Pah - nothing not heard here.

David Tossell, Public Affaire, NFL on talksport.

Deal with Spurs in addition to Wembley. Adding to the games at Wembley.
To judge interest. Maybe franchise in the future after US see how popular.
Not prepared to talk about deal - Spurs not a charity!
Vision etc shown by Spurs - purpose built.
Multi functional.
In theory football Saturday, 24 hours later NFL.
Roll on roll off pitch.
Thanks and goodbye.
Took me longer to type this than interview!!

I liked the original design, but this trumps it and then some.

I'm flying back to UK on Sunday and will be going balls out to get involved on the project.

2018 can't come soon enough.

Wot, you gonna turn up at the stadium with a spanner..."wanna hand guys?!"

Now that there is affordable housing back in the scheme, I feel the same way. They ought to have someone on board to do the specialist financial modelling, to advise on detailed design and to negotiate with affordable housing providers. I suppose they'll probably farm it out to one of the big central London property agents: Savills, Jones Lang Lasalle, etc. [sigh].

Believe they are already working with Lasalle.

I know some people will be sad but I really am pleased they are getting rid of the other three old buildings, Warmington house is staying but is a little further along so doesn't cause the same problem as they do.
I'm over the moon Brian.
Interesting that those buildings are now pinch points so any objections would have safety repurcussions, clever that.

More seats than any team bar United.

Biggest screens in a UK stadium.

Biggest single tier stand, specially for home supporters.

You can walk on the mutha fucking roof.

Retractable artifical pitch, the most advanced in the world to host NFL games.

You wanna climb? Nope? Nor do I, but we built you the biggest climbing wall in Europe anyway. BECAUSE.

Drop mic.
I hate to be the miserable git but I don't think that list will be true once the stadium is built.

Liverpool currently expanded to their first phase of 53k this summer.

Man City are expanding to 54k at the moment in their current phase

Whilst Chelsea are currently expanding to 60k but this may increase as they are only at the conceptual design stage.

Also the largest single tier may actually go to West Ham, it isn't a single tier but they claim it is. Their single tier is actually behind or opposite the dugout instead of behind the goal. But it isnt a single teir.

However don't be surprised if Man City and Liverpool all have stadiums than us before the stadium is finished

Before I spontaneously combust, is there a good chance the council will reject our revised planning applications considering the severity of the amendments compared to previous?

Judging by the comments from Boris, I'd say there's two hopes of that...

Bob Hope and no hope.

I notice that they are now looking to remove 3 of the 4 heritage buildings, that were originally going to be kept under the request of English Heritage:



So they are citing the lack of pavement as a primary reason for this - @davidmatzdorf what's your take on this? - do you think English Heritage will agree to it?

IMO English Heritage were pretty inflexible in the first planning approval process. I think Levy needs to give EH reasons to back down gracefully - and what better way is for EH to decide that the 3 buildings are actually a safety hazard. Worst case is that the buildings are removed from site and re-built in a 'heritage' site for tourists, perhaps with the pub re-opening to serve thirsty tourists !

Are you always negative?
