Premiership: Spurs must face music after Graham sacking

John Barnwell, chief executive of the League Managers Association, has confirmed that Tottenham are to be brought before a Premier League arbitration panel over the sacking of former boss George Graham.

Graham is seeking around £1.5million compensation for his dismissal by Spurs in March over an alleged breach of contract but having received no response to an ultimatum he issued to ENIC, the club’s new owners, called in the LMA.
