Surely, given the connections of the Trust and the obvious realities of this situation, they might be able to locate some investment and present a cohesive and coherent offer for the football side of the business, rather than do the same pointless bitching and moaning. Far too often they conflate wider football issues with specific Tottenham issues, and it dilutes the effectiveness of what they say. Rocking up at Tottenham to protest about how away fans should only pay £30, when the majority of the home fans pay a lot more than that is frankly one daft thing they do, which definitely distracts from the real question of what is the company’s objective now and in the long term and what is the objective of the football club?
In no universe do the Tavistock group sell all their property assets; the stadium, the training ground, the surrounding infrastructure/property until they have drained that swamp. So the only logical approach I think is to find a way convince them to sell (or part sell) the football side of the business to some entity that has a different objective to making money from property off the back of a football club, even if it is the ego of someone like Everton’s owner that is at least something other than this continuing messy horizon.
The football club is essentially an anchor tenant of the stadium and main user of the training centre, “we” don’t own anything, so why pretend? While the club is a small part of a massive entity like Tavistock it will go nowhere. So take the club away from them.
Really, honestly the Trust must offer something other than another sit down mug off session. It is time to show them what they like to see, money, money that might make them move their arses at least. If Woolwich have people like Henry’s chum sniffing around them, why not Tottenham….
