West Ham have been forced to confirm issues in a recent statement about the forthcoming Europa league match on the 4th August. The club revealed on WHUFC.com “The newly-configured East Stand will already be in its final, football-ready state, meaning Season Ticket Holders in the East Stand will be unaffected and able to sit in their seasonal seats. In other areas of the Stadium where this is not the case, the Club will do everything possible to find supporters the best alternative seats.For those who do not have to access to their regular seats for this fixture, there is also the option of an additional 48-hour window, when all previously unsold Season Ticket seats will become available.
