The Great Sugar Debate It is a familiar scene at all home games at White Hart Lane, Alan sugar's Rolls Royce parked at the VIP garage for all to see. A sign of a success story. So how come we are not seeing any of that money being poured in to re-establish Spurs as a European power. Before we sharpen the knives for the kill( and mine is right next me), lets give credit where its due. Alan Sugar has been good for Spurs. He has turned around a club which was on the brink of financial collapse into a profitable entity and has ensured that the club's coffers is fat enough to ensure that we can afford to get knocked out in early rounds of cup competitions. In the early 90's Irving Scholar's mismanagement was there for all to see. He nearly ran the club aground with the Football League threatening to to take drastic action if irregularities were not corrected. I remember being petrified when I was Sec 2 with the threat to relegate Spurs and couldn't then comprehend why. Well in stepped the Sugar Daddy with his fortunate made in electronics and rescued Tottenham Hotspur FC PLC .Those with longer memories than most are still grateful. Which is why though I will continue to scream for Sugar's blood from time to time on this site, publicly at least I will not ask for his head. He deserves that much I feel. But how long can we continue with his tight fisted reign. No very long I feel .George Graham has said he will be satisfied with a top ten finish. Bloody Gooner.Again this lack of ambition is frustating.It clearly demonstrates a lack of drive and foresight from the chairman himself. Alan Sugar has to sit down and think what he wants from this season. Should by some chance he decides to go results and success then the cash should be coughed up. If not then well ....I give up. Come on Sugar we still remember how swooped to prise Juergen Klinsmann...more of that and (excuse the pun) the season ahead may not be as sour as the previous ones
