This too often gets overlooked when we talk about wages:

Kane is supposed to earn £150k per week as a result of them!

Only area that someone has brought up before where this impacts negatively is when a player is injured and they don't get to pick up all of their bonuses (presumably appearances and clean sheet or some such). Although it wouldn't surprise me one bit that some of the bonuses will be team performance driven and not just individually applied, another reason maybe when you see the squad that has great harmony e.g. with each position in the league carry's a bonus earned throughout the entire squad, same for how far we get in a cup competition etc...

If I remember correctly each first team player earned a 100 000 pound bonus for reaching the knockout stages of the CL minimum. Even if they didn't clock a single minute of CL football.
 
DL said no player will be sold without Poch's agreement. So Toby cannot agree contract with DL and Poch does not want him sold it become an impasse. Something would have to give and I expect it would be Poch backing DL to sell.
 
I thought this was an interesting point & good new for those of us that had LOTS of LPs as a Bronze member)

2.13 KL asked for clarification of the mechanism for allocating FA Cup semi-final or final tickets this season given the influx of new Season Ticket holders. There would be roughly 32,000 tickets for a SF and 28,000 for a Final and potentially large numbers of new Season ticket holders on the same points total.
IM felt that the points awarded throughout the season would have helped separate out the new Season Ticket holders but that the deciding factor would be the number of bronze points held on upgrading to a season ticket should there be a large number all on the same number of points.
THST agreed with this as they felt no new Season Ticket holder should be worse off this season than there were as a bronze member last season. So those bronze members who qualified for tickets through their points totals last year should qualify again this season, in principle.
 
And

DL thought it was likely they would request to play the first few matches of the 2018-19 season away from home. This had always been the case.

3.3 DL confirmed there was no possibility of opening the stadium at a reduced capacity.
SF reassured that any rumours to the contrary on social media had been clarified and corrected.
 
MG asked for an update on naming rights. Many had been expecting an announcement now the stadium was progressing.
DL explained that the stadium financing was not conditional on selling naming rights. THFC are in discussions but they will only contract when they are satisfied with the price, the tenure and the counterparty.
DMC assured that the number required for commercials was in the business plan and the stadium financing meant it was not an essential for the stadium to open
Until such a time that a partner is found, the stadium will be referred to as Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
 
THST asked that the South Stand be prices accessibly if the club wanted atmosphere not to price it 'up' just because it will be popular.

There will be no 'dropping' of blocks wholesale as was done at Wembley.
 
DL said that assisted by their advisers, Rothschilds, the club was considering all available options.

We are being advised by the Illuminati. We can't lose.
 
Chris Cowlin had better watch himself...

7.4 Vlogging – KL shared some of the negative feedback from general admission fans who’d been positioned next to vloggers at matches. Particularly away matches. There needed to be a recognition of the impact on those sat next to the vloggers.
KL suggested moving them to the Press area may be an idea.
SF felt that was a place of work and wouldn’t be appropriate for a vlogger.
KL felt it was more appropriate than disturbing the experience of fans who’ve paid to watch their team.
DMC asked that SF contact the vloggers to pass on the feedback and explain the impact on fellow supporters. ACTION: SF to speak with Vloggers

This is all very well and good, but the noises coming out of the club were Poch gave Levy his blessing to sell Walker - and he was a key player for us.

Can see the same spin with Toby in the summer. "Sold with Poch's blessing"...

If Poch says the player can go the player can go. Simple

Kane?

Would definitely be the biggest dilemma. But eventually one of them would have to give.

It is pretty obvious that Poch rules with an iron fist dressed in a silk glove. Any neigh sayer or player that doesn't commit fully to his idea or cause is phased out and moved on.

He obviously sees a greater value in having a player that commits fully that he can shape and form over having a player around that will not do that.

This is very astute business by Levy et al - if you'll recall, Woolwich got bent over a barrel somewhat by Emirates regarding their naming rights as they basically needed the money to finish the build.

The more cards that Levy holds (including being willing to go into next season with no deal done yet) then the better for the amount of money we'll be bringing in.

I bet Daniel loves Chris Cowlin though - his videos catch out builders having a cheeky fag/phone break when they're not supposed to.
:levyeyes:
 
I like the sound of this in principle:

"IM explained that the ticket exchange would be operational next season, along with a ticket transfer scheme for home games – called TicketShare. This would allow a ticket holder to forward an eticket to a fellow fan within their network should they not be able to make a game. It would offer a secure way to pass on a ticket. THFC to provide more detail on this ticket transfer tool shortly"
