Club and Country Posted December 15, 2023 Report Share Posted December 15, 2023 Out of interest where is the rail seating on top tier? Is it in specific blocks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Watts Posted December 15, 2023 Report Share Posted December 15, 2023 A few still popping up here and there - probably being released from unchecked out baskets I imagine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1960maaan Posted December 15, 2023 Report Share Posted December 15, 2023 Going to sell out to Season Ticket holders , impressive but a shame for members and the rest missing out. I did wonder if they will release any more as I thought the max (15%) was 9,200 but I just re read the OS posting; We have secured the maximum allocation offered of 8,924 tickets for our trip to the London Stadium Guess that's the lot then . Some will obviously come up in dribs and drabs but no more from WHU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With their European games and top flight stuff, I don't think we'll be high on their list of 'must see' games this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Inlaws asked if I could get them tickets but I steered them to the home end. They'll have no problem as they are from Essex . I can't see there being that much interest , as you say, bigger fish to fry . Should still be a decent crowd , doubt they will sell out though.

Being a local I’ve done some West Ham games and it’s a fairly accurate illustration of the away end. For some reason the gap between upper and lower tiers is more pronounced at the away end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have season ticket holders in every block that is not designated for away fans, only one needs to buy a ticket to make a block unsaleable to us.

I think you’ll be surprised as last night in a league they’d already won and qualified they still got 48 thousand and it’s first game of FA CUP. which always creates interest,I think they’ll be 50000 altogether Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By all accounts it’s a decent athletics stadium, problem is politically it’s a bad look removing the athletics so we’re left with a compromise that pleases nobody Saying that, once they started winning a lot of the West Ham fans complaints quieted down a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some will obviously come up in dribs and drabs but no more from WHU. I think the keyword there is "offered" not "required". If WHam decide to give us more then I'm sure the club will take this. As someone else said though all it takes is for one STH to buy their seat to make the block unavailable to us - unless they relocate them after purchase, which is highly unlikely.

So it was designed to be an Olympic stadium that could easily be scaled back to be an athletics stadium. Unfortunately for the tax payer they hadn't considered that an athletics stadium would not be viable. West Ham have done the absolute best they could do with it. But the problem is and always will be with the initial design. It should have been designed as a football stadium that could host the Olympics and could be converted easily in the summer to host summer sports. Sebastian Coe is to blame for all of this. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
