24000 members entered the lottery for the Man U game i think there was 5500 tickets up for grabs if C*mpbell had got a ticket at the cost of a Spurs fan i would not have been happy.

On the whole C*mpbell thing if any fan of any club really dosnt understand why hes hated so much by us i dont care who they follow then in my opinuin they can't be that loyal to their club or understand what being a football fan is. I dont even try and explain it or argue my case any more.

I think I read somewhere that there will be 80 guests... if there are 5 ex-managers then that leaves a lot of ex-players. Personally It's going to be great to see some of my favourites back there.... providing there is some way I can find it on TV here in Germany.

I get the feeling there will be a few 'what - why didn't he get an invite?' comments come the end of the day. It's pretty interesting to wonder who will be there and who won't get an invite. I could imagine there will be a few contentious ones.... especially out of the more recent players. Would Robbie Keane get a gig? what about Jenas or Dawson? Crouch? Defoe? What about VDV, Modric and Bale? Would Hughton get a call up - he should....

He's getting on a bit now - 82 - we don't want to put him under too much stress. Same with Greaves and the other older guys.
Although I'll make an exception for Terry Neil.
I'm so glad that the club arranged for Jimmy to come back last month, I found the pictures very moving.

We'll need some half time entertainment though, can't we invite Campbell and then have him fight Sandro gladiator style?

At least tie him to a pole and let all the legends take it in turns to boot hand grenades at him.

Did the walk in stadium tour today, one of the Spurs staff told me that after the Man U game ends they will be bringing big screens onto the pitch and showing WHL highlight reels, then there is a parade of approx 70 Spurs legends, followed by a concert til 10:30pm. He said the headliner for the concert was confirmed but was well under wraps.

If it's a big name they'd want to keep under wraps then it sounds like Adele?? Would be weird for Levy to pay whatever her fee is though.

He seemed to give a little smile when I said Adele. He also told me that once the match and after party are over the bulldozers move straight in. WHL will be flattened and gone by June :cry:.

I mean she's doing a mini-tour it appears this summer and she's already sold out Wembley four times over, I can't help thinking it'd cost an absolute fortune for her even to do a 30-minute cameo but we'll see.

I wonder if Levy has reserved a stool in Chick King to use as his office? I mean, it all fits......The bald twins in cahoots with Levy and not a follicle in sight.......

Adele? My money is on
Chas and Dave.

Remember that quite a few are there every week for corporate schmoozing, not sure if they're included in that number.

I'd love to see BMJ, he's a big part of Spurs history and a big reason why SC took off. As for players I'd love to see Lineker and Gazza, I don't recall either being back at the Lane since they left, at least as guests.

I believe the guests can bring one or two other guests so if they're included it might only be 40 ex-players[

You'd probably get good odds on Chas and Dave making an appearance, as Chas is currently undergoing treatment for cancer of the oesophagus, might be a bit early for him to hit the stage again.

Get well soon Chas (and Aaron and Greavsie)!

I think if Adele was willing to do it, and I don't think she's a fan despite what people think, she'd be saved for the opening of the new stadium rather than the closing ceremony.
