If you're not in the Premier League, the value of your commercial deals is going to go down.
Match day income, that would go down from ยฃ126 million because you can't
charge the same price for championship tickets as you do for Premier League tickets and broadcast revenue would take a massive hit as well because they wouldn't be getting Premier League TV money they would be getting EFL money the one area where they would continue to make money if they were in the championship is from hosting events at their stadium
So, for instance, the likes of Beyonce would still be able to play at their stadium because it doesn't matter to her whether they're in the championship or they're in the Premier League.
But they struggle to fit them in because they play more games in the championship.
They would have more games.
games but i'm sure they could find ways around that if tyson fury wanted to carry on fighting there he could carry on uh fighting there for instance uh this summer bad bunny the most streamed artist of last year who played the halftime show he's playing at tottenham stadium it makes no difference whatsoever to bad bunny whether spurs are in the premier league or in the championship unless he's a spurs fan i cannot believe you got bad bunny twice into this show all right um
What would it mean for any possible takeover?
Well, look, Tottenham have been the subject of a lot of takeover interest.
Obviously, if they were to go down, the price on the club would be less if they were a championship club compared to a Premier League club.
But whenever we're talking about Tottenham and possible takeovers, we should make it clear that the club is not for sale.
The present owners, the Joe Lewis Family Trust, say the club is not for sale.
They're committed to the club.
the moment, if you talk to people in the city, for instance, they would say Spurs are valued at up to three and a half billion pounds, including debt.
Now, if they were to be relegated, of course, that figure would go down.
You also have to remember at the moment, the world economy has taken a big hit because of the Iran war.
as much money around as there was.
For instance, investors from Saudi Arabia may not be as interested as they were previously in buying a Premier League football club because they've got more important things on their mind.
