SPURS fans are still waiting for news on where the football club will play home games in years to come.

Last year Spurs chairman Daniel Levy famously promised an announcement on the club's plans in the 'first quarter' of 2008.

We are now in October and still no statement has been made.

However, behind the scenes, the club has continued to purchase land and buildings around its current White Hart Lane stadium, suggesting that Levy has set his heart on redeveloping the 36,500-capacity arena.

The club has also been linked with a possible move to the Olympic stadium in Stratford after the 2012 Games, but has since distanced itself from reports.

The club's executive director Paul Barber recently told Goal.com: "We are on the lookout to increase our capacity. The real challenge for us now is that we have 23,500 season ticket holders, close to 100,000 members – and almost 21,000 people on our season ticket waiting list. But only 250 people give up their season tickets at the end of the season. So, it could be an 80 year wait for some people – that’s a whole lifetime.

"For now, we are working hard to develop our new training complex at Enfield for our academy and the first team as well. The work is just beginning and it’s expected to be complete in around two years or so."

The stumbling block for the Spurs board appears to be where the club will play home games during any redevelopment or whether or not it can remain at White Hart Lane during the work.

West Ham United's Upton Park and even Milton Keynes Dons Stadium:MK have both been mentioned as possible venues for one season.

Speaking on the future of the Olympic stadium, Mayor of London Boris Johnson said: "If we had a serious offer from a big Premier League football club then of course we'd look at it.

"At the moment that is not the case.

"That doesn't mean we are not looking at the football options, we are looking at all options.

"And we are having all sorts of talks but we've got to prepare ourselves for the possibility we'll have to go away and get on with some other permutation."

However Spurs are believed to have rejected the chance to move into the 80,000-capacity stadium because the club does not want a running track around the pitch and believes the stadium is too close to fierce rivals West Ham.
