Spurs Season ticket News
The club have decided to postponed season-ticket renewals for next season after all Premier League football was suspended due to the spread of the coronavirus. Unfortunately, that came too late for me as I had to pay before the March 1 dead-line (being a Premium Member).
How long this situation will continue will be anybody’s guess. Governments from across the planet are trying to muster up a strong response to the spread of this virus. Some have even suggested that the football league should cancel the rest of the season, but I can’t see that happening as it would, not only cost a lot of money, but could see a lot of clubs go to the wall.
Now that the Euro 20s have been cancelled I would imagine that we could see the league continuing right through the summer (if necessary).
Karen Brady, West Ham director, has suggested that the season should be cancelled. From her perspective, I can understand that, as West Ham are struggling at the wrong end of the table.
Tottenham’s 50,000 or so season-ticket holders were due to be able to renew their seats for the 2020-21 season from March 17 until May 1.
The report also relayed a statement by the club that read:
We are acutely aware of the uncertain, difficult times we are all living through along with the subsequent disruption to the footballing calendar and have, therefore, taken the decision to postpone the opening of these renewals whilst we await greater clarity. We shall keep the opening date under review and will update you as and when a decision is taken to start renewals. We appreciate your support and patience as we attempt to minimise the impact of Covid-19 across Club operations. Our thoughts are with all those currently affected and we wish them well.
We shall keep you updated.

I am currently a Premium Season Ticket holder (West Stand) in the new stadium. Before that – at White Hart Lane – a season ticket holder in various parts of the ground (mainly in the North stand).
Before becoming a season ticket holder, I stood on the shelf and various other parts of the ground since the 1950s. In 1987 I became one of the first to hold a Spurs Membership card. I was also a life long member of the Spurs supporters club (now defunct).
I go to all home, away and abroad matches.
I was born in 1955, Edgware, London (it was in the late 50s – as a baby – that my dad took me to Spurs to initiate me). I currently live in Berkshire.
I also collect all Spurs books (and have everyone printed), Spurs handbooks (from 1920s onwards, Spurs programmes (since the 40s).
