    Ramos snubs huge Spurs offer

    Seville coach Juande Ramos says he rejected a "dizzying" offer to take over from Martin Jol at Tottenham.

    Jol's future was in doubt after Spurs lost their first two games of the season before beating Derby.

    Spurs were reported to have met the Ramos camp over the weekend before telling Jol his job was safe providing he delivered Champions League football.

    "They made an excellent, dizzying offer, but I'm under contract and my decision is to fulfil it," said Ramos.

    "There was not the slightest possibility that I would accept it because I'm under contract. It did not interest me or the club.

    "I wasn't in a meeting with anyone, what happened was that I met with a person and that person went on to meet other people who were surely Tottenham."

    More to follow.

    Balague said the other day that Ramos has been told by Capello that Chelsea want him (Ramos) should Mourinho leave.

    After writing that sentence my head is now spinning.
    .
    Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



    May the Lord bless this post.

          Balague said he's got 'friends' or contacts at Chelsea. I dare say people within football do talk to each other about things, especially if they wanted to get a message through to someone.

          Having said that, it may of course be complete b*ll*cks.

            He should hold out and wait for a top 4 job. He deserves a shot at a "big club" that can actually have a chance at winning the league

              Ramos 'snubbed huge Spurs offer'


              Sevilla coach Juande Ramos says he rejected a "dizzying" offer to take over from Martin Jol at Tottenham.

              Jol's future as manager was in doubt after Spurs lost their first two games of the season before beating Derby.

              "They made an excellent, dizzying offer, but I'm under contract and my decision is to fulfil it," said Ramos.

              But Spurs have denied making any offer and said: "No individual was or has been offered the position while that position has been held by Martin Jol."

              Spurs were reported to have met the Ramos camp over the weekend before telling Jol his job was safe providing he delivered Champions League football.

              "There was not the slightest possibility that I would accept it because I'm under contract. It did not interest me or the club," added Ramos.

              "I wasn't in a meeting with anyone, what happened was that I met with a person and that person went on to meet other people who were surely Tottenham."

              Ramos is regarded as one of the most promising coaches in European football after guiding Sevilla to back-to-back Uefa Cups.

              Sevilla beat Spurs on the way to their success in last season's Uefa Cup, while Ramos also led his side to third in La Liga and victory in the Copa del Rey - Spain's top domestic cup competition.

              The Andalucian club are now primed to qualify for the group stages of this season's Champions League after a 2-0 win over AEK Athens in the first leg of their third round qualifier.

              Ramos has already won the club's first trophy of this season after a 6-3 win on aggregate over league champions Real Madrid.

              He said: "We are in the middle of a great project with Sevilla and there is still work to do."

              Meanwhile, Jol has led Spurs to a fifth place in the Premier League in the past two campaigns, while going out in the last eight in the FA Cup to Chelsea and Sevilla in the Uefa Cup last season.

                  Yup, that is why i put "big" like this. Real and Barca would be deemed as the biggest clubs in Spain.

                  He has done a fantastic job
