Tottenham released a statement confirming that our Premier League game against Arsenal on 2nd March would be played at Wembley and not at our new stadium.

The release added that work on the safety systems are close to completion and the next step would be testing the fire detection and alarm systems, and the integration of these with other systems.

The chairman, Daniel Levy, thanked the supporters for their patience, and the statement added that there would be further updates in due time.

“Once again, thank you all for bearing with us and for the great support we have received from so many different quarters. These next few weeks are pivotal.”

Tottenham haven’t really been in bad form despite not playing at their new home. Wembley hasn’t always had the same feeling as White Hart Lane, however, we lie just five points behind Manchester City and Liverpool.

Spurs play both these teams away in the remaining games and there is more than a chance of us usurping them. The pair has dropped points unexpectedly this season, and this should give us more hope for the remainder of the campaign.

We should be boosted by the returns of Harry Kane and Dele Alli in the coming weeks, so things are looking good for us.
