Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - Licence To Stand

Good to see the club taking steps in the right direction re use of plastic
(If they can just find a way to ban the plastic fans success might bring, that would be good too). :

Club committed to phasing out single-use plastics across all Club operations.
• From opening day, our new stadium will eliminate use of plastic straws, stirrers, cutlery and all plastic disposable packaging that accompanies these items.
• All new supplier contracts will include requirement to reduce single-use plastics.
• One Hotspur membership packs to include see-through Bag for Life that will be encouraged to be used on matchdays.

As we plan for the opening of our new stadium, we have been exploring ways to ensure that products we use do not end their life with us as part of our commitment to reducing our single-use plastic footprint across Club operations.

We have sought to source more environmentally sustainable alternatives to single-use plastic and will continue to do so as part of our commitment to phasing out single-use plastics from our operations. Any new contracts which come up for tender will also include a requirement to cut single-use plastics.

As such, we shall not be stocking plastic straws, stirrers or cutlery from day one at our new stadium across all concourse areas, nor will they be wrapped in any plastic disposable packaging. In addition, no single-use plastics will be used to serve food inside our premium areas.

All our One Hotspur members will receive a Bag for Life as part of their membership packs for the 2018-19 season. The see-through Bags for Life meet our stadium security and safety requirements, meaning fans can bring their bag along on matchdays to carry all of their belongings and in-store purchases.

Those stadium visitors that are not part of our membership scheme will be able to purchase a multi-use, reusable drawstring bag from one of our retails outlets at a cost of £1.

We shall also be phasing out standard 5p carrier bags and replacing them with biodegradable alternatives, including a new see-through option for security purposes that will help to reduce queue times when entering the stadium.

Profits from the sales of any of these bags will continue to be donated to the Tottenham Hotspur Foundation.

Chairman Daniel Levy said: “As a Club we have always taken our responsibility to care for our environment seriously. We have demonstrated this with the environmentally sensitive development of our Training Centre, where we have preserved historic hedgerows and planted for the future and which will see us adding an Environmental Centre and Nature Reserve there too. Another first by the Club.

“So I am delighted that we shall now be bringing our values to the new stadium to both play our part in the reduction of single-use plastics and raise awareness of the importance of doing so.”

Each year 400 million tonnes of plastic is produced worldwide and 40 per cent of it is single-use, meaning it is used only once before being thrown away.

More than eight million tonnes of plastic enters the world's seas each year, most of it coming from land, and it can take hundreds of years for it to break down, posing significant threat to wildlife and the environment.

Shame the didn't lose the plastic that wraps every one of the 62,000 seats.

My wife ties plastic bags over my head as I masturbate wearing a pair of tights while she pours custard over her breasts and smothers me.

Plastic bags have many uses in our house.

Also if like @markysimmo you ever get caught on a train you now have some where to do your business.

Funny - she does the same for me.

And for the Band of the Welsh Guards

The above quote might well be the most off-topic piece of literary excellence I have ever witnessed in a titled-GG thread. Unless Which knows of a special "membership" at the New Lane...

Its interesting what they are doing. But I was reading an article the other day about how they are naming a bar "the Shelf" and making it look like the shelf from the old stadium. And that also they had the 1882 club.

both of those things were fan driven at the start and the club is pulling them in. I would prefer they call the new Kop end the shelf to keep that going into the future. Not just a bar!
 
I know it's probably an optical illusion but the rake of the lower tier in that 3rd photo looks rather flat
 
Love how the stadium has the illusion of changing colour during the course of the day with the sunset and various weather conditions. Absolute Beauty!

Wouldn't it be a bit odd calling the south end, the shelf side?

I'm sure the N, S and SotE stands will just get called Paxton, Park Lane and Shelf anyway
