Speculation continues over Jol's position despite their 2-0 Carling Cup win over Middlesbrough last night.

And the manager insists Spurs would be making a big mistake if they sacked him.

"The fans know how difficult it is if they change manager again," he said.

"I hope people are realistic - you can get anyone in the world to come, but to do better you must finish fourth."

Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has denied reports that he and Jol had agreed a £4million compensation package.

Jol continued: "The speculation isn't a nice position to be in, but I can't do anything about it.

"The continuity is important - we were fifth two years in a row, I don't think anybody else could do any better.

"The continuity of the club is important and we did that here with my staff over the last couple of years.

"We won a lot of points, had nine wins in Europe and got back into Europe via the league, which didn't happen for 25 years or so. So the fans appreciate my work and that is a good feeling."

Meanwhile, Spurs have revised plans for a new £30m training ground in Bull's Cross after ditching their original proposals.

Spurs were refused planning permission for the original application by Enfield Council - even though it had been approved by the Mayor - and were due to face a planning inquiry in November.

But the first proposal has now been scrapped and a completely new application will go before the council's planning panel on 11 October.

However, Enfield Society spokesman Colin Pointer said: "We are planning to oppose it. Although there are some minor improvements, it's still a monstrous intrusion into the rural area."
