Ha. What with all the manufactured, over produced, auto-tuned & fakeness in pop music. We would all be hoodwinked, she would end up fighting either a baby bull, man in a bull costume or a bullfrog.

Once again, nothing about the subject.

You are so fearful of dipping your toe into a response about the facts presented to you I can smell it on you. You know anything you say will prove me right and expose you as an idiot that spoke so suredly about a subject he knew nothing about.

I didn't need to tag anyone to help my cause, BF3 posted what he posted on his own. It just so happened, his fact, figures and sources entirely aligned with what I was saying.

You need to make it something it isn't to massage that ego.

Here, I'll get us back on topic...

''A London NFL team will bring in more revenue than any Premier League team, but especially Tottenham.

This is unlikely, in fact Tottenham is likely to generate more money than any potential London NFL franchise, especially in the first 10 years a team would be in London establishing a true local fan base and not just "NFL fans" of other teams. Fell free to read more here and here. For Spurs financial data, here.

The average NFL team made £355m in 2018. It's important to break that revenue down, however. About £216m of that is shared revenue (mostly TV money). The remaining income will be from "local" sources, which is a nice way of saying team controlled revenue. Given the assumed local (European) fanbase is around 6m in 2020 (source), and assuming they all instantly become London fans overnight, they are very comparable to the Philadelphia Eagles (metro area 6.1m), who made £378m last year.

Spurs in 2017/18 made £381m. Spurs are projected to make £450-500m in the new stadium.

Also, FYI, the cost of including the retractable pitch was likely somewhere in the £50-100m range, with the NFL chipping in £10m . It seems worth the investment given the NFL contract alone will likely bring in £40m (we made £4m this past week) , not to mention all the other events the club can host since we aren't destroying the pitch to host them.''

Every opinion in this passage is backed up by source material and financial reporting.

Considering this is a DIRECT response to your claim that a London NFL franchise ''100%'' will bring in more revenue than Spurs.

We've both offered our opinions of one another. Now back to the debate. You have said you disagree with the above but have offered no evidence to counter the evidence given to you.

Would you like to do that?

I'm guessing...ermmm...no. Go ahead, make your excuses.

Proven right again.

John nowhere to be seen.

Forever the wimp.

P.s. You can always tell if I've got the better of the debate if the only likes a post opposing my view gathers is from a certain clique. Always the need to reassure. Not a single post isn't given the old gee up.

Good unicorn theory but the NFL play a maximum 11 home games a season which simply isn't going to suddenly become 25 ... that 11 games isn't going to change because players are physically limited to that number of games, not to mention their multi-million pound contracts .... you can create impossible scenarios all day long but the reality is very clear. Why are you trying to change it, just to prove a point?

The volume of games very obviously does have a bearing on who the primary tenant is, 2 million fans versus 600k not hard to see why ... also there's the small matter of ownership, the football club owns the ground ...

If you want a unicorn theory why not go with the NFL buying the ground and kicking Spurs out ... that's 500m a year of income throw away, makes about as much sense as your crazy thinking ....

That's all John, Hood and fluffer have.

Unicorn theories.

Not content with moaning at stuff that has happened. They moan about stuff that hasn't.

How miserable do you have to be to concoct fantasies to wet the bed and slag off the club?

Then they call themselves proper supporters.

Until such time that the stadium gets sold, Tottenham Hotspur Football Club will be the owner and primary resident of the stadium. Football will be the primary purpose of the stadium. It can be the 'home' of multiple sports teams. It can be the 'home' of the Dalai Lama for all I care. But unless THFC are liquidated, or relocated to the moon, the stadium will first-and-foremost be the home of my club. Those are facts.

Stop making up shite to support your failing argument.

Considering I wasted 10 valuable minutes of my life answering your question in the Poch Out thread tonight, can you return the favour and tell who are the people that want ENIC out but are fuming that they might sell?
I know you spend more time on here than me, but it's just that I haven't seen any, mate?

How so?
You demand answers after you dodge questions for weeks.

You conceded that only City and Liverpool have a better squad in the end.
I asked you how Poch hasn’t been backed if he has the 3rd best squad in the PL and you ran.

You demand answers for flippant comments and funnies, yet you can’t defend your genuine belief system.

If you think that there is nobody who hates ENIC yet still uses them “fattening up the club to sell it” as a stick to beat them with, you’re simply lying to yourself.
There isn’t a single posts where someone said
“I HATE ENIC AND AM FUMING THEY WILL SELL”.

But there is a sentiment that has built up for years and you are one of those that push it.

That’s my answer, because I stand for every post I make, and answer people.
So don’t come back in an hour and say “can you show me the post blah blah blah”

Read this post. I’ve answered you.

Although todays Premier League rules are not yesterday's or tomorrows.
They change at the whim of the Premier league chairmen who enforce and create them.
Weren't the rules amended, or ignored, to allow us to continue playing our home games at Wembley last season.
Weren't they relaxed to allow AFC Bournmouth into the league with an inadequate stadium.
Like I said, caution and scepticism is the best way forward.
Blind faith is a recipe for disaster.
