Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - Licence To Stand

[scaramanga]

If the new stadium is going to be known as "The AIG Experience" or something equally tacoty, can't we call the stand "The Lane"?

That way we can still sing "We are Tottenham...." etc.

That is the best suggestion I have heard so far.

Surely that's the most obvious answer, it doesn't matter what the club call their premises or the media, it's what we the fans call it. I'll always say I'm going up the Lane whatever they call it.

Absolutely spot on. I am sure 1000's will think the same. Whether it becomes the Nike Arena, the Coco-Cola Stadium,Qatar Airways Stadium,etc; the majority of us will still say 'Off to the Lane this Saturday/Sunday'

 

[Rorschach]

Are we not discussing the name of the 'kop' stand rather than the name of the new stadium?

I think the stadium will always be the lane to most if not all, unless they name the new stand the lane too and then there will be confusion. It might even eventually mean fans stop calling the stadium WHL so that reason I think it is a bad idea to call the new stand the lane or some variant.

 

[We are Tottenham]

Geographically...we're even nearer to WHL..
We're WHL and allways will be........CoySpurs

 

[We are Tottenham]

"The Shelf" seems to be the most obvious choice to me... help link the new place with the history of the old.

Shelf= East Stand and myself as an old fan will still be on the Shelf side...

As long as there's a Paul Mahorn Lounge in the new stadium, I'll be a happy ending chap.

It is a good suggestion but won't naming rights sponsors want no association (in terms of names) with old ground?

 

[billyiddo]

It'll be named after Bill Nicholson I'd have thought (the single tier end)

I'm not sure the sponsors have any control of what we call the stand!

Till anyone who's grown up with WHL is dead. Then it'll be "off to the Duracel Plus Extra Life"

Oh I thought we were talking the official name of the stand, I came to thread late.
