Further details of new OS wrap revealed

|

Detailed planning permission and diagrams for the new Olympic Stadium wrap have now been published by the London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC). The planning documentation reveals the wrap may not be completed until 1st August this year, just days before West Ham kick off their new Premier League season.

The new naming rights sponsor of the stadium will have prominent placing of their brand around the wrap but West Ham’s new crest and club colours will be heavily incorporated too in the design using the London Olympic 2012 shard pattern which is also utilised in the stadium’s seating.  The new design is mostly a fabric wrap with  external lighting illuminating two-thirds of it.  It has one giant TV screen which is a massive 83 metres long and 12 metres high which will take up 10% of the stadium wrap circumstance.  The West side of the stadium will have no external lighting and one part of the stadium will have no wrap what so ever. The fabric panels have a life span of five years so will need to be replaced frequently during the Hammer’s 99 year rental agreement with E20 Stadium LLP.

    Did you know that the six thousand places for the O/S up for grabs has seriously taken people for a ride ! Those that have been charged ten pounds for registering have next to no chance of getting a ticket as of time of registering ! Only one person has to pay ten quid and then he or she can add two more people to his ticket purchase ! Which means that in effect people who haven’t paid a tenner get preference over those that have paid .
    There are at present 40 , 000 on the priority list ,
    Now that IMO is just not on , its a scam ! 400,000 quid of you’re money sitting there forever
    Making profit , as of Monday 4 April when the new batch was released only 4,000 s/t were available of the 6,000 ????
    Totally unacceptable !! What a way to great life long supporters !! Sick !!!!
