On that subject, i hope any clock they have will actually be able to show how much injury time has been played.
Unless you remember to set your own timer at the end of 90, it's hard to keep track of how long has been played.
Unless of course it's not allowed?
Part of the reason why the clock on the Bobby Moore stand has not been fixed for years cause it displayed the actual time and people could (roughly) work out how much extra time had been played.

Best the powers that be ignore the fact that there are 35,000 clocks at every game built into 35,000 mobile phones... plus of course a not insignificant amount of wristwatches for those that prefer a more traditional form of timekeeping.

I love that - its a fantastic design.
I prefer stadiums that show the structure, I think wraps cheapen the design, look at Bayern Munich's Stadium Allianz arena, although it shows a simplistic design, when you look up close it's all plastic semi-transparent "bulges" which light up! wow... pretty colours!
if you compare that to the Beijing national stadium which they used for the Olympics, there's only one winner.

2 Giant HD Screens with the shard design mimicking the seats inside in our colours.
Sounds great to me & to think all those jealous opposition fans were saying it will never look like your home because you don't own it!
Im getting fed up editing pictures duetothem being too large, theres reasons we have a limit on size of image, if you do not know how to resize a picture post a link, and read the t's and c's
I will just delete any posts now rather than edit them
A86 thats why your has gone as your previous post in I believe the picture thread I edited and asked you not to
Have to say I disagree. I think the full digital wrap would have looked stunning. have the club yet revealed the official reason they haven't gone ahead with it yet?
They'd be silly to do something printed - with this at least they can change it when different events are on. I'd argue that it makes the stadium less 'ours' though. Flick a switch on match days and its West Ham, turn it off come full time and the shoppers are none the wiser.

Please all of you give it a rest
Thank you
cheers... I think? just seen your post in regards to picture sizes... In another thread. will bare this in mind in future.
as I was saying.... the Stadium has an approximate 900m circumference and the screen(s) length is only 82m... surely this screen is for the main footpath and the remainder of the stadium will be in a light material fabric wrap.
