It would be an amazing tribute to The Lane if we won the League in the old stadium. Beautiful no?

Imagine we won it during our away year.
The superstition level would be at 11.

Will Spurs be brought.... etc.
Er.....briefly.....no.

Can't see Deli Alli and Mauricio's Mauraders
lying awake at night sweating on the new stadium.
Focus, focus, focus.
Not only can we win the league in our last season at WHL
but follow it up with a win in our first at The New WHL.

These things are cyclical and we have a decade or more
to make our mark, or rather, remake our mark.

Obviously haven't read the article, never do.
Mail, Mirror Telegraph no go areas.

What new stadium saga?

Think they just mean that it's a new saga in the future of the club.
Probably the incorrect use of the word really.

Not sure about this.
If you read the Stadium thread it has elements of
Greek tragedy, Shakespearean comedy as well as the Nordic sagas.
Ask davidmatzdorf, he had hair when this all started.

Agreed. It doesn't have to be a "saga"...unless the local Council make it into one (and so far, I'm not so sure it won't turn out that way.)

The words 'local council' and 'saga' go together like 'corrupt', 'incompetent' and 'bureaucrat'.

Reports i heard was somewhere between £50 and £60m originally. We have bought more land and are building a 500 seater stand and a new player accomodation block so it wouldn't suprise me if the total was now £70m.

Good to see that Sam Wallace is able to write about things other than hagiographies about Sherwood. Sadly for him, he remains a writer of fiction. He's a very poor man's Jonathan Liew.

I think they mean the 'new stadium' saga. Not sure though, I haven't read the article nor opened the link

haha, he's really, really bad. On Twitter every weekend he's going on about haircuts, manager's suits/jackets and this week it was Chelsea vs Spurs face masks.. tiresome bore.

I don't see how this 'saga', which is hardly a big deal anyway, has any impact on the team. Team and club are very different. The financing is already sort of secured through bank loans - in that they are ready to step in to support the project even if a partner isn't announced. I thought we already knew this?! why is he going on about uncertainty? if it's uncertain, someone better inform the construction firms currently working on site.
