New Tottenham stadium: Little Britain star Matt Lucas mocks Spurs over delays to new home

Little Britain star and Arsenal fan Matt Lucas has mocked Tottenham's new stadium woes.

Spurs were originally set to move into their new 62,062-seater home for the start of the 2018-19 season but multiple setbacks have left them at Wembley until the turn of the year.

A contingency plan is in place to remain at the national stadium for the remainder of the season, though Spurs hope to move back to north London before then.

Rival fans have been revelling in the stadium setbacks. Advertising Standards contacted Tottenham after an Arsenal supporter complained about the club's claim that the new stadium would be the only place in watch Champions League football in London. All group games were moved to Wembley in September.

Now celebrity fans are getting in on the act, with Lucas posted a short video of the Colosseum in Rome with the caption "Tottenham ground almost done".

He quickly clarified that the video is not his own, having received it on WhatsApp.

Fellow fans replied in kind.
