Training ground changes

the lease of Whitewebbs for X years would have meant a better facility for the women .. who need the same facilities incl a recovery pool for ACL injuries. That has now failed unless the High Court can intervene to force the new Local Conservative Government to sign the lease (he is anti Spurs) along with the local sandal brigade gypsies.

Do we really need a Hotel and really how often is it used? bar for a few new players setlling whilst accomodation is found. I think the last visit was the US Women's team a year or so ago. We certainly cannot accomodate the full US Football entourage every year - they bring over a 100 staff/players and a busloads of gear. They wont care if they rip up the pitches !!!!

Maybe the club should open up the place for paying tours to help finance whatever they need especially for the women's side. The men will get what they need thats clear to see just like Man City and Man Utd recently did with their overhaul.
 
The future of the former Whitewebbs Golf Course rests on the outcome of a High Court judicial review.

The development is in limbo after [Enfield Council] underwent a leadership change and withdrew its legal defense of the scheme. The fate of the 25-year lease to [Tottenham Hotspur] now depends entirely on a judge's ruling.

The saga has taken a dramatic turn following local elections and shifts in local politics. The situation centers around the following key dynamics:
  • Political Reversal: The newly elected minority [Conservative administration] won power on a pledge to save [Whitewebbs Park] from development, resulting in the new council leader refusing to sign the lease with [Tottenham Hotspur].
  • High Court Challenge: Campaigners from the [Guardians of Whitewebbs] proceeded with a High Court judicial review to challenge the planning permission originally granted to the Premier League club.
  • The Council's Stance: In a highly unusual move, the judicial review hearing proceeded without a legal defense from the local authority, as the council no longer supports the project.
The judge’s upcoming verdict will determine whether the controversial planning permission is overturned or if the £2 million lease and construction of the women's training facility will ultimately proceed.

- seems to be quite stacked against us now - lets hope the Judge aint a Gooner
