They got the larger capacity they couldn’t get at Upton Park, but it’s come at a cost. At least when we moved the club made sure it’s one of the best modern grounds for viewing.
You’d be feeling pretty pissed right now if you’re a West Ham fan. Though it’s hardly a surprise I guess moving to a place that still accomodates track and field. What are they going to do with the old ground anyways?
I feel like I remember words pretty much to that effect too. Not personally gonna try and go through the archives to find something along those lines though.
As they are not used to be in this position, they may really get relegated this season. Not the first “too good to get relegated” team to suffer from it.
West Ham are bad because is the effect of choices maked much big than them. A small club like West Ham can’t think to change stadium and identity to improve, because a club like Arsenal made this decision when there were solid bases like a great manager, great players, a great fanbase and a great board capable to manage the money.
The future scenario for me is: Bilic sacked and Di Canio on the bench.
