Said that after I went last season. Shame as Upton Park was one of my favourite away days, proper ground.

Think yourself lucky we only go there once a season imagine having to go threw that experience 20 odd times a season worse match experience that we go to would rather travel to Swansea or burnley then to that ground.

Didn't give how they got the stadium a thought when i was trudging round parts of east London i didn't know existed, trying to get back to Stratford International. Awful stadium in every respect. Football ground for people who don't like football, just the 'experience'. I would actually feel sorry for their fans if so many of them weren't mockney wankers.

West Ham would be in massive trouble if they went down because it is not a good football experience for home or away fans.

Is this a serious question.
About Early 20s I would guess. To think we are paying for them to play there too! Imagine going from Selhurst to that, it would kill you with every game!! |

It’s not a football stadium but I personally felt the concourse experience with natural light and noticeable lack of exposed cabling and pipe work is the best in the league.i didn’t go last night though so haven’t experienced it at night. I thought it was spacious and comfortable and noticed no such problem with the toilets.
The upper tier is simply not worth paying to view the game from. Lower tier or don’t bother. |

Also why sell alcohol to home fans but not away fans. Was not a huge deal for me but it is the principle of the matter. |

Not in the slightest bit jealous of any aspect of that ground. Not one thing. Nothing.
They still haven't got round to putting up the Bobby Moore statue they have planned (yes, another one), still just a plinth where it should be. Wouldn't say no to a new football stadium in CP Park of course, but what they have is a compromise on every single level bar the large capacity.

Mentally, possibly.
He was upset he couldn't smoke and quite clearly had not grasped what they steward was saying. Even the steward couldn't understand why there was no alcohol, a question he said he had been asked fifty times already! |

I wouldn't go very often if we ever got a stadium that even resembles the one we played in yesterday.
Terrible view, terrible atmosphere, terrible facilities and a terrible journey to/from. Upton Park was a great football stadium and the Olympic Stadium is opposite in every way. Waiting for Scro to come along and say it's great because there's a nice Nandos in the Westfield centre or something |

I sat in their end.
What absolute ******* helmets they are. Had one **** sitting next to me trying his hardest to sound like some sort of football guru and dropping cliche’s left right and centre. My favourite of which was “Noble is purring tonight, he loves a London derby” Also voiced his approval of their stringing 4 passes together across that back 4 (from their corner!!) with reputations of “nice” after each pass, followed by “love what i’m seeing here, ammers” Funnily enough, he left at half time. As did about 10 people around us. Whadddacant.

I was assuming when they shifted to football they'd put up some temporary stands to make the crowd closer to the pitch. I only watched on a stream but it looks like a whopping distance from front row to touchline at the far edges of the bowl.
