Default New Tottenham Hotspur stadium....

No. Among other things, the fact that the depot is on the wrong side of the
level crossing was considered an issue.http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/futu.../location.html


Thanks.

That's a little disappointing, as (as I mentioned before) I find
getting in and out of WHL to be pretty crap and to build a bigger
ground wouldn't help that.... Hoped this would be a great opportunity
for something radical to be proposed to sort it all out.

Interesting that Northumberland Park is denied since it's on the wrong
side of the train line, given if they're expecting to use
Northumberland Park heavily, then people still have to cross the
railway line to get the train to L'pool St. Also, having come out of
Wigan's 10 year old stadium a few weeks back and having to cross the
neighbouring canal via one small (pitifully inadequate) bridge with
25000 others to get back into the town, it seems strange that they'd
not think that something that COULD make a big difference to getting
people out with tunnels or bridges. Anyway....!
