Cost of sacking Ange Postecoglou revealed with Tottenham forced to pay out millions on top of £2m Europa League bonus

THE cost for Tottenham to sack Ange Postecoglou has been revealed. The Aussie boss made good on his promise that he "always wins things" in his second season by lifting the Europa League trophy to end the club's 17-year trophy drought. 3 3 3 However, a 17th-place finish in the Premier League backed up by 22 defeats - the most ever by a team not to be relegated - means Postecoglou is in a perilous position over his job. Should chairman Daniel Levy opt to give Big Ange the boot, the decision will see the 59-year-old manager take home a compensation package worth around £4million. And according to The Telegraph, that is ON TOP of the £2m bonus Postecoglou collected for winning the Europa League and getting the north London club into the Champions League next season. Postecoglou has two years remaining on his Spurs contract, with the terms of his exit being decided before he signed his contract to take him to the capital from Celtic. The report adds that the manager has now returned from holiday and should be receiving clarity over his future in the near future. He appeared to hint he wanted to stay at Tottenham's trophy parade after he declared: "All the best TV series, season three is better than season two." However, that decision will come down to Levy. While sacking Postecoglou will take around £4m on its own, the total cost of then appointing a replacement could see Spurs splash out roughly £10m. Brentford 's Thomas Frank is understood to be among the leading candidates for the position, along with Fulham boss Marco Silva. While there is the headache over the future of the first-team coach, behind the scenes the club are also going through a major shake-up. Levy has lost his right-hand woman in executive director Donna Cullen, who has left after 20 years of service. Elsewhere, Ryan Mason has also left the club to further his managerial career by taking up the vacant position at Championship side West Brom. They are set to be the first two of many departures this summer, which may include Postecoglou. The shake-up also includes the appointment of Vinai Venkatesham as CEO, who previously served bitter rivals Arsenal in the same role. Telegraph sources add that the moves could be the prelude to majority owners Enic pumping fresh funds into the club. Tottenham ratings: Bissouma dominates Europa League final as occasion gets to Udogie BRENNAN JOHNSON was Tottenham's hero as they finally ended their 17-year trophy drought in the Europa League final. Despite being without James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski for the clash in Bilbao, Spurs came up with a massive win against Manchester United. Johnson scored the goal as he helped bundle in from a corner in a tussle with Luke Shaw to send fans into dreamland. But Spurs also owe a huge thanks to Yves Bissouma who was totally dominant in midfield. At the other end, Destiny Udogie struggled to get up to the pace of the match as he was up against Manchester United's Amad Diallo. Spurs had just three shots, only 27 per cent of the ball, and completed a mere 115 passes over 90 minutes. But it didn't matter, as United never really looked like finding a leveller to take it to extra time.

Victims of rape can challenge CPS if case dropped under new review scheme

Rape and sexual assault victims who have their criminal cases dropped can now request for their cases to be reviewed as part of a pilot scheme. Launching on Friday in the West Midlands, the six-month trial will give victims the right to request that their case be reviewed by a different prosecutor, as part of reforms under Labour's pledge to halve violence against women and girls. The changes come after a woman successfully sued the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) after her rape case was dropped on the eve of her trial, after the defence suggested she was suffering from the rare condition 'sexsomnia'. Jade Blue McCrossen-Nethercott said she was 'profoundly failed and let down' when her case was dropped, and described the new review scheme as a 'crucial safeguard'. She had contacted police in 2017 after waking up and feeling she had been raped while she slept. But the charges were dropped days before the trial three years later, because lawyers for the accused claimed Ms McCrossen-Nethercott had 'sexsomnia', a medically recognised but rare sleep disorder which causes a person to engage in sexual acts while asleep. The CPS later admitted it was wrong to close the case, saying it should have been taken to trial, and last year apologised and agreed to pay her £35,000 in damages. Ms McCrossen-Nethercott said she was 'hugely excited' about the new pilot, saying: 'This pilot is a crucial safeguard – one that could have completely changed the outcome in my case, and so many others like it. 'I was profoundly failed and let down by how my case was handled, but I've since seen people within the CPS who are genuinely working to make it better.' While current procedures allow rape and serious sexual assault victims to request their cases are reviewed, if that case has already been stopped in court by prosecutors it cannot be re-started no matter the outcome of the review. Siobhan Blake, CPS lead for rape and Chief Crown Prosecutor of CPS West Midlands said: "We know for rape victims, the prospect of their case being stopped can be absolutely devastating. "Although they can request a review of our decision-making now, if we have already stopped the case in court, there is nothing that can be done to reactivate the case if that review comes to a different conclusion. In those circumstances, we offer an apology, but appreciate that for a victim, an apology rarely goes far enough or feels like a just outcome. "This pilot offers greater reassurance for victims. It means that they will be alerted to the prospect of their case being stopped earlier, so that they can ask for a review by a different prosecutor. If the original decision is reversed, then the case will continue, but even if it can't, we hope that victims will have more confidence in the process and the earlier scrutiny of our decision-making. "Rape cases are incredibly complex and sensitive. We have specially trained prosecutors who do an excellent job building strong cases. This pilot offers an earlier check and balance, which provides extra reassurance for victims."
