Tottenham Announce Name Of New Stadium… And Fans Think It Is Very Boring by timtunday: 9:14pm On Jul 27, 2018 |
Spurs have announced two test events ahead of Liverpool's visit for the 62,000-seater stadium's first Premier League game on September 15 SPURS have revealed their new ground is called ‘Tottenham Hotspur Stadium’ – a decision quickly mocked on social media. The club have announced two test events ahead of Liverpool’s visit for the 62,000-seater stadium’s first Premier League game on September 15. Spurs fans have many reasons to feel chuffed with their new £850million home — not least because it has its very own MICROBREWERY.
