But can you pay on the night?

Mr T · 14-09-2016, 16:45

Would think pay on the night would be unlikely due to the logistics of the Olympic Stadium.

Given both Club still have tickets to sell I'll ask the question.; but suspect we wont get an answer until after the weekend.

Dav we are selling post match on Saturday; so why not get yours then?

Is that 2 x £1 shops? If so then lol at the big smoke being outgunned by lil ol' Accy ... we have about 15

Or is it a plethora of £2 shops? In that case ya'll wont be getting no tourism cash off us!

I laugh every time I drive past the 89p shop in Bradford

There are not many watering holes in the vicinity. At the Westfield Shopping Centre near Stratford International station is Tap East that brews some of it's own stuff and sells a few reasonable brews - but ask how much they are as they can vary from £4 to £8 a pint depending how rare/odd/strong they are.

Near Hackney Wick station about a 15 minute walk to the stadium is the canalside Crate Brewery who brew their own stuff and do nice pizzas.

You can always have a few beers around Euston and Kings Cross (Queens Head, Acton St Kings Cross, Parcel Yard in Kings Cross station and Betjemens inside St,Pancras station all do proper ales) and get the javelin train to Stratford International. it takes 7 minutes to get from St.Pancras to Stratford though you need to haggle over the fares as they can vary depending on railcards and how many are travelling and what time train you get.

Last train back North from Euston is the 23:00 to Manchester.
My ticket is in the post - hope as many of you make it down as possible

4 cans of Stella, a bag of crisps and a scratch card from the newsagents while sitting on a park bench near the stadium will suffice for cashman!

Sorry. Not sure if one is a 99p one. How many you sold. I was expecting a few thousand.

You'll be looking at hundreds, not thousands.

maccawozzagod · 15-09-2016, 11:57

Possibly dozens ...

Judging by what West Ham fans are saying it looks like you get kicked out if you stand up

Its normal at many premiership grounds,simple answer we will be better off staying seated.

its crap, but if yeh wanna see the match.

FriendlyHammerFan · 16-09-2016, 16:54

You should be okay. Only problem will be if people behind cannot stand and you are blocking their view.

maccawozzagod · 16-09-2016, 19:03

Unless we take this kinda crowd I dont think it'll be a bother

AccyMad · 17-09-2016, 08:50

Around 500 sold so far I believe, if it carries on like this we could equal last season's away following to Wycombe - gutted can't go but will definitely be there for the fourth round

West Ham had a full page ad in the Evening Standard last week for the Stanley game. Suspect there may be lots of neutrals and tourists going for the craic, plus the neighbourhood freebies mentioned above.
No doubt there'll also be the odd spiv selling bogus Stanley gear outside from which the club will get nowt.

DAV007 · 17-09-2016, 13:26

What's a spiv?
