  • West Ham United and the London Stadium have been good for each other – legacy chiefs should do a new deal to give the club more control

    September 2, 2021

    This isn’t the article I expected to write; I went back to the London Stadium to bury it not to praise it. Instead, I came away with a deeper understanding of just what a valuable asset West Ham United Football Club has become. Nine years on from London 2012 and four from the World Athletics [...]
