Spurs Modify Stadium Plans

Spurs have released images of their planned new stadium to be built next to White Hart Lane. It looks a bit like a grounded flying saucer and there is a resemblance to Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium, although it is somewhat squatter to judge from the images. The capacity has been trimmed back from 60,000 to 58,000 in order to keep the fans closer to the pitch and maximise the atmosphere. The stadium area would also include a 150-room hotel (not that large by London standards) and a public square with space for street markets and performers as well as an ice rink.

The stadium project is seen as pivotal to the club’s plans to take the North London crown from Arsenal.
