Speculation but all of Heineken’s other acquisitions have been 49% initially then 100%
Else why would Heineken care about a minority stake in a business turning over <£100M if they weren’t eventually going to take full control

You do know contactless only works 4 or 5 times a day before you have to verify it's you with the PIN?
Are you sure? I only use contactless when I go to matches. I must use it over 4 or 5 times.

The Spurs fans behind us in Corporate were horrible, being offensive and aggressive at the end of the game. Not sure our fans bothered reacting, but it would be a big flash point at some games (they play West Ham on Saturday). Would not be surprised if they have a problem with this soon.

It wasn’t a concourse as such just a bit of space upstairs with no access to the ground.
The shelf above the stairs was inward leaning so you couldn’t rest a pint on it

Impressive inside and aesthetically pleasing both inside and outside. Standing seat barriers in the away section (but not in home section as far as I could see) was a good feature.
Some little issues to address:
For a huge stadium the away concourse was still too small.
The large drop off the ends and sides of the pitch is dangerous for players running too fast (not a problem for our players obvs). I know this is because of the artificial pitch underneath.
Sound system was echoing / clashing at half-time. Need to get the engineers back.
Too much horse poo on Tottenham High Road.
I am being picky, clearly. If we’d taken a point I’d have called it flawless.

And many NSC’ers have a soft spot for Spuds, creaming themselves over WHL. Strange.

Another London stadium coming along nicely.

Whose ground?
Brentford. Looks awful to be fair.
Walked around the outside of the stadium and saw quite a few programme sellers.
Still cashless though......

Looks like a great design had it been built 30 years earlier.
Looks a spitting image of Northamptons ground.

Not true.......sometimes the banks will randomly require PIN entry for security reasons but there isn’t normally a daily number of transaction limits.

I thought you had a maximum amount you were allowed to spend using contactless per day?

Going to check later that it didn't go through. Only used it once that day and hardly use my card as I'm a cash guy.
Nope

I just checked up. With my bank, it's £30 max per purchase. No daily limit.
Mostly not, but they ‘randomly’ (it’s not truly random) implement PIN entry from time to time. The £30 limit applies to all contactless transactions for all banks
