Tottenham Hotspur fans have an exciting season to look forward to, with new manager Thomas Frank set to lead the club into the Champions League.
As reigning Europa League champions, Tottenham have qualified for Europe’s premier club competition despite their poor domestic campaign in 2024/25.
In addition, Thomas Frank has a great record in the Premier League, which means there are high hopes that Spurs will have a better domestic campaign next time round.
According to Alasdair Gold, everyone who has met Frank so far has been very impressed, claiming he’s a very detailed manager who is a good character too.
Now, Tottenham fans have expressed their delight at some off-the-pitch news which many feel has been long overdue.
Tottenham fans buzzing over return of the Bill Nicholson Gates
On Wednesday, Tottenham’s media team announced that the famous Bill Nicholson Gates would be installed at their new stadium.
The Bill Nicholson Gates stood proudly in front of White Hart Lane for generations, but have been kept in storage since 2015.
Now, they will be coming home, with Tottenham announcing they would be reinstated at the stadium in the coming weeks.
Fans are delighted with the news, with one writing on X: “Absolutely love this decision and post!
“Was only thinking about these the other day and shame they can’t be upheld, due to size of the stadium etc.
“Will be great to see them again & bring back so much nostalgia.”
Another supporter said: “Those were the days! Best manager in the history of the club.”
The praise kept coming, with one fan saying: “About time something I kept contacting the club over glad we are getting them back.”
Another wrote: “I know we’re all waiting for a big signing, but this is amazing. Thank you.”
One felt it was long overdue, saying: “Like a new signing well done only took 5 years to bring a set of old gates back.”
Another said: “Gates are a portal! The spirit of our players shall return!! COYS.”
Where the Bill Nicholson Gates will be located at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
Tottenham confirmed on their official website that, after working in close consultation with the Fan Advisory Board, the gates would be installed within PAXTON17, between the Ticket Office and historic buildings at the north of the stadium.
Spurs also said enabling works have now commenced with a view to the gates being in position ahead of the club’s first home Premier League match of the season against Burnley on Saturday 16 August.
‘The gates will provide a fantastic photo opportunity for fans on matchdays and a key point of local interest – forming part of our Heritage Tour that offers fans and visitors an in-depth journey through the Club and the area’s storied past, architectural gems and the remarkable individuals who have shaped its legacy,’ the Tottenham media team added.
