On today’s show, we’re digging into the story that’s dominated Spurs Twitter this week. Tottenham believed they had met the £60 million release clause for Morgan Gibbs-White, only for Nottingham Forest and their owner, Evangelos Marianakis, to block the move.

Was the clause actually triggered? Did Forest act in bad faith? And where does this leave Spurs, a club trying to make serious moves in the market, when even clear contractual agreements seem to be up for interpretation?

To help make sense of it all, I’m joined by Greg from Forest Focus, who knows the inner workings of Nottingham Forest better than most. We’ll talk about Marianakis’s decision to reject the deal, how Forest fans view his leadership, and whether there’s any fear that his strong-arm tactics could one day damage the club’s Premier League status.

We’ll also discuss Morgan Gibbs-White himself, what kind of player Spurs were trying to sign, whether he wanted the move, and if he should have taken it further by involving the PFA.
