Couldn't agree more mate.

Depends how many foreign fans sign up for memberships. They get pure millions directly from sponsors for pre seasons abroad
I suspect the club feel that the limited potential of local money on matchdays and merch is massively outweighed by the potential from international involvement.
Unfortunatley I reckon they are right. Locally it's going to be a struggle to get kids of West Ham, or Goon families to come to the dark side. Whereas the unadulterated masses on the other side of the globe will be much more beneficial to the club.
It's not like we struggle to sell out every game anyway, so the matchday revenue is not as high a priority as increasing brand awareness globally.
Several 1st team friendlies locally is never coming back. I have resigned myself to supporting a team whose owners couldn't give a damn about me other than the £ I put in their pocket. If you want to watch the best football available, then I don't think you have much choice but to accept reality.

About £159 per ticket for standing.
Stop giving Levy ideas FFS!
They'll probably add a date when it sells out?Pearl Jam tickets purchased.

Did you see the amount of South Koreans at the Wolves game. Literally hundreds all sat together
You can guarantee they will be spending in the club shop. If we had built that hotel they would be in there as well.
Only one problem . They tend to follow players , rather than clubs. Apparently there are 12m Spurs fans in S Korea. If and when Sonny leaves they will be off somewhere else.
We need to scout another S Korean, plus a Japanese player for good measure .
That’s why we don’t go to Orient any more. Mores the pity really but if we want top players we have to get the money from wherever we can.

Unlikely. They're playing in Berlin three days later and are rumoured to headline Glastonbury which would be the day before or after London.
Anti commercial stance ? nearly 200 quid a ticket, wouldn't like to see the price if they were just in it for the money
.
100%
you can't be anything else if your out of Bethnal green
Fucking hell, and that's rear standing.Pearl Jam tickets purchased.

Mate asked me if I wanted to go, and I said, nah it will probably be about £70 standing. I was a bit off there
You never hear them on adverts, but the wider band are also factors, did say Eddie not Pearl Jam.Anti commercial stance ? nearly 200 quid a ticket, wouldn't like to see the price if they were just in it for the money
When their second album came out, Vedder insisted on touring in a Van (covered in their documentary), Stone Gossard said of it “we’re not Fugazi”, as it made everything super difficult as he rebelled against their fame.
Think some of it was a rebound as Eddie was cut deep by Cobain saying “they aren’t an indie/underground band” as they went straight to a major label. However, as one on that scene, Pearl Jam tickets were much cheaper than Nirvana in 91/92 (And they had been Green River, Mother Love Bone prior to becoming Pearl Jam).
Anyway, agree it’s way OTT pricing.

I bought Ten club tickets a few days ago.
Yep, it was expensive... but my favourite band playing at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium? I'm never not going to go to that.
I'm going with my best mate who unfortunately is a Gooner. I love the idea that he's topping up our transfer budget with every pint he drinks.
I also want to see Ange duetting with Eddie Vedder on Betterman...
10%-20% will stay post Son.
I wonder how far away the Premiere League is from playing games abroad. Within 5 years is my guess.
I detest 'em.

Not sure how you can put a figure on it, but agree there's a chance some will be bitten.
It's Guess but conservative guess imo
Okay a day earlier
All jokes aside, that F1 thing looks ace. Definitely gonna give it a go.
I’m not buying the extra gear for it though so fuck you Daniel!
