CLUB ANNOUNCEMENT – 2017/18 SEASON AT WEMBLEY CONFIRMED

[millsey]

Why not?

Whys our away record so poor If it doesn't matter where we play?

Whys our away record so poor If it doesn't matter where we play?

Do we have 90% of the crowd on our side when we play away? Which we'll have at Wembley. Do teams play different tactics home and away?

And besides we don't have a poor away record this season. We've only lost three games. We're the 5th best away team in the division at the moment and we'll be 4th if we win our game in hand.

I'd been a bit apprehensive about playing at Wembley for a while myself, mainly because of our record there, but when you think about it, this team of ours has absolutely nothing in common with the teams that have lost here in the past. I think the performance against Chelsea showed that we certainly aren't intimidated by the stadium now and we may be able to use that fear factor to our advantage next season if we get a decent start.

Sorry, the game in which we lost 4-2? I have no doubt either the occasion or stadium got to us that day

Yes, the one in which almost everyone agrees that we outplayed Chelsea.

You haven't said why you think we won't get anywhere near this season's points total yet.

Season ticket holders can buy their seats. The club are sending an email out this week.

Season Ticket Holders will receive an email next week about the opportunity to purchase their very own seat from the Lane and we have organised the donation of a number of other items from within the stadium to local sports clubs and community causes.

They'll let us know prices at the same time I suspect so that will be good to find out where we stand.

Sorry, yes that was a bit extreme. Spurs fans using 'spursy' is just a bit odd.

A snack in the mouth would probably be fairer - though I can't imagine any self respecting Spurs fan would use the term in 'real life'.

What kind of snack is on offer?

A club sandwhich?

Because we aren't playing at white hart lane next year! How simple an answer is that

Considering there are 90k seats for all PL games, you'd imagine Levy would apply a similar reduced pricing scheme as we've seen in Europe this year - to fill as many seats as pos.

If that's the case, hopefully this will include season ticket prices as well...

This has got to be the case. There is no way we will fill Wembley every game without a significant number of tickets for a fiver or a tenner. Ergo, charging normal ST prices would be both not fair and an extremely good way of generating a LOT of animosity for no sensible reason.

If there's 55k on the waiting list for tickets, surely all those will be offered one next year?

It's a craphole of a stadium, and it will be a real fight to get top four next year without WHL, but I've faith in the Poch and the boys.

On the plus side we will get rid of that Wembley record, and the boys might feel at home there finally, which could help in future semis and finals.

It's bad it's a craphole given it's so new?

Bit worried tbh as we've not played too well there.

 

[sparx100]

I am getting seriously worried about next season. If we can't turn Wembley into a fortress then our chances of a trophy disappear and the more likely our players will look elsewhere.

I'm sorry, over there you call it a sausage in the mouth.

 

[mattdefoe]

Quick question regarding our current stadium if someone could answer .. is block 46 the home or away block? I have been offered a ticket for this block for Spurs v utd but I'm sure it's the away end ?
