it is the athletics legacy that won it for WH - it had always been important that the olympics led to additional athletics facilities in the city - Spurs didn't want to retain athletic capacity and WH proposed doing so. problem is now that WH need to bounce back immeditately or they may not have the cash to move in and do what was proposed.
Terrible decision for West Ham |

And what football fan wamts to wach a game with a running track around the pitch ?
Terrible decision for West Ham Its going to be a very soulless ground. However they dont take possession for another couple of years, so have time to get back into the premiership. Which isnt going to be easy, as their best players will leave. |

I distinctly remember going to greyhound racing at the old Wembley stadium, so that must have had a similar gap between supporters and pitch? |

To be fair to Karren, West Ham being relegated is little of her doing.
Many faults lie within West Ham way before you get to Karren. You have International players (with the exception of Parker) who didn't give it everything You had a manager who doesn't look like the type of man who would kick their asses back into line. You have Gold and Sullivan talking rubbish about them all to the press, like that will help confidence levels. Fact is West Ham could have saved them saves in the last two games but the players gave up and were beaten by the better Wigan time (not surprising when the manager leaves the better players on the bench for some odd reason) |

Terrible decision for West Ham Anyhow, they are looking into a moveable seating area that can be wheeled out to where the track is.. |

To be fair to Karren, both she and David Gold wanted Grant gone in January, it was David Sullivan who apparently insisted he stayed - possibly due to the huge payout Grant would have received thanks to the FOUR year contract G + S gave him. The attempt to bring in Martin O'Neill was badly handled due to a certain loan player leaking the news to the press before it was all sorted out. I wish Ms Brady would cancel her Sun column forthwith if I am honest, but our problems this season have had little to do with her...

I was impressed that Karren remembered that Natasha (?) asked for the procurement manager at the ritz, after she'd BSed that she'd been trying to get some gen from the head chef.

You could hardly forget though, given how ludicrous an idea to ask for someone's supplier list was!

I don't think she adds anything unique to proceedings tbh. She could be anybody... |

I'm not certain the correct spelling of her name or correct punctuation are key for the discussion.
![]() I think she is like many people in her positon, and that is, 'at home pontificating in a boardroom'. I dont like her much as a woman, her business skills are over-rated IMO, and I dont think she is good in her role on this show. |

Because her current football team (West Ham) got relegated today and her former club (Birmingham) could be joining them next week.

...and with a half full stadium. Average attendances in the championship around 30k. The Olympic stadium holds 60K.
Its going to be a very soulless ground. http://stats.football365.com/dom/ENG/D1/attend.html |

More like 15-20k. How will they even afford the ground?
http://stats.football365.com/dom/ENG/D1/attend.html I have also heard/read somewhere, that the olympic stadium will be reduced in capacity when WH take it over. Not sure if this is true or not. |
