Sensible Chairman:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2...-league-future (Gold and Sullivan take note)
Quote:
The chairman [Levy] has, however, moved to quell expectations and called for fans to be "realistic" about the prospects of the club remaining at football's top table in the long term, claiming only Manchester United and Chelsea are assured of a place in the league's top four every season.
Levy also said the Champions League is "not a gold mine" and pointed out that the £15m Spurs will make from competing in the group stages is merely the equivalent of a transfer fee for one player.

He is correct about it not being a gold mine, people come out with stupid statements about how much is made from Champions League football. He is also right to point out the difficulty of qualification and right not to spend as if top 4 will happen every year.
