Levy wouldn't talk about our current/new manager, not until after one has been sacked/hired, nor should he IMO or else he could open the club up to a world of legal hurt.

Yeah that's pretty obvious. The point is that yesterday, for a change in recent weeks, Spurs fans had something positive to read about in the newspaper or on BBC/Sky. Whilst none of it was really news it suspended us fans talking about the team and Sherwood. Coincidence?

I think you're reading a bit much into it personally. Considering there's not much longer left in the season, when do you reckon would be a more appropriate time for this stadium update?

There's nothing to stop us talking about both topics, although that's pretty obvious too.

Leinstersqspur is spot on, all timed to take the attention off us being a laughing stock

It's certainly a possibility and not one I'd quickly disregard but I guess we'll never really know if there's anything to it at all, it's all opinions at the end of the day.

Your right, we'll probably never know. As for opinions, sure that's why we're all here!

Maybe one day Daniel will sign up on boards and set us all straight.:D

Without a doubt.

I think you'll find Spurs announce a financial report every season along with a statement from Daniel Levy. Notice a mention of the stadium last season aswell.

http://m.bbc.com/sport/football/21152143

My point before was people were whinging and moaning about the lack of public statements from Levy regarding the stadium and anything else related to the club. A statement is given to coincide with the financial report and people find ways to complain about that too.

Regardless of where we were in the table this report would have been released in the second half of the season.

Looks like the Compulsory Purchase Order has got the green light...

Great news. Would love to be doing the surveying on it!

Moving in to the new stadium in 2017/18 is "highly unlikely".

The two companies that won't budge are appealing the Compulsory Purchase Order, which means this could roll on and on and on and on.

The club is now saying that moving to another ground for a season is a must, if we want the stadium built asap.

Anyone got any decent suggestions for a stadium for one season?

I've hear the MK Dons stadium being mentioned - 30,500 seater. Might be a bit of a pain in the hole to get tow from Stanstead...

Sorry for being negative but has anything changed?
Still no start date/finish date.
Confirmed we will have to move out for a season ,we all knew this already.

Getting the CPOs were a big step forward, though these appeals (even though anticipated) are a big step back. This could roll on for years.

Levy needs to get the rioters out again, the last one he organised was pretty successful - from a club perspective.

Was thinking the Olympic stadium until I realised that Leyton Orient would go absolutely crazy if that happened.

Wembley is being talked about but there is more stadiums that are already ruled out than potential sites for the season.

Hardly a new low.... the last time Levy wanted to gain control of North London he started a riot over the killing of a black guy by police and most of the area around WHL burnt down.

Decision on final land purchase to be announced in High Court this morning at 09:30. Sky Sports News are covering it. Big day!

All 3 grounds for appeal from archway rejected. Looks like the compulsory order will be going ahead and we'll be set to build.

As a side note, judge dove stated that Spurs owners have proven the financial viability of the project both with the funds being instantly available to commence the £400m development and the ability to repay the money without the necessity for European football (like our neighbours).

I must say at the moment this seems like a big win for ENIC and we could potentially be looking at a new stadium afterall.

Great news for everyone associated with the club. Exciting times.

irishmover · 20-02-2015 12:56pm

And confirmed that Archway cannot appeal any further. Full time lads. Nothing standing in the way of the stadium now.

On the left you have the newly built THFC offices, on the far right the old stadium and in the middle the building site for the new stadium (and Archway Sheet Metal Works).

Technically they can appeal but even the judge said there's no point...

"Archway, the owners of the last remaining land to be acquired for the stadium site, requested permission to appeal the judgment and this was refused by Mr Justice Dove who concluded that an appeal had no reasonable prospect of success. Archway now have 21 days in which to apply to the Court of Appeal."
