Is Your Child Terminally Ill? Got Some Spare Cash? Bid Now!

By The Boy -

If you’ve got a terminally ill child, you can give Spurs cash (currently at £7,000+) in order land spot as a mascot for our last game at The Lane, plus 4 tickets.

The cash (currently at £7,000+) goes into Spurs Wishes which is a sub-division of the Tottenham Foundation.

THFC describe Spurs Wishes as…

…set up to capture the work already carried out at Tottenham Hotspur by the Club’s staff, management and players for terminally ill fans.

Each year the Club receives letters and emails from friends and family of supporters who believe that Spurs can play some part in the treatment of terminally ill fans.

The Club recognises that by bringing a moment of happiness through a memorable experience like this can have a positive uplifting effect, whatever the future holds.

Spurs Wishes, which exists as a separate initiative within the Tottenham Hotspur Foundation, enables the Club to make more Spurs dreams a reality for fans of all ages suffering from terminal illness within the UK.

Er… I don’t get a number of things here.

  1. Why doesn’t the club just let these poorly children be mascots and hand out free seats to their parents for free as a matter of routine?
  2. Can someone explain to me how with a straight face is kept THFC raise money for an activity they can provide for free, and then use the funds to er… offer these activities?
  3. You get 4 tickets, one of which is for the kid, another MUST be for a parent. So that means you’re only getting 2 complimentary seats!

Spurs have broken the Charity mould with this one.

They are lifting cash off of people who are in need …and giving it to themselves – in order to perpetuate the process.

Ordinarily went businesses try to pull a stunt like this they are investigated by the Serious Fraud Office.
