Advice for Spurs fans heading to West Ham this weekend

The Club has moved quickly to fill the managerial vacancy. Jose Mourinho is now the manager of Tottenham Hotspur and we hope this will bring the success we all want.

THST statement on Mauricio Pochettino

11/19/2019

We’re shocked and saddened to hear our Club has sacked Mauricio Pochettino and his coaching staff. During his time at Spurs, Poch gave us many of our best moments as supporters, made Tottenham Hotspur a force to be reckoned with again, and forged a strong link with the fans. We will never forget the joy he brought us.

Red Star fans at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium

10/23/2019

Following the Champions League home game against Red Star Belgrade on Tuesday evening, we’ve had lots of questions asking about the presence of away fans in the ground. Representatives of the Trust were in touch with Club officials during the match and have followed up subsequently. We think it’s helpful to set the information we’ve been given out clearly to both Trust members and the wider Spurs fan base.

Driving to Tottenham on Match Days

10/22/2019

Along with many other match attenders, we noticed a paragraph in the email sent out by Spurs to ticket holders ahead of the Watford game referring to "reports of unauthorised match day car parks operating in the stadium area". It went on to say that "the Council and the Police have set up a task force group that are looking to close such sites down and fans using them have received penalty charge notices as a result." We've investigated further on behalf of members.

THST meeting with THFC catering team

10/18/2019

Trust Board member Rachel Martin met with George Robertson and Levi Harris from the Club to share feedback from the most recent THST catering survey, featuring your comments from the home matches against Inter Milan, Aston Villa and Newcastle.
Broadly speaking, supporters expressed great satisfaction with the range of food on offer. There was also appreciation of the effort to meet various dietary requirements. Pricing for food and drink, the portion size for food and speed of food service is also rated highly.
It’s clear that some lessons have been learned from last season.

Report from the Trust meeting with the Spurs Board on 8 October 2019

10/14/2019

On the evening of Tuesday 8 October 2019, representatives of the Trust Board met with representatives of the Spurs Executive Board and senior Club staff for a scheduled 'Board to Board' meeting. The following notes from the session have been signed off by both the Trust and the Club.

THFC debt restructuring analysis by THST

10/4/2019

On 20 September, the Club announced that it had completed the refinancing of the bridging loans provided by three banks in 2017 to finance the new stadium build. The announcement was accompanied by an interview with Daniel Levy in the Financial Times (paywall). The existing debt of £637m was repayable in 2022. As the Club would be unable to repay this amount from current cash flows it was facing a financial cliff edge with the clock ticking (to coin a phrase). The refinancing is, therefore, good news and the publicised terms are better than we anticipated in our earlier analysis of the Club’s financials.

THST advice for Olympiacos away - 18 September 2019

9/15/2019

We’re aware the official advice for fans travelling to support Spurs at Olympiacos next week is quite onerous. We have been talking to the Club about the advice and arrangements for the trip, so we thought it was worth sharing some of that conversation. We’ve also consulted other supporter groups with experience of travelling to Athens.

THST Members' Event: Who will think of the fans?

9/1/2019

We're delighted to welcome Kevin Miles, CEO of the Football Supporters' Association, to our Autumn members' event. Kev has represented the interests of football fans nationally and internationally to key stakeholders including the FA, Premier League, UEFA and FIFA for over two decades, having previously worked in journalism and broadcasting.

We've spoken with the Metropolitan Police's Dedicated Football Officers (DFO's) for Arsenal and Spurs, and with THFC's Supporter Services and Safety teams ahead of our visit to the Emirates on Sunday. To follow are some points we think visiting fans should be aware of so please take a couple of minutes to read and share with fellow match-attenders.
This is a Category C IR game.
