I think that was more to do with the standard of the game, the first half was absolutely horrendous from both sides.
Like most big stadiums when there buzzing they make absolutely amazing atmosphere as did the 'bubbles' song yesterday but also when there is lulls in games they really lack atmosphere.
Tottenham will find out the same when they move stadiums soon.
Think you might have lost that huge advantage you had at home though. Players were always a little intimidated going to the Boleyn
2/2 in competitive games at the newbie lol
But yeah you could be right
In saying that the Daves believe we will have 65k season ticket holders next season which is very impressive
We currently have more season ticket holders than Tottenham can fit in their stadium lol
I assume you mean our current stadium as the new stadium will be virtually the same as the Olympic Stadium? That's fair enough as there's a gaping hole in it at the moment for the new development.
I doubt at our new stadium we'll have the same amount of empty seats West Ham had last weekend, we might get a few to Wembley when we play there this season too.
I'm glad we missed out on the Olympic stadium mainly due to our insistence the stadium be reconfigured to bring the fans closer. West Ham might be regretting they didn't demand similar, soon if not already.
