Title: Villa Judge To Scupper Spurzz White Hart Lane Redevelopment Plans?

A local business standing in the way of Tottenham Hotspur’s £400m stadium redevelopment plans has launched a high court battle to stay put.

It was agreed on Thursday that the case brought by Archway Sheet Metal Works will be heard on 17-8 February by Mr Justice Dove, who revealed in court he is an Aston Villa fan.

The owners of Archway are challenging the confirmation of a compulsory purchase order that could force them to make way for a new 56,000-capacity stadium complex.

Last November, a mystery fire gutted the premises near the north stand at Tottenham’s White Hart Lane ground in north London.

The owners said they had received “bomb threats” over his refusal to vacate the site. Josif Josif, 46, who runs the family business, said at the time of the fire: “People were calling us and threatening us and we were receiving bomb threats and that started a few months ago but we don’t know if that’s got anything to do with it.”

The company describes itself as a “wonderfully old-fashioned family business” producing metal items for the catering and hospitality industry. The owners have been in a dispute with Spurs for the last decade over the club’s redevelopment plans.

The club has planning permission for the new stadium it hopes to open for the 2018-19 season.

My Judgment would read as follows:

"I have considered Counsels' arguments very carefully. Fuck Spurs."

I'd like the 1971 League Cup Final to be taken into consideration when the decision is made.

My judgement would include a winding up order and seizure of assets.

I would like to forward the phrase "In De Cup for Dottingham" for further consideration.

How about a long queue of Villa fans lining up to kick Ryan Mason -hard -in the bollocks? Then we tell our Villa mate judge to consider, only consider, giving Spurs what they want -before turning them down.

Soldado -you're next!!

Presumably when expert witness Mark Bosnich presents his evidence, it will be a common sense victory for justice.

I think more recent evidence should be taken into consideration as well.

"Incitement to violence" could be one charge.
