I haven't seen one single thing refer to it as such. Seems to be "The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium" is the name of choice for the club. Certainly until they can find a sponsor. Just not bothered...

Guest Grez Bez Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Great pics Kivo Had no idea Brentford were moving; knew they discussed it years ago but had not seen anything. That Tottenham stadium is superb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaping Lannys Perm Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Obviously a bit early to tell but the Brentford ground looks like it could be interesting. Should at least please the anti 'souless bowl' brigade. The size difference between the stands looks significant. You could compare it to Leeds or Bradford but looks like an even bigger disparity. Kind of reminds me of those few seasons that away fans were housed in the very top of the new stand at Wolves. So weird looking down at the roof of the other stands.

Good to see clubs moving away from the traditional concrete bowl stadium look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A multi purpose stadium has got to make sense for them.

'if you are not part of the future, you are only part of the past which means you will be history' I understand the reasons for it, but my grandparents live in York and as a kid I used to go to Bootham with my Grandad when he was still with us, so the old ground has some special memories for me.

NYCOWL Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Because I did most of my away days in the 80s and 90s, I'm in the rather odd position of having been to a lot of the original grounds and very few of the new ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it will be nice and easy to access! Oh and zero room for expansion or development. Very odd. Where is it? Just not bothered... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
