Byebye Upton Park

Final decision hasn't actually been made yet

The OPLC are saying this is speculation at the moment.

That picture aint a true one, there's goner be a sodding great big running track aound it, and those spectators aint holding any binoculars

maybe they have plans for retractable seats to come out over the running track when football is being played.

This has been done in both outdoor and indoor venues so isnt anything new

It's just occurred to me. If this is true, that's twice we've beaten Spurs this year.

Paolo is comparing it to Lazio's stadium, which he reckons still has a fantastic atmosphere despite the track. God has spoken.

That is so clutching at straws....

But it's true.......

Tell me, on what grounds is Levy planning to take action against the OPLC if the decision doesn't go his way? And Lord Sugar's up on his hind legs parping on about it too.

OH I don't know.. I really don't think we want to move there to be honest. I would suspect the only real reason it the communications that will feed the area.
It will piss a lot of the supporters off if we move there. But hey what do I know.

I would suspect that if the Spud case has not been considered properly, which is entirely possible. Then Levy will probably waste more time in the courts.

BUt at the end of the day we have the permission to increase the capacity at WHL. But there is little provision by the council to increase the access to the area.

Levy has said the WHL development is dead in the water. Too expensive.

That's fine with me. Stratford Hotspur rise from the ashes of Shite Hart Lane.

West Ham have won the bid - a unanimous decision. I suppose the bickering will really start noe.

Oi less of the Shite thanks.... I dont mention your hovel stuck down in the crappiest part of London...

well it was always going to be West Ham that got it as WEST HAM UNITED is an anagram of THE NEW STADIUM

simples

I suppose it will be a suitable size when Millwall rock up for their local derbies in the future..

£500m stadium, 60000 capacity less than half full, hosting championship football. WHAT A LEGACY!
