Genie Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) The local council apparently pissed off about all the standing... how about fit some seats then Edited August 22, 2016 by Genie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSmirch Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 West Ham fans I know already don't like the new stadium. They call it the "bowl with no soul." Issues with stewards trying to get people to sit down so the fans boo them back, you're also about a mile from the pitch and in a lot of places the view is restricted somewhat apparently.

villa4europe Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 from some of the videos i saw yesterday it looks like they're scimping on the police numbers outside the ground too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 They were always likely to struggle there in the first season, and I'm going to predict home losses quite a lot this season. Man City struggled in their first year in the new place too. It's standard really. They just have to not get relegated, and not do so badly that all their best players decide to leave.

It really seems far from the pitch. I wouldn't want to pay to be that far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. Andy Carrol already injured, back in 2 months, which probably means Christmas. He's the example of why young players should take the money when offered otherwise risk never getting the deal again. He's been incredibly lucky to be fit at contract renewal / transfer time.

rodders0223 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 It really is a horrible football stadium. You are so detached from the pitch , I saw it on Spencer FC's channel. If that is progress, give me good old VP and Championship football anytime. ****, I sound like my Grandad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like it's okay for clubs to sell players when they aren't good enough for the club. But a player is villainised when they consider the club isn't good enough for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't finish in top four, they were better off trying to win the cup and get champions league! What's the point of finishing 5th or 6th then getting embarrassed by minnows every year in this competition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
