I doubt the delay to ours is anything to do with the Woolwich, but the speed at which theirs was granted certainly was. I think it was even bought up (albeit very quietly) at the time, how rapidly everything had fallen into place which would've taken something like a school or hospital months to push through.
A few bob here and there, a flash of Dein's smile - because, lets face it, it's clear that he was far more the driving force behind the dominant Woolwich setup of recent years than anyone else at that campsite - and papers were signed on the spot.
Unfortunately, i doubt Spurs has anything like the number of pre-greased wheels in the various government departments, and Levy isn't exactly known for his charm or splashing money on anything that can't be achieved in other ways.
