Hopefully the halfway line, will be inline with the centre of the gangway in the AC stand.Henry Irving said:
Last season Valley pitch was 103.3m x 68m, now it's 103m x 68m.Had to go 300mm (nearly 12 inches) shorter because of stitching and undersoil heating pipes. Now means pitch is properly square to the stands.

They plan to shift the stand 3 ft to the right just to accommodate your request.guinnessaddick said:

I assume those hours cater for these new Sky kick-off times (12.30 and 5.30). Gonna have to pretend I’m off on a flight somewhere if I’m going to be on the beers at 9am!!! 🥴😂0

ANPR was put in because there actually are people who use the car park to commute to London. One of our guys was working there this week and saw a chap in a West Ham shirt walking to his car at the end of the day.
apparently the gated are opened at 5:30am and commuters are taking the piss

Get that at a local doctor's surgery, patients can't park because loads of commuters want to avoid parking fees and restrictions.Swisdom said:ANPR was put in because there actually are people who use the car park to commute to London.

That's what happens when authorities try to impact private transport use (wage war).1 -

@Swisdom that’s been happening on and off for the last 25 years since the council put in the parking zone
the club have looked at charging in the past but the cost of entrance barrrier/staff outweighed the benefit
also thought was that club would lose more income as supporters would only come on match days
what will happen to the supporters that used to park there to get away coaches to away games? Are club going to now charge them to park there for 12 plus hours ? Or are club prepared to lose more customers on the coaches

That's good. Fans in the stand will now be better aligned with the 16.4592m box.Henry Irving said:

Did the stadium tour today and the pitch and the stadium looked resplendent in the summer’s day. The dug out is about to be kitted out with padded seats so we are continuing with those little details which will just add to the professionalism of the club.
