"Tottenham's Trojan Horse? - Mark Panton and Amanda Lillywhite Provide Dire Warnings About Gentrification in the Name of Football" by Tom Baker on Broken Frontier.
Mark Panton interviewed by Discovering Tottenham.
Mark Panton interviewed about his research for the Birkbeck Big Ideas podcast.
Mark was interviewed by the following journalists:
David Conn for the Guardian "In the shadow of Spurs’ new stadium local residents fear for future"
Joel Essex for When Saturday Comes "Planning Consent".
Rory Smith for the New York Times "Tottenham Hotspur New Stadium Opens: Is There Room For Everyone?"
Oliver Brown for the Daily Telegraph "Tottenham's New Stadium: Beacon of Light or a Trojan Horse for Gentrification?"
Simon Allin for Enfield Independent "Haringey Council 'should get a better deal with developers '"
Ros Wynne Jones for the Mirror "Residents near Tottenham's new stadium fear they're being 'pushed out of area'"
You two have come up with an innovative way to turn research for a dissertation which is often read by a few into a book that will reach many.
The issues the book has raised, of course, are not limited in this case or North London. Mega structures like sports stadiums and mega events like the Olympic Games and World Expo all have complicated impact on urban life. Grass roots movements, citizen participation in the decision-making process and resistance (think the right to the city), all very important indeed.

Have been looking through this book. Really accessible and easy to follow. Tells a very complicated story very clearly. A must read about how regeneration works these days.

My copy of Tottenham's Trojan Horse has arrived. It chronicles the dispute over the regeneration project linked to the new #THFC stadium. It's as good as I hoped. Features Dave Morris, Claire Kober and various other key Haringey figures.
