you'd be suprised how many people keep their feelings to themselves in order not to be ridiculed.

I bet if Mabbutt, Lineker, Ginola, Jurgen and a few others said it would be a good idea, the rest will follow.


They probably will soon, especially after mr tottenham Alan Brazil has backed stratford..:rofl::rofl:

You must think spurs fans fell out of a tree or something:roll:

WE ARE TOTTENHAM...FROM THE LANE.....FUCK OFF STRATFORD...

I'm pretty sure the club was founded in Tottenham, and it's is located in Tottenham.

Anyway, why are these Tottenham-haters convinced moving to the Olympic Stadium is finally going see us win the title? Because I don't see it.

This is why, in the future clubs will have to fund player wages based on a percentage of revenue. Any team with a smaller stadium will be at an immediate disadvantage as their revenue will be restricted in comparisson to a club with a larger stadium. And to make up the difference in shirt sales etc will take a mamoth effort and result is a mechandising club.

On a completely unrelated topic, what does your milkman look like? :)

(I'm only trying to disguise my own fears of Ginger rugrats :-( )

we've moved 5 times and we still have the same milkman... :cry: bitch

By the time this had all been decided Stratford city will have been completed, the whole area will have changed ,euro link etc for our champions league exploits :wink: .Liverpool st to Strafford will be 8 mins you'll be able to drop the wife of and then go to the game and never be dragged around lakeside again . a load of bars will be built much like old dome 02 arena has :beer:.
I work for the firm which has been involved in the whole of the village and Westfield and it looking pretty good.
Now it could turn out that the stadium will be a sole less place or the most rejuvenated vibrant ground/area in England at the end of the day it’ll be down to us how we take on the challenge and accept change .
I have never lived in Tottenham and have travelled from either Battersea in my youthful days and east London in the later years so apart from the ground I have no real link to the area of affinity but do understand the need to belong so I’m in two minds on what we should do the logical business mind is to move .the other is can I put up with the morons giving me jip I suppose I can ,as we have had that for god knows how long .
If it means I can turn around to them and say treble winners in such and such years then I’m all for it ,I very much doubt I’ll be able to say that if we stay in the lane which is a shame but a rolling stone gathers no moss.
I’m not sure I convinced myself though.:shrug::bang:

Think about how many supporters we'll lose moving to Stratford. Look at Wimbledon when they moved to MK. I honestly think they'll be thousands and thousands of empty seats nearly every game. In some games the stadium won't even be half full, i.e. 40,000. That would have a huge impact on the revenue. The NPD, I'm certain nearly every game will be sold out, and in general our stadium revenue will be higher. The NDP must happen.

I really do feel strongly about this, if we move to Stratford, I think I would lose nearly all my love for football. Tottenham Hotspur are one the reasons football is so special to me. Moving to Stratford, would be the end of Tottenham Hotspur and that start of Stratford Hotspur, it would crush me. 100 years down the line from then, the world will have forgotten about Tottenham Hotspur.

How can you compare a 5 mile journey with a 100 mile round trip? Who said anything about changing the name? Its the same heritage, history team, players and fans but a different stadium. The world will not end. Spurs will march on.

mate youve lost the plot....

we are a WORLD brand, we have over 1million supporters in the uk alone....we have 30k on the season ticket waiting list etc, etc...

you honestly think we will lose people for the sake of moving 4.9 miles?????????

not a chance, if we even lost 1000 morons id be gobsmacked!

btw...we will NEVER be called anything else other than tottenham hotspur, we simply have to many devote fans worldwide for it ever to happen....

remember 1990??....the midland bank should have liquidated us, no doubt about it we owed them the earth in todays money...but they didnt!

why?....because nobody had the balls to shut such a big club down & have the wrath of so many fans directed at them....much the same as liverpool, they would NEVER be shut down ever!!

we WONT change our name!!

point is it would be the end of days for anyone who ever tried to change our name from tottenham hotspur football club. nobody would have the guts to even mute the possibility.

Kish, I can understand the attachment to the area, but I just think that it'd be best for the club to move. Sure we'd get ribbed as gypos etc... but unless someone strikes oil in Tottenham the area will continue to suffer until it is so dire & cheap that the whole area is redeveloped (see most large cities and the cyclical nature of decline and regeneration). The trouble is now it is still worth too much to regenerate but not worth enough to attract investors. No investors means little income and limited local labour and taxation.

The real insult to the redevelopment of WHL is the money TFL want to fix up the station. they get extra revenue from travelling fans using their services and instead of reinvesting have paid shareholders and bonuses etc... and now want Spurs to fund the upgrade when it is within their charter. Its bare faced cheek

Some fans will leave. You can bet you life on it. They feel that strongly about this.

But please mate come on. PLease don't call them morons beacuse of their passion for our club and our "home". They might not agree with you, but they are certainly not morons.

We all support the same club. Well, we all do for now anyway!

Any think of the close ties we could foster with Orient. We could send our reserves and youth there to get serious game time to build them up

Whats West Ham got to do with Stratford anyway? West ham have their roots in Dagenham dont they? Infact, one of the reasons my great grandad diddnt support them, was because they were considered a country side club. Also, how manny of the population of Stratford, do you think supports West Ham? I think that, that part, is a non issue to some extent.
