Re: Olympic Stadium Discussion and Questions

There is no longer any permit-free parking anywhere in Newham, except on Sundays. Realistically, in those circumstances, it wouldnt be possible to accommodate an extra 10000 on the district line and would have een equally hard for the less mobile as currently at the OS.

Re: West Ham United V Manchester United: Match Thread

Seen a few mention parking at Newbury park - not sure, but thi k its closed (the car park)? Was last thursday anyway but dont remember the dates.

Hoping the big occasion effect will kick in for us and that it's a good buzz at the stadium. Thats about the extent of my hopes for this one.

Re: West Ham United v Burnley: Match Thread

All seen the message about the problem with one of the walking routes tonight? round behind the Aquatics centre, (gas main repair) affecting the route of the accessibility bus, and it looks as though the rerouted walk may be longer.

Re: Little things that irritate you

Watching a ten part series on All4, got to the last ad break of episode 10 and the app just packed in. Thatvwas a week ago and still cant get it to play. Dontt know if they all live happily ever after or if they all died.

Was told its because my tablet is too old, would that be true?

Re: Norwich City v West Ham Utd: match thread

Some harsh judgements on this thread. Thought we pretty much controlled the first half. Antonio was caught napping, but it was a poor pass, Noble more at fault for me. First goal came from a very dogged piece of defending from cresswell (I think) which could easily have gone out for a throw, instead...

Re: Books you are reading

Anybody else read any Karl Ove Knausgaard? On the second volume of Min Kampf (that's right) and I think he's one of the best modern writers I've come across. He writes in minute detail about his family life in Sweden and seems a singularly unappealing and nihilistic man, but the quality of his writi...

Just watching the highlights on MOTD, what a complete ****ing bottle job Downing is. The kind of performance that says 'I'm off in the summer, mustnt get injured'. Played a ball forward (Noble?) and just stopped running. Even if hes pissed off at the board/allardyce scenario, where's the profession...

Disgraceful that this has dropped off the front page already! That was the proverbial breath of fresh air.

Re: POLL: The New Club Crest

It has the same look as the Warner Bros logo before a cartoon comes on. Somehow they've made the hammers look like donald duck in profile. In principle, the design ain't bad, the execution is all wrong. The TIW rivets unfortunately add to the cartoon effect. No to 3D effect they have used although, ...

Re: Luis Suarez: what now?

I think the "hysteria" centers on the fact that it's a bite. I've never heard of another professional footballer being done for biting and yet he's being pulled for the 3rd time. There is also a lot of dislike for him over other things - what he did to Ghana in the last world cup, the fac...

Lease extension specialist/s

Can anyone recommend solicitors/surveyors specialising in the above in the east london/havering area? Have started trawling through the Law Society pages without success so far.
Also, if anyone has done it, any general advice would be gratefully received I hear it can be complicated.

What's really got to me in all these discussions is the lack of common decency exhibited by a lot of people across the interweb and in the linen department. Yes, there is good reason to complain but in the last six weeks we've seen the realisation of Shankly's 'football more important than life and ...
