The Executive Board of Tottenham Hotspur Football Club has today announced it will not be cutting staff pay or using the Government's furlough scheme. It has agreed to meet the objectives we set out in our statement of 10 April.
It takes maturity and humility to reverse such a contentious and public decision and we’re pleased that, rather than doubling down, the Club’s Board has listened to the fans on this occasion and ultimately done the right thing. As we said in our statement, no organisation is going to get everything right in these unprecedented circumstances and the eventual outcome is what matters.
We’re delighted for the Club’s non-playing staff and we thank the Club’s Directors for finding an alternative way forward. This is the first step, but a big step, in restoring relations between fans and the Club.
We should now focus on the range of other measures the Club is delivering to help the NHS combat the COVID-19 pandemic; measures that can go a long way to making us proud of our Club once more.
Difficult days are ahead but, with everyone playing their part, we can come through the many challenges we are all facing.
Stay home, stay safe, support the NHS.
