Gold claims he is ‘not powerless’ over ground-share
Using Twitter to communicate with Gold, Carlo Resinelli, a long-standing supporter, asked: “Is it true we are powerless to stop LLDC allowing another football club to share part-time or otherwise?”
Gold responded promptly, stating: “West Ham United football club is not powerless.”
But the answer has failed to silence supporters who believe there may be some substance to the speculation and rumours that are sweeping the east end.
The question was posed amid fresh claims that Spurs could still ask Stadium operator, Vinci, to broker a ground-sharing arrangement with West Ham if negotiations with the FA over the use of Wembley are not concluded to the north Londoner’s satisfaction.
A very highly placed West Ham insider told ClaretandHugh exclusively: “We are tenants, so it could happen. We keep saying we have a good deal, but it’s NOT as amazing as people think.
“Having said that nobody believes it will happen for a moment. From everything we are hearing and are being told it seems far more likely that they will go to Wembley.
“In the very unlikely event of a ground share happening for one season our fixtures will always have priority and the stadium will have the look and feel of West Ham United’s home!”
