Happy for you guys! great move for the club. Leaving all the history might be hard, but make a goal to set new milestones in the new venue. As a Gooner, good luck and maybe see you soon!
great video lads well thought out music etc has made my mind up about a season ticket, 15mins from cheshunt hertfordshire to stratford fantastic. an old hammer
Top video, man. I'm going to Nobes' Testimonial tomorrow, was gonna try and get to Stratford on the way, and check it out, but it looks confusing! There's so much there now, and some tube sections aren't running...but really good footage there, dude.
+Johnny_finn Hello Jonny, it was done with two cameras mate. A Canon G7X and a Lumix GH4R. They are two very different beasts but if you are thinking of getting a new camera reply to this and let me know what it's main use will be and I'll point you in the right direction.
such an incredible move for West Ham to get the Olympic stadium. gonna bring huge opportunities now and this could spark the start of a huge club in the making. gonna miss the good old Boleyn but this is a very positive move. #COYI
+liam chivers Always happens in the beginning, a few seasons in unless they are doing well it will be 1/3 empty for average games unless they are giving tickets away which means they won't get as much money obviously..
Sad in some ways to leave the Boleyn but it's not the same as I remember from the 70s and 80s. The ground looks old and the infrastructure outside just can't cope on match-days. If this move is done properly this could certainly take us to another level and certainly awaken the sleeping giant that is West Ham United! COYI
+Melvyn Xuereb It's sold out Melvyn. Having to create another 6000 seats. The reservation center has now closed because there are literally no more tickets left.
It personally can't stand these modern stadiums all lacking imagination all oval shaped, but then again it's an athletic stadium. Not so sure about regeneration, it's not for local people all private. We have Newham Council telling people who need to be housed, you can be rehoused but you have to go up north, just ask the E15 mums who've been protesting about being told to go up north, whilst the lovely council sell of land to the rich. Social cleansing going on. Up the hammers
These modern stadiums are way better than your outed fossils. What is this "lacking imagination" nonsense I keeping seeing from people like. Olympic Stadium is WORLDS better than Upton Park.
+Cindy Williams i thought this when they made emirates, you'll soon realise the old school grounds are far better, olympic stadium will lack atmosphere aswell due to neutrals going just because of the new stadium
The one thing that is painfully obvious from your brilliant video is that DESPITE being used in the Para-Olympics access to the stadium for wheelchair users is .....ERRRRM TOTALLY SHITE......did you count the number of stairs that Bullingdon Boris promised would not still be there......?
yea cos your identity and being close to the pitch is less important than being able to buy an expensive pizza, the view from the top of the orbital, and being miles from the pitch...
+Cindy Williams I know why we're moving- it's evolve or stand still. I get that. and it's a great deal. but having been in it twice already, the stadium isn't perfect. it's not a football stadium. it's an adapted athletics stadium. for example, the gaps behind the goals between upper and lower tiers are huge. which could seriously harm the atmosphere.
If your reading this on 27th jan 2020 u know now that this video is all wrong as we are shit and the fruit bowl stadium is awful and the team is dire ! Don’t start me on the boards promises 🤬
crikey, you're sensitive. Make sure you give our season review a swerve or you might explode with rage. . . . . not to mention the Harry Kane analysis. . . . in fact if I were you I'd stay off West Ham channels altogether but thanks for watching until the end.
Great video Gonzo. The photo of Bobby Moore running round the Boleyn pitch at 15:32 on his own was very emotional.
Made my day seeing Upton Park again and then the new stadium. Thanks! NZ Hammers fan 4 life
+Buddinhakinen You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it.
Happy for you guys! great move for the club. Leaving all the history might be hard, but make a goal to set new milestones in the new venue. As a Gooner, good luck and maybe see you soon!

Great video guys, loved the Benny Hill music!!
Great video, I was against the move until I went and had a look around myself. It's next level stuff. Will miss the local pubs before a match though.
+andrew smith We'll be doing another video on the local pubs in the summer mate and put a map up.

Thank you Guys. But you just made my Dad cry again. COYI

What happend to sound on this video.
Aint arlf changed round there since I was a nipper! I used to walk from my drum in Stratford to Upton Park for home games down West Ham Lane.
Brilliant Video! Well presented too! You should go into broadcasting as you're a natural!!
Looks a bit like both Hanover 96 & Stugartt's stadium from above.
How far in miles on foot is it or how long would it take to walk from Upton Psrk?
its called the orbit and the aquatics center bar that great vid
Great video pal
I must come to one game it looks great
This is your best production yet! Maybe a bit of Benny Hill background music would help add some flavour!
Shame, it looked interesting.
Music at the beginning shows that 'You're ground is too big for you'
That's why they needed to put the seats from 54k to 60k again because tickets sold out 😑😬🤗
+liam chivers Always happens in the beginning, a few seasons in unless they are doing well it will be 1/3 empty for average games unless they are giving tickets away which means they won't get as much money obviously..
+Dan mate I'm a Swansea fan and I know West Ham will fill it up every game
COYI Great video!
mr gonzo was u still in school in this video
I went on that exact trip
How young you both look here , no sound on this video unfortunately
And you're happy with moving that far away from your turf
+frank gunner what like from south london like you lot !!
+frank gunner Its the same borough.....
Love it - Excellent Video #COYI
Why can I not hear sound my volume is all the way up
No sound?....
Why can't someone fly a drone over the stadium

COYI!!!
ps great music Benny hill theme cracks me up lol
+Mark P Like they were preparing to rob something with Pink Panther music lol
+Josip Stipic Yeah I love the panther music to but im an old sod I doubt yungsters would even know pink panther lol.
Mark P Yes, I grew up with this cartoon, panther music will remain forever
And to cap it all its totally free of Spurs and Leyton Orient wilfs trying to share it COYI!!!!
"I think this is going to be the best venue in Europe" Howay lad bit far 😂😂😂
COYI
If you guess my team you will hate me....
You used to be so handsome gonzo, what happened?
Never going to be able to fill it!

Oh god, stop.
Times have changed and you are not factoring in certain things.
So you better stop right there.

You're right, it's not perfect.
But this is the best option.
