Guest neesy111 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 It needs improving, facilities wise it's poor compared to what the other big clubs can offer. Having to knock down a shopping mall and few other things for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 All these new class stadiums being built/ upgraded is a bit grim IMO. Losing the individuality and uniqueness of the historic stadiums they're replacing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slim Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Presume food/beer is ridiculously expensive at the New White Heart Ground? No there is a Microbrewery from Beavertown for £5 pint. Really good value for London. And £5 for pint piss at SJP https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/tottenham-hotspur-team-up-with-beavertown-to-create-worlds-first-microbrewery-in-a-football-stadium-a3851201.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 I don't like it either, but it's common place all over the world. Esp if there is land available to get it done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely gutted to hear the news about the San Siro aswell And I bet people said the same thing years ago when their club got a new stadium or were upgrading the old one too. These new stadiums will in some years become "unique" as well, until they need upgrading and old farts will start complaining again that their club is losing its soul.

Kanji Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Would you sell the naming rights to your stadium if it gave you a 20-30m player a season? Or funded a training ground in 1 year? Paid for renovation of SJP? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid for renovation of SJP? We've been down this road before. I might be tempted if our owner wasn't Mike Ashley. Ashley being owner means the stadium would be named after one of his brands and the club itself wont see a penny. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 imagine what Rafa would do with the stadium development and training facilities if he stayed and we had a better and an ambitious owner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Would you sell the naming rights to your stadium if it gave you a 20-30m player a season? Or funded a training ground in 1 year? Paid for renovation of SJP? Yeah. It's a shame, but that's the nature of the game at the elite level now, and ultimately it's a reasonable price to pay to remain competitive. You don't lose the heritage all of a sudden and those who matter would still call it SJP. Obviously, the scenario you've described isn't what was happening when the stadium was renamed the Sports Direct Arena. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I think we lose our right to whinge about what a commercial non-entity we've become (in comparison to the teams we were close to prior to Ashley's arrival) if we're vehement against massive commercial opportunities like stadium name rights. Not that that opportunity exists, of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
