The club has refused to speculate or comment about the fire. Archway Sheet Metals believes that the fire was the result of arson and has referred to threats it claims to have received from Spurs fans. The cause of the fire is being treated as suspicious and an investigation is under way, but it is too early to say what the cause was.
