You should see the debate on the football ground guide forum as to whether its a move at all or rather a rebuild.

It's obviously just a major rebuild that's being presented as a move purely for marketing and financial reasons.

Technically its a move, all-be-it only 400 yds away.  Think its costing 600 million.

Least they staying close to their roots, and not doing this souless out of town grounds like Bolton have done and Aberdeen are planning.

How is it technically a move?

Its less than 400 yards as the pitch at one end will either overlap or be very close to where one of the ends were.

Bournemouth turned their stadium by 90 degrees and that was not considered a move but only some of the pitch is where the old pitch was (As did Wembley)

I would guess they going to play on 10- 20% of the old pitch area.

They have moved 400 yds away, so they have moved.

Compare the end of their stand to the end of the old stand, its a move.

They've expanded their existing site and moved along a bit within their existing site. They're actually now nearer White Hart Lane. It's a poor marketing con that most people can easily see through.

IIRC Wolves did that at Molineux. 

The pitch was also turned by 90 degrees when Cardiff Arms Park was redeveloped.

Have Tottenham ever claimed to be moving? They mention "moving into a new home" a lot, which I doubt anyone could argue with as it's a completely new build.

Seems like an argument out of nothing

They completely demolished their old stadium.

The stadium they will play in is NOT the White Hart Lane.

 

They are moving to a new stadium. So I would say they are moving,
