None of those sides have a stadium adequate for NFLKahn owns Fulham and Jacksonville - is that helping Fulham? Kroenke owns Arsenal and the Rams - is that helping Arsenal? Glazers own the Tampa Bay Bucs - is that helping United?
He's tight and skint because of the stadiumWhat do you mean?
Sure - the NFL may rent the stadium - but there is no indication that ENIC are going to buy an NFL franchise.If there is money to be made (there is) and the NFL wants a London team (they do) then Tottenham is where they'll be playing.
Ok?None of those sides have a stadium adequate for NFL
What are those chains/ropes?
Sure - the NFL may rent the stadium - but there is no indication that ENIC are going to buy an NFL franchise.
And just adding another tenant to the stadium will not deliver a lot of money to ENIC, and there is no indication that ENIC would even invest whatever money they get back into Spurs.
Nobody pays attention to the stadium when NFL teams play.I think it’s highly unlikely ENIC would buy a franchise. It will most like be an existing franchise moving. Even as a rental I’d imagine it will open the door to many revenue streams. To start with you’re expanding your brand awareness to the whole of the NFL watching public. And even though the franchise would be renting. People would still basically associate the franchise with us. Tottenham Hotspur stadium home of the London jaguars or whatever they will be called. I’d imagine it would be a multi layered deal that wasn’t just a straight forward rental agreement.
Khan wants to move his franchise to london even if he denies it sometimes.Sure - the NFL may rent the stadium - but there is no indication that ENIC are going to buy an NFL franchise.

Thats not true at allNobody pays attention to the stadium when NFL teams play.
Nobody pays attention to the stadium when NFL teams play.
And, by the time the NFL puts a franchise in London - there will be a sponsor for the stadium, and Spurs would rarely be mentioned in any broadcast.
NFL deal will help pay off the stadium, so it has value. But, its not the kind of value that would change our transfer strategy.
It probably has more value to ENIC though the hotel its building, and in other local property development.
When did they play?Sorry but it’s slightly ridiculous to say nobody takes notice of the stadium. You think anyone that watched the seahawks took no notice it was at Wembley ?
When did they play?
This is the broadcast map:
The only people getting the Seattle-Oakland game were on the West Coast (in blue) - for a 10 AM game. Nobody watched. And people did not care that it was at Wembley - other than grumbling about having to watch two west coast teams at 10 am.
I have been to over a dozen NFL stadiums from the Iconic to Cookie-Cutter - I have had season tickets to two different teams. I used to watch NFL games religiously. Nobody cares about the stadium on TV.
The business journalist for the Telegraph said he wouldn’t get what you have stated. Barely 50/50 at best. BUT it’s not Brexit and a close vote one way or the other would never get through. It would have had to be by a substantial margin. I heard a 20 minute chat about it on the radio.It’s not what is being reported. Being said he would have won the vote with 65%. But he felt that wasnt conclusive enough for his peace of mind. Which I take to be utter nonsense. This was only ever a business deal, don’t tell me he was doing it for the good of grass roots football. He was doing it for his own pocket. Which is why a true business man wouldnt care if he won it by 51%.
