Spurs have had to face up to the fact that the expansion of White Hart Lane is unlikely to go ahead because of continuing problems over transport links and infrastructure. A new stadium elsewhere has been considered in the past, but the now the club is reported to be considering a ground share with north London rivals Arsenal. It is, however, only though to be an option if Arsenal's Ashburton Grove plan does not go ahead. One possibility would be a joint approach to share Wembley, well away from the traditional homes of both clubs. Another possibility would be an Olympic Stadium if London succeeds in its bid for the 2012 Olympic Games. More realistic might be an attempt to find an entirely new site which the two clubs could share on an equal footing. However, it is also possible that a threat to leave White Hart Lane might help to build support for their plans to increase their capacity there from 36,000 to 48,000.
