Tottenham Hotspur have been billed £1m due to the disruption caused by an 18-hour protest staged on a crane outside their White Hart Lane home.
Spurs were given the green light to begin construction work on their new 61,000-capacity stadium earlier this year after acquiring the remaining land.
The North London outfit now face a seven-figure fine because of a male who scaled a 107ft crane outside the ground and threatened to commit suicide last Monday, Highbury Corner Magistrates' Court has been told.
The estimated bill is down to the cost of emergency services that had to remain at the scene until the trespasser was safely down, while a section of the High Road was also out of bounds.
Wali Azagh, of no fixed address, is being remanded in custody until sentencing on August 3.
