Tottenham resolve bitter spat with club legend over his new book… but will still REFUSE to stock it in club shop

TOTTENHAM have made peace with club legend David Pleat following a spat over his new autobiography.

The former Spurs boss, 79, was unhappy at discovering that Tottenham would not stock the book, Just One More Goal, in their club shop and has criticised chairman Daniel Levy in several interviews this month.

Tottenham are understood to have held talks with Pleat in recent weeks, however, and offered to host an event at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to promote the book.

This would be held in the run-up to Christmas as fans look to buy stocking stuffers.

Tottenham are standing firm on not selling the book at their megastore.

This is because they only stock titles that are produced by the club’s official publisher so they can vet their contents.

Hugo Lloris has run into the same problem with his book Earning My Spurs, which will be published in November.

Tottenham will not sell the book for the same reason despite being aimed at the club’s supporters.

Pleat had two spells as Tottenham manager, including two as caretaker boss.

He still worked at the club up until the end of last season as a scout.

He claimed that Levy dismissed him earlier this year with the words, “it’s all data driven now, we don’t need eyes and ears,” an explaination he described as “nonsense.”

During his time in charge of Tottenham, he was unable to lead the club to a trophy.

However, Pleat did guide the club to an FA Cup final in 1987 but they were beaten by Coventry City.

He also had spells in charge of Luton Town, Leicester City, Sheffield Wednesday and Nuneaton Borough.

During his playing career, he started at Nottingham Forest before moving to the Hatters and then Shrewsbury Town.

He hung up his boots in 1971 after playing for Exeter City and Peterborough United.
