So if nothing can be done, you'd be against it then?

If so, we agree on something. :shock:

Is this based on your own assumptions or what the club have said. As other then the club talking about retractable/temp seating they have actually confirmed nothing or shown no images of it?

As I have said previously.

My company has ties with the Olympic Park.

When I first found out about the chance we could move there I asked the Engineers what can be done. I believe them and whenever we recieve updates I have a read of them. (They haven't said what WILL be done so don't get that twisted)

Obviously if money was no object this would be a lot easier.(Funny that)

I have also spoken to Ian at West Ham a lot before he was suspended (posted everything up on here). I haven't been able to speak to him for months (naturally)

He said they can make this work and I have no reason to doubt him. If we cannot make it work we will walk.

I believe they need us to take the Olympic Stadium so they and we are playing hardball.

Do you think they will obtain a lucractive deal on naming rights when the stadium is only in use twice a year? Or do you not think it would be more attractive having a permanent tennant playing the most popular global sport there?

Apparently not, and the backs are suspiciously claret.

As opposed to inside Wembley Stadium which is well exciting under the stands?
