Your Board is subject to the following rules:- Examine the Board Rules here. Note that these are the rules for the structure and behaviour of the Board and not the Trust as a whole.

Your board is as follows:-

Bernie Kingsley - Chairman

Bernie (elected member) will be familiar to those who read CADD (Cock-a-Doodle-Doo), which is one of the popular Spurs fanzines published on glossy paper several times a season! Bernie helped to found this title and also TISA (The Tottenham Independent Supporters' Association). Bernie recognises that football fans' loyalty has been exploited with the growth of the game in the last ten years and that the formation of the Trust enables us to have a powerful new relationship with THFC based on mutual respect. Bernie was re-elected to the Board in 2008, and then elected as Chairman with effect from 30th October, 2008. Bernie's opening statement as new Chairman of the Trust can be read here

Darren Alexander

Darren was re-elected onto the Trust Board in October 2007, having served as a co-opted member. Darren is a Home and Away season ticket holder who has worked in Sales & Marketing who intends to use this experience to increase the Trust's membership and expand its awareness to a large audience. Darren previously played a part in organising the Internet Hotspurs Football Team, a founder member of the Internet Football Association (IFA) which was set up to promote goodwill and friendship between other domestic and european supporters. He has now retired from playing and wishes to devote his time to promoting the Trust. Darren will look after your ticket office queries.

Tim Edwards

Tim was co-opted onto the board in November 2007 as Treasurer, having participated in Trust activities for several years. Professionally, he has worked in the insurance industry for over 20 years, travelled to some 50 countries, and now is involved in the development of a new Europe-wide insurance regulatory standard. He believes that THST is in a strong position to represent fans' issues to the club, to help to influence club policy in key areas, and to help to interpret club positioning to fans, and wants to see this work both continue and develop. A lifelong fan and long-time season-ticket holder, he has recently completed an MSc in Sport Management and the Business of Football, specialising in football clubs' business models and general management activities. His experience is also practical, through consultancy involvement in football club management and marketing, as well as through membership of a number of other Trusts, at all levels of the game. Tim is also Chairman of Lea Valley FC, a multicultural community-based club based in Clapton, east London. Tim is the Trust's treasurer

Derek Ridgers

Howard Sherman

Howard was co-opted to the board in January 2009 and as the newest member hopes to add new impetus into the trust and fully intends to help build a working relationship with the THFC board and help to significantly increase membership of the trust. "Having followed Spurs for my whole life, I feel duty bound to help move the club forward and will help promote the trust and significantly increase its profile over the coming years. Hopefully as the club moves forward into the next generation, with the new stadium project, both the club and the Trust will work closely together in order to jointly build a very exciting team both on and off the pitch. "

Graham Wilkinson

"Having been born to a Spurs supporting Dad in 1984 and being named after Graham Roberts there was only one club I was going to support. I want to bring a fresh perspective to the Trust and be a link between the younger members and the Board; I feel that an increasing membership is the only way the make our voice heard, and we need to reach out to fans any way we can. I have once again been co-opted to the board in 2008."

Daniel Wynne

Daniel was re-elected to the board in October 2007, and was re-elected by fellow board members as your Chairman. Daniel stood down as Chairman in October, 2008, but remains an elected board member. Daniel is married with two Spurs-mad sons. He was not a member of previous fans' groups but he worked with their members and grew to respect them in the months that included the formation of the THST, in which Daniel played a full part. Daniel believes passionately in the Trust, and has already illustrated the dedication that he promised prior to being elected. Daniel enjoys serving on the board of the Trust and looks forward to continuing his work.
