New Stadium Details And Discussions

Sceptical that standard article is true. Why would the PL change their stance.

Presumably it's a good thing that the Palace and Brighton games will be moved back as it gives us more time.

#thfc There's good news & bad news. Poch says Harry Kane is "nearly ready to play" & could be fit for Burnley on 23/2. But he also says his gut feeling is that it will be "tough" for Spurs to play in the new stadium this season...

Poch says in the PC that his gut feeling is we won't move in this season

Meltdown!

I do think the club's plans for getting in fans before the game to meet up, socialise, have a couple before taking their seats is a good idea though. Bringing a part of the match day experience in house is clever. Although i do hope that places like the Antwerp Arms etc don't lose too much business either.

The question is whether they keep pints at £4 a go, quite a lot of the wholesale prices on hops etc have gone up recently.

I think the last part is the crucial part. By all accounts the bar facilities etc. are top notch but if they want people to drink in the stadium before the match and hang around afterwards, they need to make the beers cheap. If they're charging extortionate stadium-style prices for beers and food then their plan will fail miserably.

He also said Levy told him we'd be in before Christmas, so.....

They haven’t changed their stance they just didn’t expect it to drag on for this long therefore the goal posts have changed. (Although unfortunately they haven’t literally changed)

Selective quotes. He also said this...

Spurs have done well at Wembley?
Did you see the last few games? 30k there, I expect to move and I want to play in front of 60k, not 30.
I want the 60k to help me achieve the three points and I think for the fans it will be a massive boost and impact and that will translate to the team. The people are disappointed, we all love Wembley, it’s only because we expect to already play at our new stadium.
It will be massive to play the last five there. I hope that happens and you know very well Always I believe that it can be positive to move to the new stadium.

From what I saw they were around £4.50 per pint. This would be broadly the same as The Antwerp. 50p per pint won’t also make a huge difference. All about quality and surroundings.

With 25,000 extra souls every game I'd hope there'd be enough to go round.

Could be that he's expected to move in multiple times by now so he's prepared for the worst?!
He was certain before Xmas, and it sounded like he was told it was likely then, so he's probably resigned to not moving in this season until it is 100% happening.

Nice to hear some more clarity on the situation from Poch.

Indeed it would be.

He can't give you what he doesn't have

Why not call it the Park Lane Shelf?

Call it the Yid Wall - that should really wind some people up!

 

[Lighty64]

If I receive a discount, and therefore am being refunded a discount, why am I therefore not being offered the seat back at a discount too?

Didn’t you get an option to use the seat you had last season?

I also believe if a member was to buy the seat your sitting in at games it would be more expensive. I think all tickets are dearer this season than they where last due to the club having to pay more to rent Wembley. If they had gone down the route of 2 seasons, and been quoted the same price and capacities this season like last, the price would of been the same.

Though the other way to look at it, no one is being classed as a ST holder until we move back

Amstel £4 pint was showing on price list during the south stand event
