Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - Licence To Stand

[Bedfordspurs]

what’s the view of the pitch like from there?

No one has ever used it for matchday
When I’ve spoken to staff about it they said it’s used as a quick way to move across the stadium for staff

The Sky Bridge was the idea of the architects Populous not Levy, when they presented it in the original plans to Levy he liked the idea but it has proved to be bit of a gimmick. Problem is when it's windy the whole roof flexes up and down so the Sky Bridge moves with it, described as like being on a train in motion. A walk on the Sky Bridge is included in the 3 hour + technical tour of the stadium which starts at £120 but I doubt it will get used for anything else.

The sky bridge isn’t attached to the roof
Where’s did you get this info from?

Never been up there but you probably would have a near vertical view of the north goal , spectacular but is it ideal for watching a match.

Clearly states in the book on the stadium build that the Sky Bridge is suspended from the roof , certainly attached to the roof support struts, the Sky Bridge in the north stand.

A few extra seats won't do much for revenue anyway unless it's corporate. 5,000 extra seats sold at £80 for 23 games is £9.2m - not nothing but would also raise our matchday costs as well.

You are right, no need to increase capacity for increased revenue just convert existing seats for premium use, the north stand mid tier is designed to be converted if needed as shown in the original stadium plans.

Zero mention of any expansion possibilities in the book "Destination Tottenham" which specifically deals with the stadium construction. The only way to possibly extend any stand is to remove the roof, it's cable net construction would mean the whole lot would have to be removed, two seasons at Wembley anyone , no thank you.

I reckon they could suspend some seats from the cabling in both the north and south stands, getting in and out and facilities would be a challenge though.

Or remove the roof panels , reckon you get get a few more fans on the support struts.
