Has your opinion of the club's hierarchy risen after the report by football.london?Yes, fair play to themNo, hasn't risen at all |
As things currently stand, Premier League football has been suspended until at least 30th April (via talkSPORT).
Following the report that West Ham staff will continue to be paid in full and be allowed to volunteer for the NHS (per football.london), fans continued to air their delight with the club.
Credit to them for that.
