Anyone want to give Eric Pickles a nudge ?
I wouldn't. He hasn't stopped quivering since the last nudge he got and that was in 2011.

mini update from edmonton re CPO:
Spurs don't know what the decision will be yet, it's definitely not in the bag
I think you're probbaly right SS57, I think they've been treated pretty fairly after all and I'm sure the coucil will too in which case surely the council will make the case that they are being unreasonable.I really can't see Haringey letting it go, never mind Spurs. There's far too much riding on it. They've been offered a much bigger site with easier access to the A10 and North Circ as part of the compensation.
I don't think that Haringey is the issue. They're fully on board. The whole regeneration of north Tottenham depends upon the stadium going ahead. They are as desperate for this to happen as Spurs are. Maybe even more so.
Any remaining doubt that Spurs might have, I guess, is merely attributable to Eric Pickles keeping his cards close to his chest. I think it highly unlikely, though, that he would rule against Haringey and Spurs and, consequently, against investment and regeneration.
Looks about the same in this pic...
Here's the polite version. If the contract is still pre-tender, then they do not know that it will start on 5 May. That may be a target, but it is not a firm start date.
David, if I may ask a couple of questions, What does that part in the top right corner of that snippet of info mean? "Calculated £188,200,000 of private funding"....
Is that a suggestion that Joe Lewis is pumping in that fee? Or is it just a case of funding that Levy has sourced outside of club revenue?
And the dates within the info, start May this year, end May next year. I know you've already said that the dates can't be confirmed until tender is sorted, but isn't that info suggesting the stadium will be built in a year?
1 - Is that even possible?
2 - If it is possible, one would assume that'd be for the first 3 parts to be built, and then finish the stadium in the 2nd year of construction?
I don't remember when, but hasn't this come up before and some clever person noticed £188,200,000 funding showed the whole thing to most likely be bollocks (1882 being when we were founded).
God knows, mate? But the document that is pinned to the above post looks 'official', no?
Looking forward to Construction Manager 2014 - haven't seen any reviews or demo's yet but I reckon it will be the nutsI would say that the dates that are blurred out in the top right, published appears to end in a 7 (so i assume 2007), last research appears to end in a 3 (2013) and next check with a 4 (2014), and the capacity is stated as 56,250 still - have any of the rumours that we are looking at anything up to 71k been substantiated or are they just guff?
I dunno what to make of it - it kinda looks like a screenie from Football Manager that never made it into the game. Maybe they're saving it for Construction Manager or something a bit more niche.
