The OPLC have confirmed that their preferred bidder status will go to West Ham United.
The decision was finally confirmed at 12.25pm this afternoon after the 14-man panel decided unanimously that West Ham's bid was the only one that adhered to the legacy programme.News of West Ham's win has been reasonably well greeted amongst the supporters, although there are still many who feel that leaving the Boleyn will be the death-knell for the club.
Although the club have been given preferred bidder status, the deiciosn still needs to be ratified by London mayor Boris Johnson and the Government, neither of whom are expected to oppose the OPLC's decision.
