Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - Licence To Stand

No. The old design, which was scrapped 8 years ago was. This one, no. It's impossible! The entire structure has to be up to be able to attach the tension and compression rings that hold the roof.
Ok thanks, my bad. Taking that into account and the retractable pitch it does seem impossible. I wouldn't want us to move into 3/4 anyway. It would be like getting your dream car but with only 4 gears.
 
The pitch areas for WHL and NWHL don't overlap by a small margin but the nature of the retractable pitch construction means that WHL has to be demolished for the construction to continue as planned. Staying at WHL for another season would throw such a huge spanner in the works that I don't think it's a legitimate plan B to be honest.

I've been following the build progress with keen interest over on another forum and completely agree with what Bullet has said above. I would also be gobsmacked if the confirmation of the move to Wembley doesn't come after the expected approval of the request for the extra 90k capacity matches on March 23.
Welcome aboard Canberra!

More like you getting your dream car but someone has taken an angle grinder to the boot and there's no roof. And the floor is temporary.
 
I doubt Levy gave it much thought. He's quite a whimsical, vain chap, prone to lavish spending sprees with no calculations

I doubt even Daniel would have seen the current Brexit train coming down the tracks at such a breakneck pace.

But my dream car DID have 4 gears!

I wonder whether Network Rail will continually carry on shutting Northumberland Park down on match days when we have 60k in our new ground, it's bad enough when it's shut at WHL with 30k
