Seems very odd, as looking at the interactive stadium view, there must only be around 1000-1500 unsold seats left and the match is still over 2 weeks away. COYS

As a proud member of the West lower (hey! someone has to sit there) I can confirm that we have some quality banter. Also we universally dislike Walker and our half time bagels are better than yours.
We're the West stand, we're the west stand, we're the west stand TOTTENHAM
West Stand till I die!
Oh and I also forgot to mention that we get to sit next to the rich South Korean tourists and see the shiny cars as we walk in. 'Nuff said.

You'd rather they go unsold I guess?
I'd much rather see all the seats taken by any means necessary, rather than sacrifice a full house over some twisted sense of pride.

The acid test of the hardcore support at whl is when an opposing player falls over in front of the stands and the crowd reactions, which are usually:
West stand - take photo, grin, grin at person in next seat, look horrified. Sip coffee
Park lane - cheer and then have a sing song
East stand - stand up, give wanker sign, shout ' get up you fucking wankah'
North stand - no reaction. Carry on moaning at enic

Need to add - 'whilst eating prawn sandwiches'.

I was in block 53 for many years
When I first started going the west stand enclosure was were all the older spurs went and they always started the loud coys that went around the ground.Donkey jackets Doc Martin's and beards...hard lads.
Remember a game against man utd and its the only time I stood there 76/77 lost 3-1.Got in for nothing as I was with the London Irish girl pipers best mate was in the band.
There were people coming out of the park lane on stretchers.

"Enclosure, do your job!
Enclosure,enclosure, do your job!"
I remember that song as a kid
Not at all, I'm embarrassed by our support and the 41,000 on the ST waiting list that are supposedly gagging to go to games. It's only £25!
Yes, not selling out to the League leaders Leicester at home in the FA cup when we have so many "fans" on the waiting list and having to advertise it on the radio is embarrassing IMO. That's what West Ham do. However we are running a business and I would do the same. How we are going to fill a 61,000 stadium when we can't fill 36,000 is beyond me. We obviously have different opinions on this which is fine by me.

Most of the stadium is sold out - those blocks that haven't, have less than about 10 seats left in each, with more than 2 weeks to go until the match. There'll be 35,000+ at the game, no doubt.
EDIT - Next three Premier League games:
Spurs v Norwich:
Spurs v Leicester:
Spurs v Sunderland:
I don't quite understand what there is to be embarrassed about, to be honest..

It'd be nice if we could find an alternative way of showing the stadium sold out other than colouring the fucking thing red.

All this talk about are we going to sell out the 61k... Actually, if we were to sell out the 61k immediately for average PL matches, then we'd have designed the stadium too small! Questions would be asked, 'Why didn't we go for 70/75k?'
The stadium needs to be big enough to give us room to grow, and while it might prompt some mocking from opposition fans, having empty seats from the start is a very good way of future-proofing the stadium. Especially if the design and pricing structure is such that the empty seats will naturally end up in the less prominent areas of the ground.

If safe-standing comes to fruition it'll rise to 64-65k just through changing the single tier stand.
