No sir, Reduced capacity for home games with Champions league fixtures to be played at a full capacity Wembley stadium.


Next season i believe is going to be a capped attendance at Wembley , the season after we should be in the new stadium.

Sweet, sounds good

Fair enough...what do you think would be a fee worth taking a punt for? I'd be in the 10-15m max bracket.

10-15m gets you bugger all now the tv deal has come in. £18m just got us a striker thats been good at football for 4months.

No reason whatsovever that we shouldnt be spending proper money.

Weve made a good start to the transfer window improving the squad, we need to improve the first team though and we wont do that for £10m.

To be spending £30m whilst the stadium is being built is absolutely fantastic.

29m now.

Tottenham Hotspur faced with an estimated £1m bill after trespasser climbs crane and holds 18 hour protest on new stadium site

Have I missed something? Who is being bought for 30 million? Or do you mean the 2 already brought in equals 30 million?

I think there will be a little rebalancing of the books somewhat in any case.

Mason, Bentaleb and Chadli don't have a future based on last season. Probably not Carroll either.

Bentaleb is an odd one and he looked strong and dynamic in his breakthrough season. But I think that he got injured in pre-season, lost his starting place and has been playing catch-up ever since. Whenever he has come on as sub, he's appeared to be trying too hard to impress. Probably the same can be said of Mason and obviously Pritchard never got a look in through injury.

It will depend whether people are prepared to stay and fight for their place or whether they think they would be better off moving to see more game time - Capoue, Lennon, Townsend etc.

Highlights of some goals from preseason. Some decent pressing and not a bad ball for the 3rd.

Looks like we have paid close to £30m for Nkoudou and Janssen who cost a combined £2m last summer.

Love how you are doing that but I'm really not a fan of these American looking bowl stadiums... Does nothing for the atmosphere either.. No doubt it will be great but I just prefer the English looking style stadiums

[Moominho]

If Clinton does leave, I'll feel a little sorry for him. He was very very raw. Bit like Nkoudou looks.

N'Jie also got an injury midway through the season, and he never really recovered. But despite feeling sorry for him, I understand why he'll go, we seem to have moved up a level.

I also think that we'll listen to offers for Mason, Carroll, Pritchard and possibly Bentaleb. All good players, but not sure if they are Champions League quality. I reckon Bentaleb could be given time, but he'll struggle to get ahead of Dembele/Wanyama/Dier.

I think we'll struggle to get top 4 this year. Both Manchester clubs and Chelski have spent well. And the Woolwich lot always make top 4. Plus Liverpool don't have Europe, and that makes such a difference.

Im with you. However, I hope that the huge, unbroken bank of fans behind one goal will generate plenty of atmosphere.

The "Wall" end has been designed to accommodate rail standing when legislation allows - It'll rival Dortmunds wall when fully operational.

Our new stadium is going to be superb.

The Olympic Stadium, however, with it's quality retractable seating (held together with cable ties and levelled up on concrete blocks!).....

The rake at the Olympic stadium is seriously shallow



Somewhere down there a rugby match is happening

[Mothersruin]

Football stadiums should have steeply pitched stands right on the pitch. Anyone who's sat across from the North Stand at Old Trafford will know how intimidating it can be.

A friend of mine works at the Olympic stadium at a relatively high level. (No, not in the upper tier) About 6 months ago he told me that theretractable seats were an unmitigated disaster.
