The day is getting closer and closer as to when Tottenham will finally be allowed to enter their new stadium and put this recent homelessness to bed.

One of the issues with new stadiums is how copacetic they feel.  They in many ways strike the obvious tune of footballs ever growing allegiance to economics over history and support. More old hallowed grounds are being turned into massive soulless bowls every day and football seems farther from the fans who make it special every single time.

The recent news though on The New White Hart lane about fan proximity is wonderful.  Apparently, Spurs supporters will be closer to the goals than they are in any other stadium in the division.  That should go a long way towards creating the sort of atmosphere that made the Old White Hart Lane such a terrible place for teams to play away at.

If besides adding extra money to the budget the new stadium is also able to increase the home advantage then it is absolutely possible that Spurs will be able to climb there way back to the top of the table in England.

The dip in form that was created by the players’ tiredness coupled with the complete embarrassment of their not knowing where they’d end up playing some home matches took it’s toll.  There’s really no way to see it other than that.

However, a heroic homecoming into what should turn out to be one of the divisions if not the world’s best stadiums is something that shouldn’t be ruled out.  Tottenham play more home matches towards the end of the season than the teams that people are suggesting they’ll compete against.

If they can use the momentum provided by the new stadium to get things moving downhill come Christmas time then there’s a good chance the side catches up.  They have the talent, soon they’ll have a home to be proud of.  They must catch up with City and Liverpool.  This is an interesting year and the throne looks to be up for the taking.  They should pip the others to it.  City and Liverpool are distracted by Champions League play while Tottenham are pretty much already out.  This presents a marvelous opportunity.  Let us hope that they take it.
