If there was any doubt in your mind that the cutting of senior concessions was, as the Club claims, for ‘sustainability reasons’, take a look at the whopping £5.5m paid in bonuses to just 3 board members. This is a choice.

A heartfelt letter to Levy from a loyal fan hit by the changes;
“Loyalty is gained over the years by the sense of feeling wanted, not exploited”
There‘s no justification for the removal of concessions, with £4.8m earnings per game, exploiting the most loyal is an abhorrent move

Strong letter from
@nufctrust
on their concerns around the spiralling price of attending football, and the impact on the community and traditions of our clubs.
Price hikes and the axing of senior concessions at
#Spurs
are more examples of the greed sweeping through our game.
This afternoon, we have written to Darren Eales expressing our opinions and concerns over the price of attending football.
We believe that it's vital to protect our long-serving and loyal supporter base from Premier League wide price increases, starting with our own club.…

@WeAreTheFSA
. Ticket price rises and the attack on concessions is a choice throughout the division. Don’t let our Club, or anyone else, tell you otherwise.
Well said, FSA. An important message.👏👏
Top-flight football has a spending problem, not an income problem. Squeezing fans for every last penny makes little difference to a club's bottom line - matchday income is a small % of PL club revenue.
