Spurs’ new stadium

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...anchester-City-clash-construction-delays.html
Plan C ruled out as it would mean we would play 4 of our last 5 games away from home.
If we remain in the league cup, we have only got two dates free in the calendar when we can play this game and the second one is NOT acceptable. See below:

If they can't play the game allowing our normal number of away fans to see it then it has to be forfeited.
 
I have just spent twenty minutes reading articles about the stadium. More convinced than ever they won’t play there at all this season. We won’t be playing there in October. That is absolutely certain.

Also nothing more certain than he fact that this project will end up in adjudication.
They briefly mentioned something about it on that debate show on sky sports,basically that it may not be ready till next season..
 
The FA should order them to play at Enfield Town for taking the piss.
 
The Daily Mail article is also suggesting that Spurs are asking UEFA for an away game in the Champions League for the first game, as preparations for Wembley will be needed for the NFL that week. Same issue will apply in Matchday 3.

Based on tv audiences, I expect United and Liverpool to be one TV pairing, and us and Spurs are the other. That would mean our fixtures would mirror Spurs' and we would be home Matchday 1 and 3.

If UEFA agree to Spurs' request, then I think we'll likely have the following fixtures.

Home
Away
Home
Away
Away
Home
 
We can't - see fixture list above
They definitely can postpone it, we'll just be dead against that option so it'll be one of the last resorts. If they can't find another solution then we'll just have to get on with it. No different to if it was postponed for weather etc.
