Thoughts on Tottenham Chelsea Wembley groundshare from Spurs News

Tottenham Chelsea at Wembley

With work due to begin on the redevelopment of White Hart Lane in the summer of next year Spurs fans still don’t know where they will be travelling to follow their side.

A fan built Stadium – Union Berlin

A lot has been made of German football in the English media in recent years, more so following the financial machine of FC Bayern and fan owned Broussia Dortmund reaching the 2013 UEFA Champions League final. The no frills direct approach of the Bundesliga, famously known for fan owned clubs, cheap tickets and the ability to swirl down a sturdy German beer in the spectator viewing area, further backed the prestige and fanfare of the German Bundesliga. Not surprisingly, these traits of the league trickle down the league system through to the Zweite, Dritte and Regional Bundesligas. My article here covers… Read more »

Two years ago, two teams were separated by 2 divisions, now following a rapid decline, Yeovil find themselves not only in the same division as Portsmouth, but at opposite ends of the table.
