Well, that was money well spent. On June 4 last year it was revealed Tottenham took out a £175million Government loan at a very competitive rate to help cope with the pandemic.
Now we know what some of it has been spent on: sacking Jose Mourinho. With compensation in the region of £16m due, that is roughly 10 per cent of the Bank of England's money going towards dismissing a manager six days before Tottenham's first major cup final in six years.
Oh, and against the backdrop of a duplicitous betrayal of the English game, of which Tottenham are a significant part.
