeze a good season out of them, sell again. This is why there is no long-term strategy from Harry, he just keeps the revolving door going making himself rich regardless of the effect it has on the club.

That only works for a small club that are happy to be a player trading vehicle, from what I can see that doesn't fit with Levy's vision for the club at all.
Can't see why any club would want to give that kind of a condition (percentage of player sales), unless they were desperate to land the manager. It creates an incentive for perverse behaviour by the manager, especially if you're looking to actually build and improve the club.
Maybe the club is a selling club. Maybe the club is from the coast and is financially a mess, anyway. It seems obvious that there must be owners/chairmen who see their clubs as making money when they bring in huge transfer fees, not when they sell out their season tickets (or get performance bonuses from playing in Europe). Harry's in that racket along with the rest. A horse trader. A middleman.docomospur said:
Not, in other words, someone with an iota of vision. And for Spurs to challenge for the title, they must get that vision thing.

It's interesting that his whole court case revolved around whether or not he was getting gift payments, rather than payments due to his by his contract following players sales.
Yet here we are, if what the OP says is true, reading that he wanted a deal with a player sales cut. LOL
