I like many supporters hope that Thomas Frank stays.
Michael Kayode's permanent signing and Kelleher's imminent signing shows Brentford's intentions for 2025/26.
Thomas stay and see the Bees into Europe.
COYB's.

Agree, though I can the attraction of Spurs if he is offered it. But would Kelleher be signing if he thought Thomas was on his way out?

I’m a little concerned at the apparent policy of only signing players with names that begin with a ‘K’ this summer. Somewhat limiting, I feel, but might explain the silence around Donovan…..

Multiple meetings between spurs and TF apparently

Will be a bigger loss than any player

trust MB and PG will already have a replacement manager in mind

or perhaps a bumper uplift to TFs contract!

I think TF is unlikely either to move for money or stay for it.

The club has backed Thomas in terms of transfers and continues to do so, but compared to the finances of a club like Spurs he's practically fighting with one hand tied behind his back and still looking like Muhammed Ali in comparison.

I think we'd all hate him to go to them, not because he doesn't deserve it, but because they're in that bracket of clubs that turns wine to water on such a regular basis.

Nuno, Conte, and Postecoglu. All deemed to have "failed" in some regard.

Sadly, this one has legs I fear.

A number of changes in the hierarchy at Spurs announced today. Anyone's guess how this might affect things regarding Ange and possible replacements

The flipside of this is that TF would probably be humbly confident in his ability to get Spurs’ squad to win the PL. That would elevate him into the very top tier of managers.
 

Thomas Frank

Swap Benham for Levy - not a chance .
Thomas will leave sometime but not to work
at any toxic club of which Spurs & Man U immediately come to mind. He is too clever and seems to like having a happy life rather than everything being about how much he can earn.
That’s not saying me would just turn down a better salary elsewhere but I believe he would also consider other things ie Spurs fan would turn against him after a couple of defeats or Ratcliffe would expect him to bring his own lunch

Indeed, high risk/high reward etc!

Hard to not be seduced by the dream that you could be the manager to finally make it a success. If he goes I hope he does well, but it could easily crash his career for a few years if it all goes Pete Tong. I keep thinking of the start he had with us o_O

I don't want to even think about Thomas leaving ... I'm still grieving at the thought of losing Bryan & Yoane .. I think if Thomas left too I would be a mess for the whole summer ?

I do that regularly every day - not only wine but beer, water, whisky, brandy, etc.

we're not allowed to talk about it yet , but I reckon if Tom did leave his replacement is already here .I just read the piece of when he joined in 2022 , pretty impressive CV

Sadly I can't see it happening but if we were to keep TF, BM and YW with players returning from injury plus MK, and perhaps another midfielder, we could well be challenging for top 6.
Still, who knows, Bournemouth still managed to have a good season after losing 2 key players.

We aren’t keeping BM, it’s a done deal, just depends where he goes not if.

Wissa will have one more year here.

TF is a tough one to read. Spurs are obviously sniffing and Fab and co claiming talks have happened. I think that’s Bollo because surely they would get rid of the first one before discussing targets and tactics with a new one.

Not if the new one is already on the staff at BFC. Which I expect he is

I think you misread me. I said I can’t believe spurs are in discussions with TF about player targets before they have even sacked their old manager. Fabs tweets are saying stuff like, Spurs are discussing potential targets/tactics with TF “in case” Ange is sacked. As if spurs don’t know if he will be sacked or not as if it will be some kind of accident when it happens, and they have spoken to Tom just in case

It’s just ‘rumour fog’ just so that the originator has always the get-out when it turns out not to be the case!
 

Thomas Frank

Lot of talk already that he has talks with spuds.
Can’t see him entertaining talks why they already have a manager in place.
Just don’t seem something Thomas would do seems to have more integrity than that.
As always refuses to talk about future signings if they already employed.

Just trying to get the jump on us for the next Johnson or Gray they can gazump us on by seeing who TF would like. I’m not sure it’s info TF would share tbh.

I agree - that is the best manager interview I have ever seen.
He speaks so well and can string words together unlike most managers and players.
The thought and planning that he brings to our club is so impressive.
Hope he stays with us for many years to come.
I have recommended my son and daughter to watch the interview.

It does seem a bit like bad form but as the song goes.. " money talks, so who knows.

More utter tripe. It just keeps coming. I can only assume people keep posting this kind of **** for attention. Well, it's got mine, but not for the right reason. Is it really 'of interest' when it's made up? It's coming in on both TF threads now.

A website called 'givemesport.com'

More like 'givemestrength.com'

They will not be flush with cash until they have cleared the debt accrued building their new stadium.

Spurs were great in the 1960's. Crap now. Why would he want to even contemplate going there.
 

Thomas Frank

Maybe TF is leading Spurs down the garden path, by telling them about his recommended Summer transfer targets, so they won’t go after the players we are genuinely interested in this window… :ROFLMAO:

Thinking about Johnson and Gray in previous transfer windows :rolleyes:

If spurs actually offered him the job he’ll take it and I wouldn’t blame him either…CL, 60k home ground, doesn’t have to move house, massive wage increase, fresh challenge etc etc etc….its too good a thing for him to turn down imho ?

But...Levy.

Thomas himself has re-iterated many times that MB is the best owner in the world.
