Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - Licence To Stand

The FA may start to rue the decision to allow us to play there to get our stadium built!

I wonder if we’ll see the club apply to extend the license and allow more full capacity events in a year or two’s time as the demand grows?
 
Would likely be great for the area if they made events like this a bit NFL ones with the ‘tailgate party’ type things to encourage people to arrive early and sample the local food/drink options.

Chick King?

edit: way ahead @Gazza Dazzla

There are more and more interesting places to eat around Tottenham. Lots of latin inspired places, some rare cuisine like Mauritian etc but in quite iffy looking places. You have to know and not be put off by the facade.

Defo potential to get these local businesses involved if they can scale up for an "NFL fiesta street party" etc.

Any you’d care to recommend? Still reeling from Pavro Ockabasi’s closure :(

To be honest, I've not ventured north to try them. With a little one and no games, I havn't been in Tottenham.

Le Chamarel was recomended to me by a Mauratian. Fascinating cuisine as it's a mix of Asian and African (a trading stop between the two - a unique fusion). Defo want to try it.

Uncle Johns Bakery is interesting.

Pueblito Paisa was also suggested - rice, beans, meat, huge portions kind of thing. No idea if its any good, worth sniffing it out and if lots of Latin American people are eating there, you know it's half-decent at least.

 
Paul Coyte gone … :(

He’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but defo part of the whole match day experience. I’ll miss him. Sure there will be some shiny new young influencer type in his stead.

Levy has gone from a man who owned a chunk of Mr Byrite through his family to now having a share of A mega sporting club worth probably around £300m to him alone
He has done that without actually putting much money in at all
The are many things he has done well, clearly. There are also many things he could have done better
But the guy is now ultimately worth a lot, lot, lot more because of the work he has had a massive involvement in

He has also very discreetly bought all that property off the club at knock down rates, once they do all the building work it will be worth a fortune. He could have left the land with the club and developed it via them.

I’ve not seen evidence of that anywhere
I’ve seen the clubs property business be set up
And of course he is part owner of that
Care to shed more light?

I don't know all the details, just info that was posted on here I think. Either Spurs bought lots of property and sat on it and then sold it on once this project was further along and planning permission was a certainty or they bought it themselves knowing that the project would lead to planning permission instead of letting the club own it all and making money from it (like Arsenal did). I'm sure someone here will have more details.

Allowed? It wasn't exactly for free. The rent was pretty hefty.

I’ve read all of that
The club owns the land you refer too and has changed the title to the clubs property development side
It will get developed and make the share in the club worth more than it is currently
You can’t just sell stuff like land for less than it’s value to yourself (I wish my property dev bus could do that) although values do change Over time

Land with and without planning permission has vastly different values, my understanding is that planning permission was applied for after the transfer of the land had been made to the new company.
