Re: The Olympic/London Stadium: Poll #3
I'm a yes.
"Front row" of the band 5's in Block 215 (row 56) and have to say for the price, the view is well worth it.
And that is factoring in the travelling from Chester for each game into the decision as well.

Re: The Olympic/London Stadium: Poll #3
Much as I dislike the place and have a complete feeling of disillusionment the like of which I have never experienced even through five relegations, I went "yes" as I will renew. Old habits die hard.
Re: The Olympic/London Stadium: Poll #3
I am renewing because I am a West Ham fan. What else am I supposed to do on a Saturday? I would renew if we played in the Ryman Premier League in a sandpit owned by a North Korean Consortium. Yes the ground isnt great, yes the owners do my head in, yes we arent great (nothing new), but I am a West Ham fan, so I go to watch West Ham.
Re: The Olympic/London Stadium: Poll #3
I will renew but just before the deadline.
I've been a ST holder for nearly 25 years and I'm not about to give up now.
I was ok about the move to the OS although I thought it would help us kick on a bit and really compete with the top teams, that obviously hasn't materialised as of yet (and maybe never will)?
I never met up with friends in the pub before going to the games at UP, normally just went for pie and mash or similar so I'm finding the Westfield experience ok and I'm not one to get upset about the 'tourists' or popcorn.
I can understand why others will not renew though but for me its always been about West Ham, the team and the football more so than the 'whole experience'.

Re: The Olympic/London Stadium: Poll #3
I can concur largely with what Ammo has said in a previous post.
I have been going to UPark since 1964 and been a season ticket holder since the late 70's give or take a few periods when I was working overseas.
My parents lived in East Ham so my match day ritual was lunch / dinner there then straight to the game. That's all gone now, but it does allow to meet mates for a pre-match pint and pie & mash @ The Builders Arms, so a positive.
I would think a lot of the scamper to renew early is related to the seat change issue......which we in our small group are considering, but with no intention of parting with any cash to the club until close to deadline - then let's see how we go.....

Re: The Olympic/London Stadium: Poll #3
Waiting like a mug in the hope we get moved back to 114, will probably renew regardless at the last minute to keep pp and hope it improves next season
Re: The Olympic/London Stadium: Poll #3
I hope other ST holders don't mind me saying that the if the club decides to persist with it's partial closure of block 114 they should be giving us priority on relocating back to what remains of block 114 or 113/112. Their silence is once again deafening.abbeyiron wrote:Waiting like a mug in the hope we get moved back to 114, will probably renew regardless at the last minute to keep pp and hope it improves next season

Re: The Olympic/London Stadium: Poll #3
I'd suggest the vast majority....I'm one of the few lucky ones.
Many on this thread though don't have a ST so why they are even adding to this thread is the question.

At the same, why are so many that have said yes not saying a word?Romford wrote:

Maybe because after all that has gone on they just can't resist the lure of their beloved club despite the ground and how the whole situation has been handled from day one??

Re: The Olympic/London Stadium: Poll #3
I understand those that just can't say no, I was like that until now.
I can understand those that don't mind their seat or the stadium (my seat has a good view)
But just can't understand anyone that defends what the owners have done or are doing...
