On the playing side Spurs have done brilliantly so far this season to stay in the title race and the CL, which considering there has been ZERO investment in the squad, is an incredible achievement. Levy has been very fortunate on that front, because whilst the stadium has been a fiasco, MP and...

As I've said before, its no skin off my nose, I'm just an interested observer rubbernecking the car crash. You seem fairly blasé about the situation, which is fine, but there are plenty of Spurs fans who are furious not just with the unending delays (which as you've said can easily happen on...

Well, it affected the 2 scheduled NFL games that had to be binned off to alternate venues. And its affected all the fans who had bought tickets / season tickets to the new stadium in good faith, only to find that they had a choice of either continuing to yomp up to Wembley, or apply for a...

Fair enough. But March 27th is very much the fag-end of the season though, hardly halfway through. There would only have been a handful of home games left anyway, so I can't really see that this compares with the Spurs fiasco of (having actually sold tickets for it) - "we start in our new...

Archer barely attended any games BEFORE Knight took over. I certainly don't recall him ever making any appearances at the Goldstone once we knew he'd sold us down the river. His sock-puppet Belotti was the c**t there on his behalf.

Pretty sure we were expecting potentially 3 years at Priestfield and provisioned for exactly that. I don't remember going there thinking it was for 1 season only. We had to lodge a £500k bond with the EFL committing to returning to Brighton, but there was a LOT to sort out in terms ot getting...

Its all going to pot. They've only gone and cancelled the CHEESE ROOM now. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/feb/11/tottenham-new-stadium-no-cheese-room-spurs

Surely its at the stage now where the "grand opening" should be next season. A couple of ramp-up friendlies in the summer, then start there for real in August. Whats the point of having the scrag-end of the home games there now ? Its been a complete fiasco all season long, why risk yet MORE...

It HAS been a PR disaster - you've only got to trawl the Spurs messageboards on the subject to see the amount of anger and frustration this has caused, not to mention the ramifications of binning off the scheduled NFL games. It'll all be alright in the end, but up until now, its been a...

What do I have to be angry about ? Its no skin off my nose. I'm always very interested in stadium builds though, and like to keep an eye on them. This one has been particularly interesting to me, because it has turned into a complete and utter debacle and is now a high-profile PR disaster. Now...

After all the false starts, Levy refuses to put a date on it now. They still don't know. Strictly speaking, they shouldn't even be allowed to play there till next season.

It'll clearly be great. But its massively delayed, and coming in massively over budget (its gone from £400m to pushing a billion). They carried on selling season tickets for that stadium whilst fully in the knowledge it was never going to be ready - its been obvious for over a year they'd never...

Sorry chap :lolol:

"Further delay in new Spurs stadium" isn't really news any more, is it.

Some light at the end of the Spurs tunnel at last - FIFA19 comes out at the end of this month. So Spurs fans will be able to see a game in the completed version of their stadium, months in advance of it being finished. Good old EA.

I have no more idea than anyone else what has specifically caused this epic delay, whether its Levy meddling round the edges or whatever. But given the sheer size of the build, and the complex nature of it (hydraulic pitch, touchlines rising and falling x6ft, cheeserooms etc), the timescale they...

I see they've given up now on even setting a date for the ramp-up events and first game. It was fairly obvious last Autumn they were struggling, and by Spring it looked like kicking off there in August was going to be a pipe dream. But even I didn't think it'd be dragging on into December and...

Sure, so why not be honest about it from the outset rather than selling season tickets based on the (hopeful) notion that it'll be ready for the new season. No wait, ready for mid-September. No, wait...sometime in October (maybe). I'd be royally macked off if I'd bought tickets to the new WHL...

At a guess, I'd say its officialised Levy waffle that basically all boils down to "its nowhere near ready". Losing that NFL game will have cost them a pretty penny as well, and must be fairly embarrassing. I wonder how many Spurs fans have bought their season tickets thinking they'd be there...
