New 'perks' welcomed by fans

West Ham United's announcement of further benefits for Season Ticket Holders have been welcomed by supporters.

Last weekend the Club confirmed that a string of new benefits were being introduced, including a fans' forum featuring David Gold, Sam Allardyce and captain Kevin Nolan; a further event later in the season featuring Andy Carroll, Mark Noble and Joe Cole; an open training session; significant discounts on in-store goods; a complimentary DVD of West Ham's recent 3-0 win at Tottenham and an invitation to attend next season's first team photoshoot.

Not surprisingly these measures have been welcomed by Season Ticket Holders, one of whom, KUMB member West Ham Tom, said: "It's really good news and a nice touch" - thoughts echoed by Kialos, who added, "This is good by the club, it's a step in the right direction."

However one or two more cynical fans believe that the Club have only acted in response to criticism that Season Ticket Holders have been given a rough ride in the last two or three years.

" I think this kind of thing is what they should have been doing as a matter of course," said Denbighhammer - "not a hastily-cobbled together programme of exclusives in the wake of a couple of quite serious slaps in the face for Season Ticket Holders recently."
