He was right, it was 86%, i did apologise to him for the mistake and send him a link to whs view report, which strangely he retweeted. Not had a reply from him though, can't see why?

Quite possibly our biggest regret as a collection of supporters. We meekly went along for the ride, and now we are there, i for one am totally gutted with the whole affair. Gutted, I hate it, every bit of it.

Not that I would have the ability to lead such a campaign, but at the same time angry with myself at the lost opportunity for not getting involved in finding out if there was such a thing.

No good crying over spilled milk. Renewal time will be interesting.

I posted years ago that West Ham were meekly going to the Olympic Stadium like lambs to the slaughter and that Gold and Sullivan were only interested in their bank balances... I was vilified and sent threatening messages.

I am sorry to hear that you EVER thought Premier League was anything more than a business.

There was for a while, set up by mywhufc.
Then there was WHUsVIEW that campaigned for a poll.

We got a lot of abuse.
We said that when people saw the stadium and the walk to Stratford many would change their minds. It see that many have.
