At the end of all of this it could be, Spurs will get their money, west ham/newham council will save £40 mil and Leyton get f*** all.
Or there's a small chance mr Hearn will get Orient a free stadium leaving him to sell Brisbane rd at a tidy profit for the person that owns it....himself. Me thinks he protests too much.

CH - you need to trawl a bit wider for news:

The future of London’s Olympic Stadium was plunged into uncertainty on Tuesday after the collapse of a deal which would have seen Premier League side West Ham move to the venue.

The 24-year-old, from Buckhurst Hill, said: "I never wanted us to move from Upton Park. It's a proper old-fashioned ground in the streets and a lot of West Ham fans would agree that the ground has acted as our 12th man."
12th man...not recently!

Cheers CH.

Hearn doesn't care about West Ham, Tottenham or Orient he just wants a nice sackful of cash and if that comes from a bribe, Brisbane Road being sold or any other method he won't care as long as he adds £££'s to his bank balance.

Funnily enough, that's almost exactly the wording some Orient fans are using to describe our owners.

Whether we stay where we are, move to OS or a.n.other site, I still think Hearn is a c*nt .
I second that. He only did it because he was cawardly hiding behind Tottenham for protection.

Every cloud has a silver lining.... this all may be a blessing in disguise. More thought needs to go into how the OS could be a good football venue.... fans def too far from the pitch. kay sera sera

Its amazing how people change their tune.

Barry Hearn a few months back...

"We're all being sucked in as if we're criticising the Olympics, we're not, we love the Olympics but the only way forward for this stadium is to knock it down, take away the athletics track and build a proper stadium.

"As much as Leyton Orient are a small club I would never go [to a stadium] where my fans are 80-yards away from the grass action, it just destroys the atmosphere. You can't hide that, you can't put seats on the running track, it just doesn't work.


and now its all of a sudden become practical with the track still staying...

Cheers CH.

So Karen, "We will never turn our back on our history and heritage. We embrace it and recognise we must make sure the stadium works for our fans first and foremost."

On that basis get rid of the running track as no-one wants it.

Cheers Karen, always knew you'd listen to the fans (not). Another vacuous statement from a another company manager-type.
