New Stadium Details And Discussions

[Lilbaz]

You just reminded me, I have what is gonna sound like a dumb shit question and probably is lol.
Pitch sprinklers. When they go back down how are they not dangerously close to the surface without leaving a hole?
Just last night I was watching a PL Review show and there was a close up shot of one that had a tuft of grass on top about 1 or 2" thick at most.

Let the piss taking commence lol.
But seriously.... How?

Fyi. I'm a HVAC engineer lol.

You're going to make me research pitch sprinklers now.

Why can't people just have a question, google the answer and then post it?

Thats what you're for

Just watched 3 videos on youtube that didn't give an answer. But gary has done wonders in his backyard.

If you can tell me why we won't
finish the roof - labor
Install all the seats - labor
Finish the floodlights - labor
Clad the south stand - labor
and put in the turnstyles - labor
by mid August I'd appreciate it because as I see it thats all you need to stage a game/test event.

Naturally, I hope I'm drastically wrong. I believe the cut off date for reapplication of Wembley for some games next year is the end of May.

Randoom speculation, but could the wembley rumours just be for the cl group stages?

We'd only have to play our first 4 games away and would give us a little wriggle room.

Random? From your perspective or others?

 

[Derryank]

None of those were on top of the existing footprint of the old stadium.

The due date isn't unreasonable at all. The pitch and roof will probably be done by the end of June and people will wonder what they got all worked up about. It's moving at an incredible pace.

Sandro... we'll know next week. The due date will be unreasonable if we can't make schedule

Random speculation on my part.

Not suggesting it is likely. Just throwing it out there. Never know?

The Wanda Metropolitano was WAY behind where we are at this point and they played their first match there in mid September. Definitely not unreasonable.

very impressive

ITK, ITK Igot fucking itk lads! It's shit but it's still itk.
The contractors for the stewarding and catering and cleaning will be told next month when to start.

Yeah baby. Eyes on me. I want a million likes and a twitter account.

You wouldn’t have time to write on a twitter account! Oh and thanks for the info

Cheers Lilbaz, I'd hope they will be told to be ready for August whatever happens.

Labour is no problem as we have the whole of Europe to recruit from but I must ask, what information do you have on the Labour situation that makes you think we don't have enough for the job?

The mother-in-law has applied for stewarding so when she finds out will try to post on here

you're forgetting shortage of materials from suppliers ??

 

[Gb160]

Not gonna lie - If I were a Spurs player, I would be talking non-stop to opponents about how dangerous the seams are in the new pitch. Just give them one more thing to worry about...

Yeah, 'one of the youth lads lost a finger' kind of thing.

 

[coys200]

Cut off is next Friday. Have to inform PL by then. Not sure if that’s CL as well.

 

[Lighty64]

Yes. Here in the States, there have been multiple old stadiums demolished and rebuilds on the existing site. To this scale and magnitude and deadline of the NWHL, it's an arduous task with an unreasonable due date for the middle of August is my opinion.

What are your thoughts?

ok to be honest looking at it now I have my worries that it will be finished, and I know nothing about construction (to be honest I don't know much about anything)

but when you look at where we were near the end of last June, I kind of have hope that if we can get from this
http://www.spurscommunity.co.uk/ind...adium-details-and-discussions.38802/page-1202
in 9 months, I'm sure with the way they are working we will be very close in the next 2½

 

[Lighty64]

We saw photos of tiling being fitted in toilets at least two months ago. You don't hang tiles unless the first and second fix plumbing are both finished. Same with the kitchens.

I've not seen a single photo of the interior that would suggest to me that the build is more than three months from completion. People are basing their wild predictions on the state of the roof and the cladding. Which is code for "no fucking idea", in either direction.

I reiterate what I wrote at least twice earlier in the thread. You can't judge the progress of a build this complex based on exterior photos. You need to do a tour of the stadium site with a copy of the detailed programme in your hands. Everyone who is opining about whether the stadium will be late or on time is talking through their backside, unless they have reliable inside information originating from Mace.

If we get to a fortnight from the completion date and there are still major operations visibly uncompleted, then we can conclude that the build is running late. But not now, based on exterior photos.

oh shit I shouldn't of posted that last post
