Daniel Levy - Chairman

Tottenham Hotspur plc ?
"Tottenham currently played..."
"Tottenham Hotspur was one of the oldest teams in the premiership..." (did other clubs (not teams!) somehow become older?)
"Tottenham Hotspur...being were leaders in social responsibility.."

Shocking attention to detail in a paper from a supposedly prestigious and esteemed institution. Standards are going to hell in a handcart :(

Or it's gonads.
 
Our yearly revenue is massively below pool, city, chelsea, united, scum. On average we turnover what roughly £250m less than them? The old saying goes revenue is vanity and profit is sanity. Just having high revenue means nothing, its profit the bottom line that is important. But on that £250m odd there must be a decent profit margin?

So the question is, what will increase our revenue in the new stadium, and how much more profitable will Spurs operation be once in the new ground? Once debts are dealt with, will we be on a par with the arse? Or similar to pool? And what will make up the increased revenue?

I guess the other factor is presence, having a new stadium should have a bearing on Spurs brand and peoples awareness of Spurs leading to greater exposure which is something that practically impossible to put a price on. It should all mean we have more to spend on wages and transfers, but how much more?

I wouldn't get too excited tbh. United for example are likely to keep growing much faster than us year on year even after we've moved into the new stadium. We just might close the gap slightly on the other four but they are already so far ahead of us that even a small percentage annual growth by them will probably mean they continue to outstrip us going forward.

And we will still need to qualify for the CL on a regular basis as well as start winning the BIG trophies. The domestic cups are relatively small fry when it comes to increased revenue nowadays.

Imo it will take many years of continued success combined with one or two of the others starting to go into long-term decline before we can hope to be right up with the very biggest hitters.

Looks like Spurs made almost 20% profit in most recent published accounts, £57m on £210m

I’d expect match day revenue to increase by around £60m (to match Effeminates) when we move into the new stadium... no idea what sponsorship deals Levy has lined up...

It's Arsenal & Pool the stadium will help us compete with, United (their sheer size and fan base), City & Chelsea (money doping) are still in a different league.

I would say, with Levy, I'm quite optimistic, our revenue will likely double, while that still may not make us one of the big players, it is a significant change in our spending ability which I think could be applied to our biggest risk area (wages) for long term success.

Agreed...

i am a "global" fan. I visit to watch live every 3-4 years usually try to catch 2 games. I pay for lilywhite membership. I usually buy merchandise when i am in London and occasionally at local shops in my country. If i am a good sample of "global" fan i suspect the revenue may not be that much. i spend most on air travel and hotels actually which don't benefit the club. but my love for the club should rival some UK fans.
 
I think with the stadium we could level the playing field with Arsenal and Liverpool, and Chelsea as long as Abramovich continues to try and run it properly.

And then, much depends on success. If we are successful, and our brand and reach grows, then so can our merchandising and sponsorship revenues too.

And, given the NFL connections (and the tours etc we have already done) the US is a prime and ripe target we are set to tap into ....

In a situation where the bottom falls out of football revenue wise, the new stadium is an absolute game changer.

At bare minimum, if tv revenue takes a dive, we at least facilitated the golden goose era of football to build ourselves a new training complex and world class stadium that is all ours and will see us through this century.

For any team (beyond doping) to pull of such a project without the ridiculous levels of tv money, considering the costs of players and wages would be near on impossible.

To do it, achieving the league finishes we are is the genius part.

I do wonder about that. This is based on absolutely bugger all knowledge, but aren't the kids in Singapore now more likely to choose Emirates Marketing Project or Chelsea shirts than Yanited? There are only so many years without major success, with dire football, that can be glossed over. I'd imagine that Emirates Marketing Project are now perceived firmly as the glamour team. I'd also imagine/hope that our good football and Kane/Alli axis puts us in good stead with the FIFA generation -- would the geeky more alternative kids look to Spurs?

At the moment, yes, ManU have the biggest brand. They've worked bloody hard for it in Asia and the Middle East, and two decades of solid success in the global media era has them entrenched. But if I was the biggest tractor manufacturer in Kazakhstan, I'd be bidding for Emirates Marketing Project first and offering ManU a bit less.

Things change quickly these days. Hopefully we'll start winning some of the global sponsorship deals that we wouldn't even be considered for a few years ago.
