Dissecting AVBs Depature From Tottenham on 'Mutual Consent'

I am of the red persuasion when it comes to matters soccer in the north of London. Naturally, I should be over the moon with the news coming out of the white corner. Andre Villas Boas has been shown the door. No telling the imprints of Tottenham Hotspurs chairman David Levy’s boot(s) on his backside. Mutual consent is cited in the press release by the London club. 

I wonder why they bother to put that in there: Mutual consent. As if, so late in the day, there is a contrary alternative. Besides, the familiar cry of vultures explained the moving shadows over AVB’s head in last night’s presser. Five nil to Liverpool at White Hart Lane, and you and I knew too well of the aroma wafting in from the kitchen clouding  the press box. It was not the whiff of burgers and fries meant to feed the angry hungry lot at White Hart Lane that Sunday evening; AVB’s goose had been cooked.
