 THST condemns as insulting and utterly inadequate the €20,000 fine imposed on Barcelona by UEFA as a result of events at our Champions League tie at the Nou Camp in December 2018. We are pleased our Club has also said it considers the response inadequate.

Both games are Category C-IR matches, with police wearing level 2 uniform with baseball caps, as is normal for a derby. There will be 30 Spurs stewards present at Sunday's league game, increasing to 45 for the Cup match on 19 December, clearly identifiable in yellow tabards. Both games have sold out.  Many supporters have contacted us about the restricted bag policy now being implemented at Wembley Stadium, expressing concerns that it could, in many cases, prevent them from attending games. We have been talking to THFC and Wembley National Stadium Limited (WNSL) in order to voice supporter concerns and explore practical solutions.  Updates on:

The match will be a Category C game. The police have said they will be taking a “proportionate” approach during the day, and will be present inside and outside the stadium. A team of 20 x THFC stewards will also be present, working into colleagues at WHUFC, to help travelling fans with wayfinding and customer service.  On 16 November THST reps Martin Cloake, Kevin Fitzgerald and Katrina Law attended a meeting at Stamford Bridge along with officials from both clubs, the Metropolitan police, British Transport Police, local council and reps from the Chelsea Supporters' Trust to discuss the game this weekend.

Tottenham Hotspur Football Club Board to Board Meeting Minutes and Report Tuesday 24 May 2016 Tottenham Hotspur Football & Athletic Co Ltd, Lilywhite House, 6pm  When Spurs played at Borussia Dortmund’s Signal Iguna Park this season, a significant number of our fans were caught up in congestion outside the ground, and were assaulted by both police and stewards.
Members of THST who were on the scene immediately contacted senior THFC officials, and we witnessed the scenes that unfolded, including the use of pepper spray on fans by police. We were also able to provide some advice and assistance to fans on the scene. Immediately after the game, THFC arranged for THST reps to meet BVB’s head of security so that first-hand accounts of what had happened could be given directly to the host club by fans. After the game, THST put out a call for fans to send in personal accounts of their experiences. Over 60 did. These accounts were compiled and sent, with a covering letter, to THFC, BVB and UEFA. As a result of that submission, and a complaint from THFC about the use of pepper spray on our fans, changes were implemented by BVB, matchday stewards and the police for future games.  Regular visitors to Chelsea FC will be aware of the repeated difficulties experienced by travelling Spurs fans entering Stamford Bridge in time for kick off. This was particularly poor last season, when 1000 of our 3000 allocation were still outside the ground for up to 20 minutes of the first half. We are really keen to ensure this doesn't happen on Monday evening and, having met with representatives of CFC this week, would strongly urge Spurs fans to arrive at Stamford Gate no later than 7-7.15pm in order to be inside for the start of the match.
