New Stadium Details And Discussions

[RichieS]

Did Cornelius Knob get banned in the end?

 

[Flashspur]

You would think so otherwise he would be all over the site like a rash. Probably still in denial the stadium exists.

Maybe we all just put him on ignore and he's still ranting away to himself.

Coming along very nicely. No doubt that it will be on time.

some bits from n17 bishop on ssc ,taken from multiple posts so a bit messy:

Back at spurs today after a year out for back to work interview.
Loads of interesting facts coming out of talks.

Some non sensitive stuff I don’t think has been mention:

Actually officially reducing closest fan distance to pitch going from approx 7m to 5m

Light will be reflected/projected from blow into sky so stadium will be seen from all four corners of London.

Away end just as furnished as all Home GA areas.

All GA areas furnished to a standard better than any Corp area at Wembley.

More to follow....

With regards to pitch distance. Basically the official distance was 7 meters but now will be 5. No specifics as such apart from it was clubs official fan distance.

on 5m distance on all 4 stands, can it be changed this late?: Yes, I know. This point was emphasised as it was an example of small unrealised detail that will set stadium apart from all others.

A common misconception is that a bigger stadium automaticAlly equaled a bigger distance from pitch but they wanted to break that trend and do the opposite. Never been done before.

I personally think furnishing the ga to above Wembley Corp standards and even replicating that in the away end is genius.

They basically want even visiting supporters to be envious directly.

Two more tit bits.

- west stand reception will have a LED wall display the entire length of the atrium. It won’t b a white wall as depicted in render. This is a late design addition apparently.

Away GA areas will/can be mood lighted using programmable led lights to the visiting teams colours.

I don’t know details but I imagine a couple of led’s pointing up on each column will do the trick. Not my expertise.

There are a good few renders not made public that I saw especially of sky walk. Unfortunately I was not in a position to take a cheeky snap.

Also confirmed 360o walking access to all ga areas regardless of where your sitting. Only exception is if away visitor occupy all three tiers of Northeast corner which I believe is only certain cup games.

Another fact that I think we have already picked up on on here is that most stand rakes are at the maximum legal limit. Exception being the South.


this was today. I was not shown around the stadium so i suspect your friend was there in some other capacity. Probably in a higher capacity.

What was clear though is that they have started from scratch regarding customer experience. The whole mentality has/will be changed.

There will be NO venue (and i used the word venue as opposed to football stadium) in Europe that will better NWHL for overall experience. Very few to compete in the world. Even non sports venues!

As mentioned earlier, the GA area furnishing and offerings pledge/quote was telling!
the point is our GA will match/beat most other stadiums premium areas and in their words "including club Wembley". I've never been club Wembley so cant comment but i'm assuming they meant its current state.

Suffice to say, you can easily begin to see how the cost of this build has rocketed outside the obvious stuff.

 

[tiger666]

I think this will be the first ever stadium to give me an erection.

 

[LukaKranjcar]

This place is gonna be the tits when it's all finished. I'm so excited for it.

 

[gilzeantheking]

This Stadium is going to be truly special. I wonder what Cornelius Knob makes of this latest ITK.

If you’re gonna do it do it big!

I’m well past that stage, I’ve lost count

Ally signing new contract ?

 

[Lilbaz]

Hope that ifo is accurate. Sounds great.

We know for the training ground that levy loves the fine details and isn't afraid to spend extra to get it perfect. Just hope it all comes together right.

 

[Lilbaz]

As long as the fans are a bit above the pitch they could get the uefa sized billboards in. Then you have another 4m for the flaps and pitch edging. Can't see why it can't be done. Although there are probably good reasons it isn't.

I dunno.

think they will play with the same pitch size as Wembley which means 2m longer than what they intended
