Our Club has sustained heavy damage to its reputation and may yet face further repercussions from attempting to break away. LATEST NEWS FROM THE TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR SUPPORTERS' TRUST These brief notes are based on his report of the meeting. First, some stats. Mike Riley said that since VAR, refereeing decisions are accurate 95% of the time, compared with 83% in the recent past. The average VAR check lasts 32 seconds, and most of the time this takes place unobtrusively.

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR SUPPORTERS' TRUST Welcome to the home of the Tottenham Hotspur Supporters' Trust. We are an independent, not-for-profit membership organisation run by fans for fans. We aim to ensure fans’ voices are heard at Club and national

level.

We work with Spurs fan groups across the UK and the rest of the world, and alongside the national supporter organisation the Football Supporters' Association. THST is run on a day-to-day basis by an elected board of fans. Elections are held every year. All board members are volunteers, which means they are not paid for their work, and give up their own time. To preserve THST’s independence, board members receive nothing for the

work they do.

We work hard to ensure a fan perspective is considered in all decisions. We base our approach on the regular surveys we carry out, on the feedback we get, and on our own experiences and discussions

with fans.

We are Spurs fans first and foremost, but we believe the issues we face are similar to fans everywhere. So we are committed to being part of a growing network of national and international supporter groups. Our main areas of work at THFC and nationally are ticket pricing, fixture scheduling, policing and safety, and governance. Our remit extends to all off-field matters. And we work with the local community to strengthen ties between the Club and the area in which it is based. We have established a successful dialogue with THFC. To continue doing so, and to build on our achievements so far, we need as many Spurs fans as possible to join us.
