David Sullivan has promised that life inside the new London Stadium will get better “game on game” but insists he was delighted with the opening night of football at the stadium.

The co chairman and chief shareholder – speaking exclusively to ClaretandHugh admitted: “I think we were all apprehensive regarding the views, atmosphere and sound levels but  it went well.”

And he added: “Whilst the stadium is NOT the finished article, it will get better game by game.”

He stressed that everybody is happy saying “Even as it is, I think we were all much more pleased than we anticipated. We should all be pleased by the work of Karren and her team who have master-minded the move.

He believes that as time passes everybody will understand just what a fabulous stadium we have inherited declaring: “It will  be a few games before we realise that this magnificent stadium is our new home.”
