I think one test will be non football maybe a concert. Would presume they’d want to test NFL pitch as well.

Test events could simply be a training session one for spurs and one for an nfl team if they are over here.

lets be positive. ONE game at Wembley vs Foolham.

Club has said we get credit on 1/19 on the season ticket.

Hopefully we will have a sell out crowd and smash our own Prem attendance record! With Chels ground on hold it's a record we might hold for a very long time?!

Scallys at home for our first competitve match at the new WHL is excellent too, Cardiff or Huddersfield would have been disappointing by comparison.

As a comparison - for the Emirates the 1st test was a shareholder open day. 2nd was an open training session for 30k. And the third was Bergkamp's testimonial at full capacity. I imagine ours will be similar.

Interesting, cheers for that.

First test event is August 5th, so two weeks before first game.
2nd one is 18th/19th August, same weekend as the Fulham Wembley game.
3rd one is 25th/26th August, same weekend as United away.
4th one is 1st/2nd September, same weekend as Watford away.

I can't imagine the second one being a screening of the game as no-one will turn up at Wembley and if it's the day before or after the game it would have to be a light training session. Perhaps more likely a non-football event.

Our premier league attendence record is 83,222. We're not going to break it.

Strange question... My ex bought me one of those (I'm assuming) novelty shares that comes with a certificate etc. Does anyone know if a) it's a novelty and worth sod all, and b) would this grant me entry to a test event, should it be a shareholders thing? ? That nonsense could finally come in handy

Arsenal's was of course in the summer, not during the season. I'd imagine it's pretty likely some of the events could be some youth matches or Spurs Ladies?

Spurs Ladies is exactly what I was thinking - would be a great way for the club to boost interest in the ladies team as I'm sure lots of folk who aren't usually interested in them would be keen to access the test event. I'm also quite sure once the TV fixtures are announced the 2/3/4th events will be arranged so they are on opposite days to the first team's matches.

I really don't want to schlep across to Wembley again:(, I thought that was all done until the next cup final.
Maybe I'll go if we make it a farewell party.

Yeah I ve got one of those, they're not novelties as such, I get sent the detailed financials every year, it's like a phone book full of documents I don't understand.

God knows if that would get us entry to a shareholders only type thing though.

Personally I think the season ticket refund for Fulham was sensible by the club. Although I had a ticket last year truth be told that I used the ticket exchange more than I expected because of the inconvenience of the journey, especially for evening games. I really don't want to schlep back to Wembley again, not because I necessarily disliked it as a venue but because I've done my season there and am ready to come home.

So first game at the new white hart lane looking for two injuries time goals, one an OG from Lovren which Kane claims and gets, a second a highly disputed penalty following a blatant dive from Dele which Kane puts away, and a shoulder injury for Salah.

Woooooooow, really ???

Chelsea's new stadium would have no effect anyway. They can only fit 60k into their restricted site.

I don't think there was another way to do it. The card systems at Wembley and NWHL won't be compatible, so the new STs wouldn't work at the Wembley turnstiles.

I always made the trip to Wembley a tasty one , on the way back through Marylebone station I'd stop at the very good patisserie on the concourse and take home a lovely cream gateau , always seemed to make the journey worthwhile.

I'm sure they could've issued paper tickets. I figure the real issue would be people demanding they had last year's seat or people wanting seats based on where they are sitting in NWHL.
