Tottenham Hotspurs fans may have been expecting to be playing in their new 62,000 stadium by now.

But delays in completing the project that's now costing somewhere in the line of €950 million means Spurs' players won't be gracing the new ground for another couple of months at least.

It's a move that Tottenham hope will push them to the next level commercially with expanded gate receipts, for one, after leaving their long-time White Hart Lane home.

A few of the lads from the Off The Ball office have been regular visitors to the old Lane and Spurs' temporary Wembley home.

So, John Duggan, Simon Maguire and James Hopper joined me on this week's Team 33 to share their memories of the old ground and their thoughts on the switch to the new Tottenham Stadium.

And fair play to James for picking the most Spurs centric room in his house and John for bringing in the jersey.
