Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Sounds like sex after 40
Nah, that usually involves the Dartford Tunnel...
That translucent piece will form an ‘inner ring’ and will go the whole way round. My bet is atop the North Stand like a boss
Looks like they have put a special glass panel on the East stand roof...could it be someone's new home?
Don't forget the tolls.
I'd like to see that but would be surprised as that whole stand is dedicated to NFL. If there is a Stand that is prime location it would have to be the South Stand, given that is also where the Sky Walk things goes too, give the walk a focal point and it literally hangs over the whole ground. You can see it's already taking shape, looks the perfect platform.

I’m really hoping the people I sit near at the new stadium aren’t total fuckwits.
Got really lucky this season. Decent people around us.
Seeing comments on twitter similar to “wouldn’t have renewed if we got Europa League” makes me realise how many new ST holders won’t really appreciate what we have right now.
We weren’t always anywhere near being this good......... and even now people are still pretty unhappy!

No, it's done at walking pace and you can't touch both sides at once...

Hopefully will allow more supporters to see the end of games
Not the most dramatic of news but a decent one to discuss..
I have heard from a friend today (who I trust with this particular news) that the beers served at the main concourse bars at New WHL will be Amstel, Heineken, London Pride and a 4th tbc (which will be Budweiser for FA Cup games), and there will be separate places around the ground selling the beer that is brewed on site.
A decent selection for a football ground IMO, if true of course.

Not a beer fan, but that sounds like great news. Here's hoping for some decent cider...
Given they're going on about the ground staying open after games, showing a late KO on screens in the concourses etc, the beer choice needs to be good, otherwise that will fall flat on its arse.
Paid for my season ticket yesterday, my credit card winced when I made the transaction! Anyway, now it's becoming real. Thank goodness only one more game to go at Wembley. Keeping everything crossed for a smooth transition to our new home.
Be nice if they do a Lane brewed IPA, although a fan of Amstel and Heineken so even that would be a result.
Counting down the days now. Hoping it opens in September.... gives them approx 100 days to get it ready.
And let’s me get back from holiday!
It’s funny, part way through the season I was really enjoying going to Wembley. For the past month or so, I’m absolutely fed up of the place. It’s already sadly tired and outdated for a modern stadium. The GA areas are shocking. The sight lines are crap. For a dedicated football stadium, it’s awful. The local area is gash too. I don’t think we’ve been made to feel welcome at all, despite all the extra money we’re bringing to the local economy. I can’t wait to be back in Tottenham in a - hopefully - rocking and intimidating WHL.
