Default London Assembly report on Match Day Travel to Spurs etc.

Some believe it would help keep the football club at White Hart Lane
amid continuing speculation it is eyeing a move to a new, larger-
capacity stadium and also help regenerate one of London's most
deprived wards.

Justin Hinchcliffe, chairman of Tottenham Conservatives and a Spurs
fan, said: "Not only is Spurs a much-loved local club, it's a major
employer in the area. Spurs may stay if their fans can easily get to
the stadium on match days."



Typical overprivileged nitpicking Spurs fans - don't know they're born.

White Hart Lane station is not far from the Stadium, and there are another
three or four rail and tube stations within feasible walking distance.

Try going somewhere like Stoke or Coventry or Shrewsbury, where the ground
is miles away from any kind of railway service, on a regular basis.
