It now seems there will be full crowds at the London Stadium next season, the third wave of Covid permitting. One thing I noticed at the West Ham versus Southampton game was that the squared off ends did make a difference and made the stadium feel a little more intimate.
It's now five years since WHU left Upton Park. It still hurts, but after a year and a half without any live football fans are going to be noisy and glad to be back in any sort of stadium. And West Ham will be returning as a side that finished sixth and made it into the Europa League. We've never had a successful team at the London Stadium before so it should make a difference. Next season will feel like a new start and the corporate bowl might finally start to feel like home.
