LOFT is aware of reports that the club is apparently interested in talking to West Ham about a possible groundshare at the Olympic Stadium, should our near-neighbours be successful in bidding for the right to rent it.

We will ascertain what the club's plans are (if indeed there are any) before commenting further, however we remain of the view that the Olympic Stadium is not fit for football use and that it would be much better served as an athletics and other community use stadium (including non-football sports).

We trust that Barry Hearn will keep to his stated view that he wouldn't make anyone watch football from behind a running track. We also trust that he will honour his commitment at the recent club AGM to consult fully with supporters before any possible move away from Brisbane Road, our home of the past 75 years.
