Bag policy at Wembley

23/11/2018

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.

Remembering Jonathan Waite

19/11/2018

When Trust Joint-Chair, Darren Alexander, passed away suddenly in March 2014, it was Jonathan Waite who wrote the Club’s obituary. It was Jonathan Waite who hung the ‘Can’t Smile Without You’ flag at the Benfica match in his memory. And it was Jonathan Waite who let the Trust into White Hart Lane early to lay flowers at his seat. Jonathan’s kindness, empathy and support at that difficult time was a measure of his character. It’s incomprehensible that, four and a half years on, we’re now writing this for Jonathan.

THST comment on transfer window

9/8/2018

THFC’s inability to make any improvements during the summer transfer window to a squad that is so close to achieving great things has dismayed many fans.

As a Supporters’ Trust, it is not our job to involve ourselves in on-field matters. But we have a responsibility to voice the concerns of our fans about the Club’s ambition and strategy on the pitch. And to ask for a full and believable explanation of how this transfer window has played out.

Ugo Ehiogu

21/4/2017

Along with the rest of the football community, we were shocked and saddened to hear that Ugo Ehiogu had passed away earlier this morning at the age of 44. Our deepest condolences go to his family, friends and colleagues.

Ugo had a distinguished playing career before joining the staff of Tottenham Hotspur as Under-23's coach and will be remembered by Spurs fans for the work he did developing youth players in an academy that has done so much to create the current sense of togetherness and pride at the Club.

Our thoughts are with all concerned at this very sad time.

Members meeting Q&A with THFC head of ticketing

20/11/2016

With ticketing at Spurs such a hot topic, we were delighted to secure the most senior ticketing executive at THFC – Ian Murphy (IM) - as a guest speaker for our latest Members’ Meeting. This took place on Tuesday evening, 15 November, in the function room of the William Blake pub on Old Street. Around 50 Trust members took the opportunity to question Ian on ticketing specifics in person with several others sending questions in advance on email.

THFC’s Head of Supporter Services, Jonathan Waite (JW), was also on hand to respond to any broader, customer service questions.

The meeting was chaired by Trust co-chair Martin Cloake (MC) with fellow co-chair Kat Law (KL) explaining the Trust position on several issues during the discussions.

It was a lively event and we’ve tried to include as much detail as possible in this report.

Gillingham Cup Pricing

1/9/2016

For the past three seasons, tickets for domestic home Cup games at White Hart Lane have been priced extremely competitively, with every match hosted at Tottenham last season charging just £10 for seniors and £5 for juniors in all areas of the ground. The FA Cup third round tie against Leicester City last January, for example, saw adults charged £20 for their seats.

Matchday atmosphere a major plus for Spurs fans

22/7/2016

Spurs fans are largely satisfied with the match day atmosphere at White Hart Lane, and like the efforts made to boost visual displays of support with flags and banners. And there’s still very strong support for a safe standing area in the Club's new stadium.
The latest Tottenham Hotspur Supporters' Trust (THST) end-of-season survey, completed by more than 1,600 fans across June & July, shows that 70% were satisfied with the match-day atmosphere at White Hart Lane last term.

Survey finds high ticket prices and late fixture changes are prime concerns for fans

21/7/2016

Ticket prices for home games are still too high according to an overwhelming majority of fans surveyed by the Tottenham Hotspur Supporters’ Trust. And, while the £30 away ticket price cap was widely welcomed, fans indicated late changes to fixture dates and kick off times were a major source of irritation, and the major influence on deciding whether to watch their team away.

THST statement on Club ticketing policy for 2016/17 season

31/5/2016

THFC today announced its ticketing policy for One Hotspur members for the 2016/17 campaign. THST has been involved in detailed discussion for some time with the Club about ticketing during the final season at White Hart Lane, one we all know will be challenging.
We’ve consistently argued for solutions that are as fair as possible, and that benefit the broadest range of fans. And we’re pleased that the Club has listened to what we’ve said. We’d like to briefly set out the positions we’ve argued, and our views on what’s been decided.
