One thing that was good last night and that I never thought would happen, was proper singing in the bars in the Park Lane, both Goal line and on level 2. Good stuff. There were a lot of first timers last night as well which distorts the picture a bit. The stadium is a proper statement and monument though, different and far exceeds anything else I've seen or experienced. Emirates is much worse in comparison.
Good stuff @GreekRamble thank you.For comparisons sake.Do I really need to post new stadium concourse images?let alone the silver service fine dining areas?

New main stand at Anfield,2 years old now.Fully not future proofed.
At the Paddock Bar you can grab some Scouse pie, cheese and onion pie or a hot dog with drink options of coke, diet coke and fanta.
There are also hot drinks, listed as Tea, Bovril, soup, hot chocolate, cappacuno, americano, lattes.
And of course beer. Obviously!
The perfect accompaniment for a weekend at the match!
Wow is it still the 80s??
Anfields "dugout bar" for the £2,900 STHs
Etihad
But its not the offerings,choice,decor,price, once again I go back to the ability to move around an open stadium,which is down to technology and then bricks and mortar (or girders and corrugated iron in liverpool).Even with purpose built food/drink outlets with ultra modern equipment,non more so than "bottoms up" pouring,High tec POS and payment systems,all the planning ahead and spurs cannot cope with demand at present and the logistics and cost of refitting emirates,etihad to compete is immense.Forget london stadium because west ham dont own it or have a say and I doubt the tax payer will shell out more.Also forget about anfield and old trafford because 4 stands all knitted together over 40 years just isnt going to allow this to happen.
I saw another figure on tuesdays match we took £800k on beer alone.Obviously it will not hurt the revenue at spurs if other teams try and catch up with our revenue from home matches,but will help to keep the status quo of us deeper and down in 6th place for earnings,wages,financial power vs united,arsenal,city,liverpool and chelsea.
just to be clear,that £2,900 ST at Anfield is true and that is a premium hospitality area.I wasnt taking the piss.Maybe they are though.
tbh everywhere else, apart from maybe the Wanadoo stadium in Madrid, is going to look really second or third rate in comparison to our shiny new Kingdom. Levy + Architects have created a 'venue' rather than just a football stadium. The U2 sound engineers, lighting, stand raking, and closeness of seats to the pitch have all helped the atmosphere to be like a bigger WHL for the football and it certainly feels like home, just a new 5* luxury home, inside and out. But make no mistake it's a multi franchise venue under the surface to generate a huge amount of cash. Time will tell if the whole Tottenham area and community benefit or not. Might be just ENIC eh?
Damn it no spoilers !!Would you want to know now before the ending that denise targaeryn shags Jon Snow has a baby dragon and they invent CFCs to create global warming and kill all the white walkers.No you dont,but now I`ve saved you £50 on netflix.
Fuck me Gandalf's having a real melt down afternoon and turned into a horse!!
at least you didnt say donkey!! Be careful or I will turn you into a newt.
Oooooh hark at ken livingston here!!environmental laws dont stop me adding another newt now do they .
I wouldn't suggest any of the things you mentioned. I don't have a problem with anyone spending their wedged at the new Lane, I made a decision a couple of years back that none of my money would go into Levy's pocket. I hope I am wrong and the investment needed to build a strong squad will be coming soon - but he's got previous innit, so I am not holding my breath. The day of fan protests has gone, he will fill the stadium for the big games with tourists and corporates and just shut a couple of tiers for the midweek category C games, he doesn't care about proper supporters, just money - and their will be plenty of that rolling in without needing to bother about those nasty oiks that swear and make the place look untidy.
Oi, you cunts leave off the bees..... we've got an agreement. They dont sting me and I look out for them...!!!
Nah, don't like it. That £800k must be coming out of the pockets of the local businesses. If everybody eats and drinks in the stadium then N17 becomes a ghost town, I would think quite a few boozers rely on match day income to keep trading, it is tough these days. When all the local drinking establishments close down then the New Lane becomes like a fucking shopping mall, I fucking hate fucking shopping malls, they are the same, exactly the fucking same all over the world. I have been in malls in 4 continents and fuck knows how many countries and once you're inside you could be anywhere, the lack of choice is the same. Will the New Lane be like that? Yes it will, I have spoken and I am the Voice Of Reason. Or, on the other hand maybe it won't, the shiney novelty will wear off, the high prices will bite and everybody will want to go back to a proper boozer - but they will all have shut down so they will be fucked, should have listened to me, soppy cunts.Spurs are generating a staggering £800,000 in revenue at each home game with an endless choice of suites, restaurants, bars and street-food outlets on stadium concourses.Spurs are eating at top table because they generate £800k per game in their restaurants alone
THEY are having the rest of the Premier League for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Tottenham, four wins on the spin at their glamorous new home, are serving up something special off the field. Spurs a…www.thesun.co.uk
Based on 19 Premier League games and a minimum of three Champions League group matches, that is an additional income of £17.6million.
To put those sales into perspective, elsewhere Premier League leaders Manchester City admit they do well to bring in £150,000 a game from hospitality at the Etihad.
This correspondent can report that the establishments outside the ground are doing a roaring trade at present. Pubs, bars,restaurants and cafes are all full. It’s a win win so far.....
I am pleased, but I wonder where that £800k is coming from, maybe it's magic unicorn Brexit money?
25,000 ‘new’ fans.....there are a lot of kids coming as well with Mums or Dads. Levy’s master stroke is pricing the booze correctly, not ripping people off.
Oh get a room with Danny will you? Levy not ripping people off is one of them oxi-doodahs.
Ha ha ha yeah fair comment, I’m missing the bigger picture there!!
