Haringey's planning permission has a limit of 16 non association football major events (ie greater than 10,000 people attending) including up to 6 music concerts per annum.

So far we have annunced :

2 x NFL matches
1 x Saracens match (5 years from 2020) - rugby
2x Rugby finals - Heineken Challenge Cup and Coral Challenge Cup finals (2021)

So 5 signed up we know of. I'd have thought we might get a music concert or two in the summer ?

Can't imagine we'll get any gigs there this summer. Surely it's too late now. Anyone touring / doing 1 off shows would have had venues booked MONTHS ago. If it's not announced by now I just can't see it happening. Wouldn't mind being proved wrong though.

Yeah, aren't Liverpool potentially looking to play at friendly at our ground or elsewhere as they have loads of concerts booked that clash?
 
Thank fuck. Unbearable thought of those scallywag fuckers roaming around our lovely new stadium. Jesus Christ it made me feel murderously angry.
It would end up looking like this after the thieving fuckers had nicked everything.

Adele might have one, to get a few bob to pay her husband off?
 
Sadly there seems to be a minority of stewards both in the stands and concorse area who think it is OK to act like a cunt and behave like a thug.


Noticed this in the Marketplace pre-game. It was loud and a good atmosphere, lots of singing. Stewards held back people coming in which you can understand cos it was rammed. But then another group of stewards turned up, physically bigger and quite clearly there to remove some individuals. Really not sure what they did to deserve to be removed, a bit of beer was being splashed around on the Allez allez chorus, but was an over reaction to remove those few supporters they did. Could have turned a bit nasty.

Quite honestly, the way this lot of stewards waded in and confronted people was over the top and it was quite sad to see, when clearly it was a party atmosphere and people were enjoying themselves.

"Party atmospheres" are very hard thing to steward, we've all seen party atmospheres turn into mass brawls with untold damage, even amongst 'friends' that shit just happens. The best way to steward it is to stop it ever getting to that level, as soon as the first signs appear, you say that beer was going air-born, go in and make a few examples. If done fast and well it won't stop the party but it will keep it under control.

As for the lads pulled out, a quick word in their ear and provided they're not smashed just let them back in ... no harm no foul.

Let it go and air-born beer landing on the wrong person, that can very quickly becomes a mass brawl ... it didn't so it appears the stewards did their job.
