I got a tweet from Dan Roan yesterday telling me that he 'hopes we stay up'.

Does the Standard not share a stable with the Independent?
That rag has a Tottenham bias so pronounced it scares pigs from 4,000 yards.
Of course, they try to disguise the fact by reporting clubs they consider spurs' equals (the actual Top 4/5) in almost as positive a light, but their language use is unmistakable.
Clubs outside that self-defined "elite", and not just West Ham, get, in general, treated as if they are something unpleasant the reporter has accidentally trodden in and will only sing praise reluctantly and if it's clear they're out of step with the rest of the mass media.

The Standard is from the Daily Mail stable although some Russian bought a controlling stake a few years back.

massive bias from the Standard. as Gavros says , its 560 more seats than the Emirates. and i doubt Spurs will have a money spinner like Arsenal's Diamond Club

The only New Years revelation I have managed to keep is not picking up a copy of the Standard on the way home. Absolute cunt of a rag.

They are reporting that they will have the most seats. Their mistake is to then say that makes them the biggest club - numbers of seats do not make you the biggest club.
Besides once their shihole is built I expect the Arse and the Plastics to add a few more and put them back in their place.
On that note, will we be able to add to our 54,000 if required?

If, and this is a spectacular if, West Ham have an absolute shocker next season and end up going down, and Spurs have a great season, I honestly don't know how some on here would cope. The hatred will go up a notch.
This fetishized, obsessive nature with the Spuds is embarrassing. Yes a lot of them are bell-ends but we look just as bad by giving them so much attention (more than the Standard ever do).

Even if we filled it once it would still be good to see in the record books that our highest attendance is 70, odd thousand instead of the embarrassing 42, 000.

The Evening Standard has been for years the best newspaper to contain no news. It's shit. I haven't picked up a copy in years.. and to think that people actually paid for that drivel.

The Evening Standard is a great newspaper if you want at least two stories a day about Cara Delevinge, want to know what Prince Harry's mates got upto last night at some art gallery/ club opening, want to by a £2 million house in Chiswick or want to know what some recent Oxbridge graduate's views are on foreign/ defence/ health policy despite the fact they know fuck all about anything.
