This maybe fairly old news and you boys have probably seen this but The Times are reporting that after getting positive feedback from Mace, we’ll be having 2 test events next month and our 1st home game will likely be against Palace on March the 16th.
Surely we can schedule in those test events closer to the end of this month.

It is highly likely that the police will not allow us to open with Arsenal, so the next home game after would be Palace.

By the way, our Wembley attendance has risen from 51,000 to 62,000

Not a suprise at all unless you really believe those who claim this or that,oh look tottenham vs arsenal is on the site as tottenham hotspur stadium,well I never.I truly believe that word will be out before it is announced,old bill,london transport,security/stewards/all other staff starting work,exisiting employees at the club,staff at Mace,haringey council so on and so on,this isnt the 40s hiding D Day from ze germans,its full on access all areas internet,media recording,reporting,there will be a huge din before THFC tell us officially.But if you want to believe superfans however well intentioned or ITK who are as accurate as The Sun actually less than the Sun,or bloke in a taxi,overheard in a restaurant then fine but logically all these rumours have never added up.So far!!

That old bloke in the taxi swore to me on his grandfather's life That we would be in by Palace.

lol
my point i guess is there would be so many comments all leading to the same thing,pretty much if any one person except levy says that, its 99% bollocks,until its a crescendo, Its people either posting from their heart or being gullible.
I just read the mail headline "tottenham to announce new stadium in march",click what it says is,tottenham wont play at NWHL in feb after announcing such,possibly the first game could be arsenal or Palace.Genius how did they work that out??When its time nearly every source will say the same thing because it wont simply be guessing
Right now reading between the lines,things are still yet to be installed,they then need testing,then building control sign offs are needed and then they will announce the 2 test events.You would hope the club can apply for a safety cert before having to schedule the 1st game?Or Levy would want to be 120% dead certain nothing can delay after we announce,I think that makes NLD a deffo no no even if met police are up for a bit of overtime,Palace??if we dont announce test events dates before feb,i would say that would be a longshot too.

FFS. Just open the fucking gates and play.
I just cannot wait for the club to get in another stadium that I won't ever have the time nor money to visit regularly.

Tottenham stadium: How Premier League teams have fared at a new home
Tottenham could finally move into their new stadium in March - but will there be a negative impact on their results when they eventually do leave their temporary Wembley home? It has been reported the first game at the rebuilt White Hart Lane could be against Crystal Palace on 16 March; that would mean Spurs playing their final five home Premier League fixtures of the season at their new ground, with the title race approaching its climax.
Yet Cardiff manager Neil Warnock - with his eye on the relegation battle - reckons it will give visiting teams an advantage as Spurs may struggle to adjust.
Is Warnock right? Should Spurs fear a new stadium slump?
We've crunched the numbers to find out.
Home struggles
West Ham were the most recent Premier League team to move stadium, relocating from Upton Park to London Stadium before the 2016-17 season.
Their difficulties have been well documented. The team struggled to adjust on the pitch and the intense atmosphere from their old ground was not replicated.
The Hammers were the fourth Premier League club to move to a new stadium since 2000, following on from Southampton, Manchester City and Arsenal.
The Saints moved from The Dell to St Mary's in 2001, City moved from Maine Road to Etihad Stadium (originally known as the City of Manchester Stadium) and Arsenal moved from Highbury to Emirates Stadium in 2006.
All four teams won fewer home points in their first season at their new ground than in their final season at their old ground.
West Ham and Southampton suffered the most, both winning nine points fewer in their first season at their new home.
The overall impact
The dropped points at home had a wider impact on the full season.
Of the four Premier League teams to move stadium since 2000, only Arsenal had a better overall points total in the season after the move compared with the previous season.
West Ham were 17 points worse off, Manchester City 10 and Southampton seven.
Unsurprisingly, fewer points means a worse final league position.
West Ham, Manchester City and Southampton all dropped in the league table in their first season at a new stadium.
City finished seven places worse off after falling from ninth to 16th.
Southampton only dropped one place from 10th to 11th - although they were bottom after 12 games, following a difficult start.
West Ham came seventh in their final campaign at Upton Park but only managed 11th the following season.
Arsenal are the only exception. They finished fourth in their final season at Highbury and did so again in their debut campaign at the Emirates.
A slow start
West Ham are the only one of the four teams to win their first game at their new stadium.
They beat Bournemouth 1-0 in August 2016.
Southampton lost their opening game at St Mary's while Manchester City and Arsenal both drew.
The results suggest Southampton, City and Arsenal all took time to adjust to their new home before improving in the second half of the season.
Southampton lost four and drew one of their first five league games at St Mary's while City only won two of their first 13 games at Etihad Stadium.
Even Arsenal, who finished the season fourth, only won four of their first nine games at the Emirates.

Clearly the way forward now is to expect to be in by the start of next season, then anything else is a potential bonus depending on your viewpoint.

Wow.... look at his body language. Lying his fucking arse off.
Look at how much, when and how long he blinks. It's a small clip to assume he wasnt acting like this the whole time but I call bullshit.

That seems more of a feasible, rational response.... compare that video to the first one.... its light and fucking day.there`s another clip from same event,its where he says extra income is beneficial to everything connected to the club

I think he is being evasive in both,just the 1st video it comes across as an outright untruth given circumstances now.Can see why he hasnt faced up to his public and has communicated in statement only and not on camera.Maybe he just has a smarmy face like G W Bush?he always looked like he was lying or about to smile at some awful news.

Yeah, and to be fair, that's a perfectly rational point as well... the stadium isn't the be all and end all of the financial situation. It's fair enough.
First clip though, just clear lying... looks away, the blinking the way he repeats himself, and accidentally saying the veiled truth... honestly, couldn't be more clear, if you asked me...
Though obviously I'm not an expert, so what do I know
