Ready and finished are very different things, building work can be ongoing but the ground could be ready and capable of hosting matches

Makes sense. New Season, New stadium,

We are used to Wembley Stadium. New WHL would be new and might take time getting used to it

 

[Hoopspur]

I presume the 1 or 2 players will be to replace Moose and maybe 1 other if we have squad spaces. So many rumours flying round that I wouldn't presume to point at any particular player. Just hope it's a position we ultimately really need - short term but certainly long term.

That’s one way to make sure Poch is here next season! He’s always said he will open the new stadium with Spurs!

 

[Dr Know]

Am I the only one happy with the stadium move news? I was worried about the effect this could have on our game. I'm really happy with not making this move at such a crucial time in our season

Disappointed but agree with you.

Is not at the part of the season that moving in will bring excitement for anyone TBH.

 

[glacierSpurs]

Heads should roll at the contractors.

The delays are ridiculous IMHO. Those contractors will know their fates after completion I'm sure..

 

[easley91]

Expected the stadium news. Club should have just announced the rest of season at Wembley already to be honest, that way no more disappoint for now.

 

[The Lion]

Regarding the stadium news, I've seen lots of worrying about the added costs that the delay will impose on the team, but surely the team purchased an insurance policy to cover costs related to a delayed move in. I can't imagine someone like Levy wouldn't have done that? Has the club ever discussed that / anyone asked the club whether they took out such a policy and for how much?

 

[JCRD]

Are we paying 10m to get him off our books? Good deal.

 

[g_harry]

Is it any wonder the club failed to attract a sponsor for it? I guess one will be found this summer.

It's gonna be Nike. The front entrance design is the give away and the fact we have signed to Nike shirt deal for 15years. It won't be announced until it's finished, no sponser would want to be associated with an unfinished stadium.

 

[nailsy]

What a strange season this is turning into. There's so much negatively surrounding the stadium and our transfers, but we've been in the top four for most of the season, we're through to the group stage of the champions League and we're in a cup semifinal.

 

[Hakkz]

Did people seriously think we would be playing in the new stadium this season after all the date-changing that has been going on?

 

[Mackan110]

So now itk say we can sign 1 maybe 2 players. This isn't good for my heart, I really want to get a good player in but at same time think it will be a shitty one

Also sad about the stadium update...

 

[Insomnia]

The Goat is hearing that we won’t be in the stadium this season. Also that we will sign players. We are in for 2, confident of None

fyp

 

[wirE]

I think it’s become quite clear that the stadium aren’t gonna happen this season.

Two potential signings is great news. Any word on who?

 

[Haddock]

Regarding the stadium. It has literally been written on the wall (..pun intended) for months.

 

[The Mourneview Ace]

No shock on the stadium and tbh a lot of the pundits who have been talking about it for so long have had a point. The club should make an announcement sooner rather than later to clarify the situation because it hasn’t been good enough.

 

[Paolo10]

Hasn't 2019 been fucking amazing so far? Only 2 decent signings might make up for the latest stadium ITK.
