QIA are the ones that own PSG. They also own Harrods, are the largest shareholders in Sainsbury's and own shares in loads of massive businesses around the world. The PSG thing alone is a good reason to stay clear as two clubs with the same owners can't both enter the European competitions. Then there's the fact that they're from Qatar.

BlackRock is one of the biggest asset management companies in the world. They sponsor some NFL awards I see, so they have some ties with sports.

Blackstone is the world's fifth-largest private equity firm by committed capital, focusing primarily on leveraged buyouts of more mature companies. In other words: They're all about making massive profits.

Hopefully it's just about stadium financing and not a takeover because I don't like the looks of the 1st and 3rd option.

Thanks however I'm well aware who they all are, more don't know what the ITK means.

They are all essentially asset strippers

Oil-rich Qataris are asset strippers? They're possibly morally dubious and in some cases resemble real-life Bond villains more than anything else (what with their connections to ISIS and the slave labour issues), but I'd hardly call them asset strippers.

I thought we had found them some premises to move into. No. 500..somewhere, cant remember the street/road name

500 White Hart Lane.

I think the old buildings were demolished, but last I looked on Googlemaps the site was clear, nothing had been built. They need something to move into relatively soon so this may be no longer practical.

It would be a bit odd that after the CPO process and the fire they have done nothing to look for a new premises and that even after a final resolution were just beginning their search now. A bit to sympathy seeking, me thinks.

Levy looks like a Bond villain, but he definitely doesn't act like one (although if he did, he'd be the crappiest Bond villain ever, imo: forget the volcano island base, he'd rent some shack in Caracas as his evil lair to save on costs). Overall, don't really know if a fundamentally decent bloke with generally mediocre designs and plans for the club is better than a super-rich morally dubious sheikh from Qatar.

In my everyday life, I'd have a laugh and a drink with Levy over said sheikh any day of the week. As for who I'd want as the part-owner and chairman of the football club I want to win trophies and compete for things...again, don't know. Or perhaps I do know, and I just don't want to say it due to cognitive dissonance. :p

I thought you were an 'at any cost' kind of fella for a minute.

on a side note, love to join you and Levy down the Nags Head for a couple sometime soon. I'm sure you have a few questions. (or get Levy to have one too many and he'll be spouting all kinds of stuff)
 
Paxton Road is no more

NORTHUMBERLAND DEVELOPMENT PROJECT - CLOSURE OF PAXTON ROAD
Posted on 10 June 2015 - 15:45

The Club can announce the closure of Paxton Road for general access with immediate effect, as we continue to progress our new stadium development.
p4-5%20new%20main%20image730.jpg


A section of Paxton Road between the High Road and the stadium will now be hoarded and included in the development site, therefore making it no longer viable as a public walkway.

For our supporters who currently sit in the North Stand, access to the stadium from the start of the 2015/16 season will be via a new hoarded walkway from Bill Nicholson Way.

As part of the road's permanent closure, all ticket collection points will be relocated with an update to follow regarding new arrangements, while Tottenham Square and the Member's marquee have also been closed.

We shall be providing further details concerning stadium access arrangements for our fans across club communication channels ahead of the new season to ensure there is minimal disruption to your matchday experience.
 
from the photo above..almost the whole of White Hart Lane will be in the new White Hart Lane setting..
Conclusion..LOL its still White Hart Lane...
all being..it becomes a reality!

Coys......
