Remember when the youth teams were getting tonked on 13:40 - Nov 24 with 2322 views | Esox_Lucius | Very encouraging to read but I guarantee it won't be enough, it never will be, to satiate those morons who look for every opportunity to slag off the club and especially Les Ferdinand. IMO, since Ruben came in as co-chairman and restructured the club set up to what it is now, the club hasn't been this well run since the Jim Gregory days. | ![](/images/avatars/9990.gif) |

Plenty of bits about the Rs. I was interested to read that a 1st year pro at Spurs was on about £32k/£33k a year. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Remember when the youth teams were getting tonked on 22:17 - Nov 26 with 1892 views | simmo | "But it was Ramsey's approach to matches that caused the most consternation. Defensive tactics were considered counter-productive. If an opposing team, for example, had a devastating left-winger, Ramsey would pointedly not protect the right-back by bringing in support from another player to double-man the threat. He wanted his right-back to be exposed. He wanted his right-back to evolve." Furlong v Sanchez. Wouldn't you know it the result was negative in that match but the lessons learned for Furlong was part of what has developed him into the most accomplished academy product in years. Great article and the people that slag Ramsey really need to focus on what he's doing for us behind the scenes. We're very lucky to have him | ![](/images/avatars/1322.gif) |
