Spurs fans used today’s vital match with Manchester United to begin their protests against the clubs possible move to the Olympic Stadium in Stratford. Fans chanted ‘say no to Stratford, North London is ours’ throughout the first half.
It was at half time though when the protests got really loud. As you will see from the picture below one fan in the Park Lane end climbed up and put his banner up into the TV studio.
Things are going well for Tottenham at the moment, but rumblings of disquiet at the proposed move have turned to proper protest, and it will only gain momentum.
Update: As pointed out in the comments feed, the banner wielding fan on the Sky box was indeed female, not male as originally posted. She was not arrested for her actions, but has been banned from White Hart Lane for the next three games.
