Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - Licence To Stand

I guess the thing is with a stadium, if some of the pannels are missing, or some of the landscaping isn't done, so long as they can close off areas, and its safe, as Danish says, all we need are some seats and a pitch. A roof is probably a prerequisit too.

I don't think there is much left really....

The South stand glazing (probably about a 2 week job if we dedicate the manpower to it).
The exterior panelling (another 2 week job and not actually even required in terms of the stadium being operable).
The remaining seats (could easily be done in around 2 weeks).
The roof cassettes (has looked a time consuming job so far but it only takes extra man power to accelerate. Can't see why it couldn't be completed over the next 6 to 8 weeks.
The sliding pitch. This is the only worry I have, as this is all new.
Some internal fit out (nothing challenging here)
Some completion work on the podiums around the stadium (no reason why this won't be complete by August).

Much of the above can be worked on in parallel.

Agreed. There were two big uncertainties, the roof lift and the retractable pitch. Now there is one. All the rest is just a matter of applied man-power. Apart from "acts of GHod" there seem little else to worry about.

I remember learning the project management triangle once. Time, scope and resource are the 3 variables you can adjust on a project.

For us time is fixed, so if we are struggling we have to do something with one of the other two - reduce the scope (open with reduced capacity/Park Lane unfinished) or increase resource (more manpower on site).
 
One thing's for certain, if we secretly aim for a 2019/20 opening, we'll have a completed stadium sitting (mostly) unused for at least 6-8 months surely. That will be money out the window, and I simply can't see Levy accepting that. Which is why I'm sure NWHL will be ready for next season.
 
It will be "ready to use", no doubt. It will probably take another year until it's "finished".
Where I work, we moved into a brand new building one and a half year ago. There are still workers around doing bits and pieces, especially automation.
 
I'm looking at the live feed and all I see is just people walking around. Lazy buggers.

By the way, will there be two large screens on the opposite side of the ones we see in the live feed, making it 4 total?

I hope so, otherwise when there are replays there will be the whole of the North, East(side) and West(side) staring at me, or I will be thinking that anyway and get all paranoid and run out at half time.

Yep. Two not as big screens in the corners of the north stand.
 
Just got a text message from my Dad saying "Wembley again", my immediate thought was :confused:











My next thought, ah, Exeter City.
