At a guess I’d say we’d make more from the Arsenal game being at Wembley than at new stadium. Gate receipts would probably be £1.5m more minus the rent payment.

I had trouble believing rhinos could speak but at least I now believe they can type.

Not jealous whatsoever. Nope. Not one bit. Don't even care, mate.
PS. Have a great time, and please get some pics (can never view too many).

We've lost 4 this season at Wembley (Liverpool, City, United and Wolves).

No one is going to want this to end up in court, but it wouldn't surprise me if that's where it ends up. The sums of money that will be claimed will be very large. The number of parties between whom liability will be batted back and forth will be several: THFC, Mace, several subcontractors, whoever designed and specified the alarm system and perhaps one or more of the manufacturers. The law covering liquidated damages is a minefield of successive, often contradictory precedents. The liquidated damages clauses in a construction management contract can be non-standard, compared to a conventional building contract. Some of the parties who might be apportioned some or all of the liability could be driven out of business by the size of the claim, if they hold insufficient liability cover. They'll all contest liability vigorously.
All of these factors will make a commercial settlement difficult, which will make it more likely for it to be settled through litigation, which would take years and could cost more than the claim itself.
The only certainty here is that lawyers will get richer.
Late completion isn't really insurable and, if it were, cover would be swingeingly expensive, because the risk of late completion is so likely to crystallise on any given contract. Developers tend to flatter themselves that things won't go wrong on their contract, so they would be reluctant to pay for an expensive insurance policy when there is already a liquidated damages clause.
That may be what s/he means, but it's wrong. Every match at Wembley costs the club money, compared to playing at home, for reasons I have listed several times, most recently yesterday.

Almost certainly not the case. Even if you assume we'd get 85k at Wembley which is far from certain, prices at the new ground at 30-40% higher which already more than covers that, we get to keep the money from food and drink sales, we don't have to pay rent, and we get huge revenue from the corporate sections.

Does this have something to do with the required tests and paperwork at Haringey Council moving along nicely?

So the game against Palace in March would have been the first game if both us and Palace had knocked each other out in the 4th round game!?
(The in the know speaks) I would like to know why people like you come onto a spurs fans site its not that it bothers me but I would like to know why an obvious non spurs man chooses to go onto a spurs site .You would be quite at home on the Harry Hotspur site.

Heard a whisper from a friend at the club, usually pretty good and has been pretty good at dashing my hopes previously so fingers crossed

There are lists of reasons why he wouldn't do this on the previous 2 or 3 pages. Why don't you try reading about what is happening, instead of coming on here and just barking out your "opinion" without any attempt to engage in a discussion.

No if one was knocked out in the 4th round and the other in the 5th round
