@andystone1978 tweeted: "Read the room ffs. "The home of NFL" ? Not the "home of Tottenham Hotspur"? At least we all know where the priorities of Enic are."

@tehTrunk put: "The home of NFL" – kinell," while @TsideSpurs added: "The home of Tottenham Hotspur, you p*****."

@Deano4x8 commented: "Oh dear… Purpose built NFL stadium. Home of NFL. Never mind the football club it's actually home to eh?"

Spurs, arguably, have one of the best stadiums in the world, and that allows them to host NFL games and concerts – as well as football matches. But this ground – which is a huge revenue driver – is predominantly for Tottenham football fixtures, and going by fans' reaction to this tweet, everything behind that is secondary.

Before Tottenham return to their ground for Premier League football later this month, the stadium will play host to Jacksonville Jaguars and the Chicago Bears on Sunday as NFL action returns to north London.
