Speculation that a VIP cheese room would be a feature of Spurs’ new ground has been ended after the club confirmed that one will not be built.

The prospect of such an inclusion was reportedly mentioned at a stadium preview presentation more than two years ago.

It was said that fans would be able to “to select their own specially sourced half-time cheeses”.

But The Guardian has now revealed that they have been informed there will be no cheese room.

Tottenham also apparently suggested to the paper they were never intending to create one in the first place.
