Advice for Spurs fans attending the upcoming derby games at The Emirates

29/11/2018

We’ve taken part in the usual discussions with the police and both Clubs ahead of the upcoming Premier League and Carabao Cup games against Arsenal at The Emirates Stadium.
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.

THST report and comment on Tottenham Hotspur Ltd accounts 2016-17

5/4/2018

Tottenham Hotspur have posted their accounts for the 2016-17 financial year, which covers the period for the football season of the same period. We provided our analysis for the 2015-16 season which raised a number of questions, many of which have subsequently been addressed either through clarification directly from the club or other information coming to light.

Our analysis of the previous set of accounts remains apposite in terms of highlighting key elements of the structure of the club’s finances, however in light of our concern over pricing of season tickets at the new stadium we have decided to take a different tack with the 2016-17 accounts. Our interest is in seeing the extent to which the 2016-17 accounts can be used to predict the future financial position of the club and the extent to which new season ticket pricing is dictated by the demands of servicing the debt incurred to fund the new stadium – as the club insists is the case.

Report of THST meeting with the Spurs Board - 20 February 2018

26/2/2018

This is a report of the meeting held between the Boards of THFC and THST on Tuesday 20 February. In line with normal practice, both sides have agreed this is an accurate representation of discussions.

This is a long read, with an accompanying document setting out in detail the proposals THST made on concessionary pricing. Please take the time to read both documents carefully before raising any questions. We will be holding a members meeting on 12 March, please keep an eye on your inboxes and our website for details, at which issues arising from this report can be discussed. In the meantime, we’ll do our best to answer any questions you have within the constraints of our available time as volunteers.

Spurs away tickets - Loyalty point summary

Season Ticket pricing at Wembley - THST comment

2/5/2017

Season Ticket prices for Tottenham Hotspur’s year at Wembley Stadium have been announced today by the Club. THST has been discussing pricing for our year at Wembley with THFC for some time. So now we want to set out clearly what we lobbied for, and make our position clear on what has been announced.

We are pleased that fans will once again not be facing real increases in the price of their Season Tickets, and that top-line prices are lower than this year. Our minimum objective was ticket price parity and that has been achieved and, in most cases, exceeded. However, we have mixed feelings about the overall packages on offer and would have expected the pricing to have been more in line with the proposals we submitted last month.

In brief, the headline developments are:

• No Season Ticket seat at Wembley will cost more than the equivalent price at White Hart Lane, accounting for the loss of two cup games. The majority will cost less
• Every Season Ticket holder will have the choice to move into a seat at the price point they prefer, starting at £695
• Up to 18,000 new Season Tickets will be opened up to the waiting list giving Bronze members the opportunity to start their Season Ticket life this summer
• Concessions for Juniors and Seniors will apply throughout the stadium

However, once the loss of two cup games, extra travel costs for many fans, and the more expensive facilities at Wembley are factored in, any reduction in the cost of attending a match for the majority of General Admission fans is negligible. We would have liked the Club to have gone further.

However, our dialogue with the Club has resulted in some significant concessions being secured from the original proposals we were presented with, demonstrating the value of those discussions.

Let’s look at the key points in more detail.
