  • I took a trip to the capital as I visited the worst football stadium in the premier league... It's an olympic stadium so I don't think anyone can disagree but if you do... let me know which you think is the worst!

    I was there for Freiburg in the Europa League. I´m hopping since approx. 11 years and west ham stadion was the worst atmosphere i´ve ever experienced. (excluding freiburg fans, they did a phenomenal job)

    As a season ticket holder at West Ham, I will admit we have a pretty souless atmosphere. However in big matches it's electric, for example the stadium was shaking vs Sevilla when we won 2-0. And I would also say that we have some of the best fans in the country, it's just difficult to make an atmoshpere when you need binoculars to see the pitch

      i just feel like bowl stadiums don't create good atmosphere in general. highbury was much better than the emirates in terms of atmosphere imo. white hart lane was louder than tottenham hotspur stadium.

    Chasing bigger and bigger crowds is all very well but you reach the stage where even at a ground built for football you are so far away or so high that the experience is not good. Spurs may be a fantastic stadium but I was so high up at the back of the 4th or 5th tier that the angle was weird and the players tiny. Do wonder at times if having a higher capacity than 45,000 is worthwhile. A running track area around the pitch is an absolute no no for atmosphere.

    So far from the pitch you’ll never get decent atmosphere, but give us some entertaining football to watch and the atmosphere will be a lot better than it’s been whilst watching the turgid crap we’ve been served up the last couple of seasons. To watch your team constantly out of possession and inviting teams on when you are playing at home does not get the fans off their seats.

You can't see the players, you can't hear the fans, it's a vacuum and should be demolished. I hope I wasn't sitting on the fence there.

    I am a West Ham season ticket holder and concur that it’s a terrible football stadium, filled with compromises. The shape is all wrong, the lower tier’s gradient is too shallow and in the upper tier you are too far from the pitch and overlook tarpaulin that covers hideous gaps. Also, the Billy Bonds ‘cop’ is not the continuous stand it seems as from the first row of the upper tier you can peer into concourse below and watch people buy hotdogs! Oh, and there are no upper tier concourses meaning the toilets are usually full as they serve both tiers.

We were reigning Champions and the atmosphere was pitful. And 50 pound for the privilege. That was it for me. Fed up with paying ludicrous ticket prices, sat with corporate and day trippers who only jumped on the football bandwagon after Euro 96 because it became also fashionable. Sick and tired of silly kick off days and times to accommodate Sky and TNT sport's. City will always be my club in my blood. And it was done with an heavy heart. But i just stopped enjoying the match going Experience. Its not the game i grew up with stood on the kippax at Maine Road in the 80s90s even the early 00s. I watch none league Scarborough now.
