Spurs Stadium Future Secure

The transfer deadline day wheelings and dealings have largely dominated the sport news this week, meaning that one significant football story has managed, somehow, to sneak under the radar, despite the fact that the long-term future of one Premier League club could well be affected by the news.

The piece of news in question focuses upon the decision from North London side Tottenham Hotspur to accept government funding to stay put in the Tottenham area, which means they no longer need to worry about rudely and unsubtly pushing in on the move desired by West Ham United to head to the Olympic Stadium.

Although the news may not be an immediate headline grabber, it is surely going to have a huge impact on the future of Tottenham Hotspur, a club that previously had nothing tying them down or holding them back in the transfer windows.

With the club's manager Harry Redknapp renowned for enjoying spending money rather than involving himself in any sort of frugal financial affairs (note to Harry – don't manage in Germany!), this could perhaps come to be viewed as the final straw in a relationship between manager and chairman that has been placed under considerable strain for some time now.

With this in mind, punters who bet on sport will need to consider that the future of Tottenham as a club may well hinge on the success of the current squad to stick together and continue to develop over the next few years, something that Arsenal have struggled badly to do since they moved to the Emirates Stadium. If they can do this and then come out the other end a richer and more financially secure club, then Spurs may well be entering a new era that could be very, very successful.
