Football match at White Hart Lane

I am planning a trip with my son to White Hart Lane on 23 November to see Spurs play Blackburn. The match is a lunchtime kick off on the Sunday-probably being shown live on Sky.

Can anyone advise if it is cheaper to try and buy tickets online befire the match (if possible) or should I buy them on the day at the ground. Will tickets be cheaper on the day if there is not a large crowd?

Any help greatly appreciated.
Val :)

    I believe Tottenham currently pay supporters approx £30 per game to attend. ;)

    I understand that the best way to avoid all the post-match traffic at Tottenham is to stay right to the end.;)

    If you look at this:

    it will give you a good idea of how easy/difficult it is to get tickets for certain grounds if you are not a club member. Spurs with a 98.8% fill will be difficult.
    Try the return fixture- Blackburn are on 70.6% !!!

    Ignore the comedians.

    Most games at White Hart Lane are a sell out, you should book in advance, there's no difference in cost.

    The tickets are on general sale at the moment ,call the ticket office on 0844 844 0102,choosing option 1 then option 2.
    I am a season ticket holder at WHL. I suggest you get tickets in the North stand which is the more family friendly stand.If you are offered tickets above row 16 in the North stand upper tier ask for something lower as you will not be able to see the jumbotron at each end of the stadium.
    The East stand lower is ok but beware there are still some pillars that can obscure the view when you are are in blocks 25-30.
    A few more tips.
    The best way to get there is to get to White hart lane station. Seven sisters underground is a good 30 minute walk.
    The food options at Tottenham are poor all fast foods and to be honest nothing special. Eat before you enter Tottenham :rolleyes:
    Drinks and snacks inside the ground are double the price of the outside prices but dont take plastic bottles with lids they will confiscate them take cartons like ribena.
    Programmes are £3.00 and car parking is £6-£10 hard to find and getting in and out of Tottenhm is a nightmare so take the train or the Bus to the ground.
    Also I think the guy in charge of the Victoria line is a Gooner as on most sundays they are doing repairs :mad: So do check before hand.

    Book tickets asap as the tide has turned.
