Most of the videos of the new stadium recently, have very few workers to be seen.... wtf.
Anyone would think we are resigned to not opening this season and the mad rush is over.

The alternative version is that most of the key operations were targeted to be done in time for the 15 Sept match and have been largely completed as planned. The rest of the work is mainly cosmetic or external and can proceed at a measured pace, without cramming the site with expensive extra operatives, while the key teams work on sorting out the fuck-up with the fire alarms.

What's the point in flooding the site to meet a target that has been postponed? Labour costs money and work done in a hurry generates more defects.

I'm glad he showed the ladies' loos. It's the first video I've seen of them! :)

What do you think of the yellow colour? I really don't like it myself. On a side note the reason I got the toilets filmed is because of a guy that shared a hospital ward with me for over a year, Deaglan, his company sent over thousands of toilet's for the new stadium and it was his job to make sure it happened. He's an Arsenal fan but I can forgive him as we both became very close being on the same ward and having to go through chemotherapy together. There were only three of us in that bay the other was David, he was a Liverpool fan and we used to dish out abuse to each other come match days. Unfortunately David passed last Christmas. I still really miss him and can't watch a Liverpool game now without thinking about him. He was a good man and a good friend ?

I don't like it much I have to admit. I would have preferred blue and white tbh.
Sorry to hear about your friend. We have that in common. A Liverpool supporting friend of ours died 6 years ago at far too young an age. His was a heart attack though.

Find the yellow in the toilets a bit odd. Everything regarding our building design is so classy from training ground to the lodge to most of the stadium. The yellow seems really out of place.

Well this one isn't so why not?
Can you please explain or i will also disagree with you fella
I have various vids on other sites and i wouldnt say it looked busy on those either..
Hope I'm wrong but feels like we won't be moving in soon.
Which one are you talking about - the loo’s video? The guy clearly says in the follow up that they will be connected on Monday. I guess that most of the work in that space has been done. I’d hope the club and the site management are now working to a revised and agreed schedule in the appropriate places (like wiring?)

But to answer your point, I’ll say once more that Chris Cowlin’s video clearly states that it’s busy, and that’s what I was referring to. If you wish to give me a disagree I really don’t give a monkeys - not that important to me. I don’t look at videos posted elsewhere.

Ok ‘fella’?

The longer we don't have a moving in date the more likely the PL will insist we announce we play all our remaining games at Wembley
I'm pretty sure they were flexible with us on the promise we would be in our stadium by now, not after xmas.
I think the PL will change their lenient stance with us very soon if this carries on.

The yellow is apart of our history, it was an original colour, all our old logos had yellow in it.

That was really deep and cut me up. But the yellow is shit.

Thank You buddy☺ I'm also really glad you think like me about the toilets. I can't wait until the first game of the season at the New Ground. I also hope I will be able to meet guys like your good self and all the other members and buy them a drink. Everyone on here has been amazing and I'm proud to call myself a Tottenham fan ☺?
