Taken from the minutes THFC/TST:
3.9 As regards renaming White Hart Lane station, DMC confirmed that the Club was in discussions with TFL, and that the actual station would be moved off White Hart Lane.

Daniel Levy yesterday: for a temporary basis, the new ground will be known as the “Tottenham Hotspur Stadium”.

Despite us fans continuing to refer to the new ground as 'White Hart Lane' or 'New White Hart Lane', I get the impression that with the probable re-naming of the overground station and with the named sponsorship of the stadium, it looks like the term 'White Hart Lane' is definitely in the past as far as the board goes, buried along with all those memories of the 'old place'.


For this generation and before WHL will still live but for the next onwards it won’t and will die out.

Why not? Levy is running a business, so is whoever runs Odeon. Like I said before, it's a nice romantic idea that the club are "so much more" but the whole game has been purely about business for decades now, catch up.

I suppose its down to how much the club value the '12th man'...

Good news. It needs a shake up.


Interestingly I feel like they shouldn’t have such a hard time. They are a trust and I think they’ve done as much as you could realistically expect a trust could do.

I used to go to Wimbledon games when I was younger and I witnessed that even a trust fighting gung-ho barely made a dent to the clubs decisions.
