But all our money comes from Oil?
Take That apparently doing 10 nights next summer, I work for Showsec at the concerts and UCL games so thatll pay my Season Ticket off
Same building schedule as when the South Stand was built, concerts won't affect the construction work next summer so contstuction will go ahead as muted in the new year.

Just a quick post on West Ham, after all the hype about selling out with 60k at every game the attendance was only 56600 today for its first game. Although it's a good attendance if they have 50k season tickets holders as stated and say 2k away fans not many match day tickets were sold. We have approx 46k season card holders and when the away 3rd tier is available we sell at least 7/8k match day tickets. Might be interesting to see how many they average if they don't do so well this season and when the novelty of the new stadium wares off, got a feeling a lot of their season tickets have been bought by punters in London who are not West Ham fans but as the prices were low saw a chance to watch cheap premier league football. Mid table at Xmas less the 50k turning up what do you think? Official capacity was up to 60k for today's game.

Looking at pictures on Twitter seems a lot of seats to go in yet ? Thought they had Ltd capacity today due to persistent standing ?Just a quick post on West Ham, after all the hype about selling out with 60k at every game the attendance was only 56600 today for its first game.

That's right. Newham restricted capacity to 57000 due to persistent standing. There was even a pic posted of people sat stood on concrete as they hadn't put seats in!

Didn't know that, still will be interesting to see how attendances hold up during the season. Wonder if the council just trying to make a point and will ease off as other councils have done, didn't we have a similar problem when we first moved to the Etihad ?
It looks nice and pretty but West Ham's new joint is terrible to me.
Seats way far back and on a weird angle
Concrete slabs up top
Temporary seating/scaffolding in the lower section making it look like Frankenstein's monster as well as a OH&S issue waiting to happen
No idea why they needed to spend that much money on "converting" it. Their fans will starting moaning and hating on it pretty soon me thinks. It isn't a patch on our ground now and certainly won't be when the next extension is done.
