Spurs: going down & also going up

In Uncategorized on May 20, 2026 by kmflett

I’m a lifelong Spurs fan and live a few minutes from the ground in central Tottenham.

While Arsenal won the Premiership on Tuesday, Spurs need a point from their last game against Everton on Sunday to be sure of staying in it.

The only surprise is that it took so long to get there. They almost did it last year but winning the Europa League compensated (and typically for Spurs got Ange Postecoglou the sack to be replaced by Thomas Frank, who frankly was not up to navigating life at Spurs).

The FT takes a rather different perspective (19th May 2026). Noting that the new Stadium has brought in revenue from concerts and NFL games, it points to the reality that while Spurs are the ninth richest club in the world, they have been in debt for the last five years. Being in debt costs money and if Spurs do end up in the Championship they will lose around £270m in revenue, mainly from TV rights.

Any way COYS as ever…
