Tottenham Hotspur have asked the company that tried to block their new £800 million stadium – Archway Sheet Metal – to make the time capsule to commemorate White Hart Lane.

As part of the events planned to mark Tottenham’s departure from White Hart Lane after the final home game of the season against Manchester United on May 14, the club announced a time capsule will be buried at a point of overlap between the old and new stadia.

Spurs are in the process of deciding what exactly will be put in the time capsule, but have offered the contract to design and make it to Archway Steel.
