There'a a lot of lobbying going on right now to get the work started as soon as Crossrail1 is finished. Fingers crossed.
Waiting for the World Wildlife Fund appear to save the golden cockerel due to people garroting them in the wild...

The men in those excavators are worse than traffic wardens. They should be ashamed. I'd be a decent man and jack the job in before a bucket hit the turf.
I was there yesterday. The whole of old WHL was fenced off. No access to Paxton Road, or Worcester Av beyond the houses. They were smashing up the centre of the west stand.
Cool move by Levy selling the seats, if they go to landfill they cost an arm and a leg to get rid of, they are either SPECIAL, or CONTAMINATED waste, can't remenber which but either way, cost a fortune.
All eco stuff done on that site gets brownie points. The site is adjacent to Myddelton Gardens, and you have Capel Manor (grounds, the agri/horticultural college) just around the corner. I also cannot recall the last time I had a pamphlet from the local conservation gr oup thru the letterbox (they usually have something to say about the training centre plans) .
While waiting for a rail replacement bus something struck me: what will the names of the stands at WHL2 be? At this point I then had the horrible thought that the club might foolishly put the vote to the public, so we could wind up with any of the following... The Bill Nicholson Stand Standy McStandface The Keith Burkinshaw Stand The Juande Ramos Stand The Arthur Rowe Stand The ArsenalFanTV Stand The Danny Blanchflower Stand The Benedict Arnold Stand The Dave Mackay Stand The Billy Bremner's ****-Stained Underwear Stand The Pat Jennings Stand The Stand Where Andros Townsend Aimed 63,000 Shots The Glenn Hoddle Stand The Twilight Zone
Lamela's Rabona Memorial Stand Carragher (OG) Stand Henry Norris' Dicky Ticker Stand Too Drunk To Stand
We just need to upgrade. There's going to be a Michelin Starred restaurant, so........ "We're the chef side, We're the chef side, We're the chef side, Tottenham" Classy. I'll have the lobster.
