I would like to ask all fans of Tottenham Football Club to remember like any planning and building projects these are complex processes, I would know I have been involved in some large developments through my job!
The official statement from the club reads;
********************************************************************************************
Work on the new supermarket on Northumberland Park, with commercial space above, which will be located to the north of the new stadium, has now commenced and is currently scheduled for completion within the next 18 months.
We continue to move forward with the delivery of the new stadium with the construction tender process a key next step which we will be looking to progress over the next 12 months. As always, the funding for the project remains a key determining factor and it is therefore difficult to set out the exact timing of when construction may be able to commence until the funding is fully in place
We are affording the delivery of this project the time and focus it deserves and are hopeful that the construction of the stadium, which has an estimated build of 3 years, will be able to move forward in due course.
We shall continue to keep everyone connected with the Club updated over the coming months with our progress as we make it.
********************************************************************************************
So any wealthy fan’s, please come forward and lets help get this wheel moving!
It’s as much as we were aware of, but to know that we are no further forward is at least some news. The tender is likely to have been narrowed down and in my personal opinion I feel its already decided, but the club could not state this yet.
3 years still seems a long time especially as the next tallest building in the world is expected to take 90 days! However I realise the difference in structure from a sky scrapper to a stadium.
I really hope that we can get the funding sorted ASAP so we can get this final piece of the puzzle placed.
Come on you Spurs!!!!!
