Spurs' new ground will hold 61,000 supporters, making it the biggest stadium in London ahead of Arsenal and Chelsea

Cant argue with the ambition and the new home stand sounds fantastic but can we just start building the bloody thing.

Are Wembley and Twickenham not in London?

No. I had them forcibly ejected.

I just hope we can fill it week in and week out.

Is it too early to write to Levy begging for one of the seats in the single tier stand?

I couldn't agree more. Waiting for Christmas as a six-year-old was nothing compared to the impatience I experience reading about the new stadium. I know the amount of red tape is huge in these cases, but the delays we've had to face here is ridiculous. I wouldn't be surprised if Chelski can get their applications through in time to finish their renewed stadium at the same time despite just beginning the process. Roll on 2018, hopefully with a season of homegames at Wembley (with or without sharing with Chelski).

Looks impressive, and long overdue. Perhaps the Archway legal case was a blessing in disguise.. we now have a much better stadium than the one proposed in 2007 / 2008. I hope Upper East Stand Block D will still be there, lol.

We are building the bloody thing. Big hole in the ground. £50m contract for the substructure and superstructure signed ages ago.

It's difficult to get much further than that when we have only just applied for a revised planning consent. We don't want to be spending money on any bits of construction that might yet be changed.

The ideal size for a stadium is not what you can fill for every match. That would be too small. The ideal size is what you can fill for most matches.

The marginal costs of an extra few thousand seats aren't that much, compared to the nearly-fixed costs of building a big stadium. So you make it as big as you can, even if that means that it won't be full every time.

Aren't Chelsea expanding Stamford Bridge to 62 thousands or something of the like? Wouldn't surprise me if they waited to see what our capacity was then make their ground slightly bigger.

Make up for their microdicks at least. "Yeah, we're hung like squirrels but haha, 62K you mugs!"

Extend it all they want, it will still be a shit hole .

well there's one extra season ticket this way please!

A stadium expansion you can fill is a bad expansion IMO

Looks like a whale. I like it

That's going to be fucking awesome

I think they need to build sufficient room for Mourinho's head, plus all the extra drainage for his egotistical bile.
