GENGI KRÓNUNNAR OG TOTTENHAM SVIPAÐ

From our Icelandic friends, comparing Tottenham to the Icelandic krona, which as you will be aware has been in spectacular free-fall for a few weeks now.

We weren't sure at first what the graph signified - or the headline, come to that - so we asked our number-crunchers and chart-mongers to explain.

Note from NumberCruncher: the scale on the left is Tottenham's position in the league, the scale on the right is the value of the krona against a basket of currencies.

Note from ChartMonger: this appears to be one of those charts where up is down, and down is up; maybe best viewed standing on your head.
