Tottenham are asking not to be called Tottenham

The recent Sky Sports coverage of Tottenham Hotspur’s matches has revealed a subtle change in how the club is referred to. In the past, the team was often labeled simply as “Tottenham” in graphics and interviews. However, a recent email circulated to Premier League broadcasters on February 10 has shed light on the club’s preferred name.

According to the email, Tottenham Hotspur has requested to be primarily known as “Tottenham Hotspur” or simply “Spurs”, with the club discouraging the use of just “Tottenham.” This guidance has been implemented by various broadcasters, including Sky Sports, aligning with the club’s wishes.

The club’s stance on this issue dates back to 2011, but it was reinforced by a “remastered brand identity” introduced in November last year. The new brand guidelines emphasize the use of “Tottenham Hotspur” or “Spurs” over just “Tottenham” in all references to the club.

While some may argue that “Tottenham” is just the name of the area and not the club itself, others see the name as synonymous with the team. The club’s rich history, tied to the area where it was founded and where it has always played, has solidified the connection between the club and the Tottenham community.

The name “Hotspur” itself has a unique and historical significance, stemming from the medieval knight Henry Percy, known as “Hotspur”, after whom the club was named. This heritage is cherished by many fans, alongside the club’s association with the Tottenham area.

Ultimately, while the club’s new branding guidelines may emphasize “Tottenham Hotspur” or “Spurs” as the preferred names, for many fans, the name “Tottenham” will always hold a special place in their hearts. The club’s identity is deeply intertwined with its roots in the Tottenham community, making the name more than just a geographical reference.

In conclusion, the recent changes in how Tottenham Hotspur is referred to in media coverage reflect the club’s efforts to reinforce its brand identity. However, the name “Tottenham” remains a significant part of the club’s history and identity, cherished by fans who see it as more than just a geographical label.
