So what you can spend on players will be strictly on revenues and incomes rather than big cash injections from owners.

He has always worked hard for the team and quietly done his best. The team's status has been raised. Please do not underestimate his hard work. To the small minority who always disparage Tottenham with negative words and actions, who are foolish and try to manipulate internal conflict, the calm Tottenham fans must stand firm and show the fans that they are with the team.
