NFL reaches deal to play games at Tottenham’s new stadium in London

Posted by Josh Alper on July 8, 2015, 7:30 AM EDT
Tottenham Hotspur v Manchester City - Premier League
Getty Images
In April, there was word from London that English Premier League side Tottenham wanted to share their new stadium with an NFL team when and if the NFL put a team on that side of the Atlantic.

There’s no team heading there on a permanent basis, but there will be games at Tottenham’s building when it opens in 2018. The EPL team announced that they and the league have struck a 10-year agreement to play a minimum two regular season games a year at their stadium, which is under construction. The stadium is being built with the NFL in mind and will have two fields — grass for soccer, FieldTurf for football — that can be swapped out as needed.

“With growing enthusiasm for the NFL in the United Kingdom, we are committed to hosting NFL games in world-class venues and are excited to partner with Tottenham Hotspur to play games at their future stadium,” NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement from the team. “We share a vision and commitment to creating the best experience for our teams, fans and the local community.”

The deal does not mean the league will stop playing games at Wembley Stadium, which will host three games during the 2015 regular season. NFL executive vice president of international Mark Waller said, via Daniel Kaplan of Sports Business Journal, that the league has a “great relationship” with Wembley and that securing another site in London gives the league more flexibility in scheduling as well as the opportunity to play more games in London as either a visitor or permanent resident
I wish I could quit the NFL sometimes.
I really do.

Where was all of this supposed enthusiasm for NFL Europe?

If that cant stick over there, then the idea that a British team will is garbage... wish this idea would finally die the ugly death it deserves.

Great, let's **** season ticket holders across the nation even more. And while we're at it, let's make sure to not buy them dinner after we **** them so hard. We've already ****ed them dry with significant increases on all kinds of prices. Don't forget the dome ****ing we gave them with that lockout a few years ago. And who could forget the mouth **** of a lifetime when our own Roger Goodell realized that he's actually God?

Man, do I love getting ****ed.

It's hard for anyone on either side of the Atlantic to get excited about watching D-League players. It's not like NFL Europe was some kind of ratings success in America. The NFL shut it down for a reason.

Sending over developmental players as a way to gain new followers was very flawed concept. People will pay to see the best athletes in the world but it's a tough sell if they're asked to pay to see scrubs.

Instead of having a team, just have 8 games there a year. Half the league plays over in England each year. The next half plays the next season. Rotate between the two stadiums.

I've honestly considered that take before I even posted earlier.

If that's true, then why does the CFL continue to do well? they get NFL developmental guys/leftovers and are still able to turn a profit... Canada just seems to love having its OWN football thing more than Europe ever will IMO.

CFL isn't a minor league NFL. There is also plenty of Canadian players on the roster due to import rules. Not to mention its almost a totally different game than the American version.
