Brief History Tottenham Hotspur F.C. moved to White Hart Lane in 1899, and the first game was played on the September of that year resulting in a 4-1 home win against Notts County. 5000 were there to witness the victory. By 1923 the ground could host 50,000 covered spectators overlooked by a copper cockerel (the club mascot) that still keeps an eye on proceedings from the roof of the East Stand. 1953 saw the introduction of floodlights (which were then renovated again in the 1970's) and by the end of the 1980's both West and East Stands were in their present state. The 1990's saw the completion of the South Stand and the introduction of the first Jumbotron video screen. The renovation of the Members' Stand was completed in 1996 leaving the ground in its present state. External Links
