Ham shouldn't have a direction in my opinion. None of the other meats do, so why should ham? I mean, you don't get North Pork, do you?

Apparently have sold over 52k season tickets for next season.
Crazy number.
Are they on the brink of pushing into the elite of British football?
Next season in the pl is going to be very tough to call.

I've had a Southwest burger before, not sure if that counts?
Oriental pork?
you mean like newcastle who have been getting 50 thousand plus for years and are on the brink of relegation
I`m of the opinion that moving out of their heart land will eventually break them.
Give it a couple of seasons in a soul less stadium away from Upton park and the novelty will wear off and it will be hard to recreate what they had.
How much subsidy do Newcastle get from the public purse?

The whole West Ham stadium deal stinks.
Yes we brought new fans on board as West Ham will do with a bigger stadium but they will soon disappear plus when you factor in the fans that live in the Upton Park area not making the 3 ? mile trip to the new stadium.
Add to this not being able to create that upton park atmosphere I`m certain a lot of old school will stop going.
I know a few who stopped going when we moved across Sloper road for all the above reasons.
Is playing before 60,000 the West Ham way?
Sad to see a great traditional club going down the same road as most clubs and play in a soulless bowl geared for the happy clappy crowd, on Saturday Norwich fans had those blow up items that you bang together, it was like a crowd that lines the streets for the London Marathon, all that's wanted now is for players to dress up in Womble and Elvis outfits.West Ham has always been a club that prides itself in tradition and working class roots, getting off at Upton Park station and a walk down Green street on match day with the market stalls and jellied eels has been the same for decades but things change, sometimes not for the better.
I have been to the Boleyn ground often in the last 9 years and often before that, but I cannot recall ever seeing a jellied eel stall or anything like the things you mention in Green street.
When you go there you might understand what I'm saying.
But then if they move to the Olympic Stadium, (Which by the way was built as a 20,000 seater with the rest 'Temporary') you and a lot of others will never see the old Upton Park in all it's old glory.
Dream on.
leeds are not moving away from their current stadium , the clever clubs simply redevelop their current stadiums such as man utd, newcastle. liverpool etc without moving away , leeds could easily do the same and add 10- 20,000 to their current capacity without having to uproot from their traditional ground
it is about the traditional fans and where they are from, not fans who just appear out of nowhere simply because they have moved to a bigger stadium or are having a succesful period at a particular time.
as a cardiff fan you should know that only too well
when elland road is full its a cauldron at the best of times .
god knows what it would be like with 50 - 60 thousand inside the place
