Tottenham should play at Wembley for the rest of the season, claims Simon Jordan, amid further delays to the new stadium
Tottenham should suck up the ridicule and play at Wembley for the rest of the season, according to former Crystal Palace chairman Simon Jordan.Delays to the redeveloped White Hart Lane have continued after the club announced they will play four more fixtures at the national stadium.It is the latest in a long string of setbacks to the new ground, which was supposed to open way back in September, and reports suggest it will not be ready until mid-March.However, Jordan believes moving to the new stadium during this campaign would now risk derailing Tottenhams fine season.3

Tottenham’s new stadium was due to open in September 2018

If they do [play in the new stadium this season], it would be a foolish thing to do, Jordan told talkSPORT host Jim White.There are where they are right now: theyre 50% through the season, theyre in a successful season for a variety of reasons.

Confirmed Tottenham fixtures to be played at Wembley

13/01: Manchester United (Premier League)30/01: Watford (Premier League)02/02: Newcastle (Premier League)10/02: Leicester (Premier League)13/02: Borussia Dortmund (Champions League)Theyre performing well in the Premier League, the cups and the Champions League.Clearly there are reasons behind this that were not entirely privy to. We had issues back at the beginning of the season when they were talking about alarm testing and the final phases.3

Tottenham may not be able to move into their new stadium until mid-March

Now, four months after the event, this should be done and dusted.The idea of getting it open for the beginning of the season was a really tall order for them and they should just draw a line under it.Take the pain now, take the ridicule thats going to come out because there will be segments of the media and their own fans that say its not good enough.3

The club have confirmed four more fixtures to be played at Wembley

But they are building a phenomenal stadium. I would just draw a line under it now and say: well play there next year.Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has apologised for the latest delay and promised further updates within the next three weeks.A statement read: I should like to apologise to our fans and thank you for your continued patience. The response from those who attended the familiarisation event was great to hear and reinforced our commitment to deliver an exceptional matchday experience for everyone. We shall now seek clarity in respect of building test schedules and test event dates and provide further information on these in the next two to three weeks.Tottenham may be forced to wait until after the north London derby against Arsenal at the beginning of March before they open the arena, due to safety concerns.
