How funny it will be if WHU are relegated and orient are promoted! Guess that was not on the cards when the tenancy of the Olympic stadium was being considered! And before people say WHU are a big club, they will no way fill out the Olympic stadium if they continue to be a yoyo club and last season they had to advertise on radio all season to flog tickets. That's unless they give away tickets like confetti as promised.

I'd be surprised if they filled the ground, even if they don't get relegated.

What is the status quo? Do they just pay a ground rent?

I really hope Orient keep their form up and get promoted.

£2 million a year if I remember right! not a bad deal seeing that the stadium cost over £500 million

Yes I hope this happens too. Been to both grounds years ago, Orient's figures in the film "Robbery" released in 1967.

Oh West ham are going down unless the board invest heavily in a couple of decent strikers. Our first shot on target today was in the 93rd minute. Absolute dogshite

West Ham would still pull 20k more than Orient if they were both in league 1. im not sure if people are jealous or didnt pay attention to the story, what ever you feel about West Ham they were the best and most credible tenants. the next option was... well there wasnt, it would have been left as a white elehant to house 2 atheltics meet a year.
