Spurs, Chelsea and two very different stadiums | The Spurs Report

About The Spurs Report. Spurs, Chelsea and two very different stadiums. Chelsea moved closer to joining London’s 60,000 club on Wednesday night after Hammersmith and Fulham councillors approved plans for their extraordinary new stadium. Ultimately, the Herzog de Meuron design. And the loss of housing and hotel rooms. Chelsea have work to do before construction can begin: Mayoral and other consents are required, agreement is needed with Chelsea Pitch Owners, the fan group that owns the Stamford Bridge fre...

About The Spurs Report. The beauty of the blog is the ability to write all types of articles. With football, much is immediate — it’s an emotional game, especially with a team like Spurs who don’t half put you through the ringer. But I am also interested in the business of football, where important information can go unnoticed, or not fully understood. Chelsea’s Stamford Bridge Redevelopment — Trying to keep the train on the tracks. A transitional year on the field was reflected in the accounts. Afte...

About The Spurs Report. Examining the rising costs of Tottenham’s 800m stadium. Brexit to blame as Spurs stadium costs double. Screamed the headlines this week, as it emerged the cost of the club’s new home has increased to an estimated 800m. The eye-watering figure sparked concern among fans over the impact of the project on the club’s long-term financial future. In this piece, I will look at the 800m figure and the reasons why costs have increased so sharply. Understandably, the project cost has increa...

About The Spurs Report. Deep Dive: Chelsea’s Stamford Bridge redevelopment — Trying to keep the train on the tracks. London is in the middle of a stadium arms race. Next season, West Ham will join Arsenal in playing at a 60,000 seater venue, while the new White Hart Lane, capacity 61,000, is finally starting to emerge from the ground and will be a world-class home for Spurs. I have written extensively about the new Spurs stadium. To achieve a bigger stadium, Chelsea’s architects have drawn up innovative ...

About The Spurs Report. A review of 2016 on The Spurs Report — numbers, analysis, top posts and thanks. As 2016 draws to a close, I wanted to do a quick post summing up the year on The Spurs Report. It’s been quite a year, with new people stumbling upon this curious little corner of the Spurs blogosphere every day. This time a year ago, I had around 300 Twitter followers — it’s now over 3,400. Again, it’s nothing compared to the bigger beasts, but growing a readership is hard without influentia...Thank y...

A new generation of Spurs fans craves FA Cup glory | The Spurs Report
https://thespursreport.wordpress.com/2017/01/09/a-new-generation-of-spurs-fans-craves-fa-cup-glory
About The Spurs Report. A new generation of Spurs fans craves FA Cup glory. The trademark magic was in short supply in the FA Cup third round. Weakened teams, poorly chosen televised games, sparse crowds and an unexciting set of match-ups meant for an uninspired weekend of football. Spurs summed it up with a laboured victory over a defensive Aston Villa side that came for a 0-0, and for 70 minutes looked like they might get one. Early football memories are snapshots, fleeting moments preserved for eterni...
