Levy Set To Make A Mockery Arsenal & Chelsea Stadiums

By The Boy -

According to The Times, ENIC have managed to secure the £350million funding they need to pay for ‘the new destination’.

‘HSBC, Goldman Sachs and Merrill Lynch will provide almost half of the money required to complete the £750 million rebuilding of White Hart Lane. The rest of the funding will come from advanced ticket sales, a ten-year ground rental arrangement with the NFL and a possible naming-rights deal.’

Oh dearie me.

Flat Earthers give me what you got. I’m serious. Tell me how it really is.

The cost of the new stadium build over doubled. You stayed silent.

Now, it turns out that the financing of this masterpiece is no more sophisticated than cashing in a AAA credit rating with the City.

I won’t drone on about how it’s never ENIC’s money that gets put up, because that might imply that some of you mental deadbeats are still unaware of how the Spurs name has been massaged and manipulated to ends that have nothing to do with football.

What’s ‘funny’ is that Levy has been sweating about getting this loan over the line because the City have only been asking awkward questions about the delivery of local government infrastructure because the football offer his so ruddy bloody thin.

Spurs under Levy have become the great pretenders. I don’t want to hear about financial stability because that’s the biggest myth of all time.

‘Not going bust’ whilst operating a Premier League club isn’t an achievement.

Good grief, some of you must kneel before a favourite teddy bear of a night and ask it not to send a meteorite to smash your your home and sleeping family before you go to bed.

Despite the money haemorrhaging into White Hart Lane this jumped up clerk has still failed to build a side that can win anything.

Instead, we’re staring at an immediate debt that is going to be repaid rather slowly and rather cautiously. In fact, Levy ONLY got the loan because they knew they were giving the money to Levy.

If HSBC can rely upon on thing in the whole wide world, it’s for Levy not to blow a penny on players. Worst case scenario they can turf the bald avenger onto the streets and they’ve got a state of the art venue in London defaulted into their lap.

Did I expect the build to be done for free?

What I did expect was to walk into this cock-up with more than a sign bearing the legend ‘Fingers Crossed’ above the door.

When Arsenal moved into the Emptycrates it was based upon an illustrious track record of winning things.

When Chelsea move into the New Bridge it will be based upon an illustrious track record of winning things.

Spurs embark on this brave new chapter in its history armed only with the threat of a Cheese Room and 372 separate player quotes that more than hint that they would like to win something before they die.

I’m questioning how sustainable the stadium will be without success.

Maybe 16 years of mediocrity has already managed fan expectations and there’s nothing to worry about. The place will be full every game, forever and ever amen.

As things stand Levy is set to make a mockery of both Arsenal and Chelsea by expanding his brand without having ever bothered to compete as a football club.
