'The West Ham Screening is Cancelled' posted by THST on 05/05/2006
With reference to the earlier statement about the West Ham game being screened at White Hart Lane, it seems Sky do not wish to allow Spurs fans who do not have a ticket to be able to see the game.

Not only did they decide not to show the game, when we are still in contention for fourth place, but now they have pulled the plug on the live beam back.

This is how the official Spurs web site broke the news:




We’d like to apologise to our fans but unfortunately we are now unable to proceed with the planned screening of our last game of the season away at West Ham on Sunday 7th May at 3pm.

We were particularly eager to bring this important match to you and having moved quickly and at short notice to try and stage the screening, it has now become evident that we cannot secure the necessary permissions from the FA Premier League and Sky to show the match. Clubs have been informed late this afternoon that no match can be screened live if there is a live game being televised on Sky at the same time.

All those supporters who have already purchased tickets for the screening will be able to obtain a full refund by returning their ticket to the ticket office.

We appreciate that supporters will be greatly disappointed and we sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused.
