Daniel Levy left in ‘impossible’ position as Tottenham announcement made

Daniel Levy had no choice but to make a recent decision at Tottenham after the club’s Premier League rivals left him in an “impossible” position.

Spurs have had a disastrous season in the Premier League.

The North London club sit 14th in the table and look increasingly unlikely to finish in the top half.

Ange Postecoglou’s side suffered their 15th Premier League defeat of the season on Sunday (16 March), losing 2-0 to Fulham at Craven Cottage.

Spurs fans were left furious at the full-time whistle, as Mathys Tel got caught up in an exchange with some of the travelling support.

Therefore, it seems as though Levy had no choice but to make the decision he did about next season recently, especially after what some of the club’s Premier League rivals had already announced.

Tottenham make new ticket announcement

In an official announcement on Wednesday (12 March), Tottenham confirmed that there will be no increase on season ticket or match ticket prices next season, as Levy and Spurs look to appease disgruntled fans.

While some fans might be pleased that they won’t need to pay more money next season, Lilywhite Rose owner John Wenham – speaking exclusively to Tottenham News – thinks Spurs were left with no choice but to make this decision.

“It was impossible for Levy and the club to increase the prices,” Wenham said.

“Spurs’ ticket prices are already among some of the highest, if not already the highest, in the Premier League. We had seen multiple other clubs such as Liverpool, West Ham and Brentford announce that their prices had been frozen.

“Therefore, there was no choice available to Tottenham to try and increase prices next season, especially as we might not have any European football once again next season.”

Levy does the bare minimum again at Tottenham

Freezing prices was the absolute least that Levy could do.

Instead of this announcement being celebrated, Tottenham were recently urged to slash ticket prices if Postecoglou’s side win the UEFA Europa League this season, as a gesture of goodwill to supporters.

However, that is incredibly unlikely to happen, and it looks like fans will once again need to settle for the bare minimum in North London.
