Thread: In ten years (or more likely much less) Arsene Wenger won’t be our manager and Spurs will have

    The invinclbles perhaps.

    But not half as much as that achievement deserves.


    The stadium to be fair was more a massive achievement by the board. Not just him.

    Every little helps. At Holloway Road, for example, there are London Transport staff stopping people

    from entering. If instead they allowed 40/50 at a time (which is what the lifts can take, they could move 700/800 an hour. More if some chose to walk down the steps.

    I agree that every little helps though feel your numbers to be wildly inaccurate.

    Your upper ranges of 800 per hour and 50 per lift equates to a lift fully occupying, travelling, fully exiting and back up every 3 minutes. This is simply not going to happen.

    People are then being brought down to a southbound platform where trains are already very heavily congested with additional footfall from both Finsbury Park and Arsenal stations, so not all can board and crowd problems soon arise.

    While it is an inconvenience to some, there is probably a very good reason why this station is not opened.

    The person that stood in the queue then could have walked the short distance to one of the alternative stations and been happily on his or her journey by then.

    And think how many pubs he would have walked past... he might have found LA buying a drink

    No. At 3 mins it would be 1,000 per hour. The trains coming southbound are not crowded at the ends.
