Good news if we manage to keep Walker as there's a better chance some of his crosses will stay in play.

I can't imagine the new stadium will have a pitch the same size as WHL. It could be a good chance to get used to a larger pitch. If we can play well on a larger pitch, we may have a better chance against other teams with larger pitches.

Hoping we get a few pre season games on it and start training on a pitch with the same size so we get more use to it,and then there shouldn't be any the pitch is too big excuses.

The article is abit misleading. We don't want to match Wembley with our old WHL pitch size. We want to match it to our new stadium dimensions, which are the UEFA standard, and that wont be an issue.

Surely there's a pitch at Hotspur Way that can be used (or else make one).

the issues we've had a wembley are about the quality of the pitch not the size. If we can get that sorted for our games then no problem.

I wonder if we are allowed to use our own groundsmen while at Wembley?
I hope so they did a fantastic job at WHL.
