I've met the odd west ham fan who's a proper dickhead, and had a bad experience with a few of them once, but to be honest, most of them are sound enough in my experience. I only dislike west ham because they hate us so much.
Yeah they're local rivals, so there's that. But you can't manufacture the hatred I (we all) feel for the scum. It's a different thing altogether. I've never known a scum fan I've found to be genuinely sound.
Chelsea are in between those two, but definitely closer to the scum. Right bunch of cunts.
He wanted to flatten it though and develop Crystal Palace plus build a purpose built stadium on the site of the velodrome IIRC. Wouldn’t have been any rental deals
And I can't shake the idea that it was all just a ploy to force through planning permission for redeveloping The Lane.
I don't think Levy ever really wanted to move us over there, he just used the idea as leverage to get what he wanted.
That was my take
West Ham, the London Stadium and why relegation would cost UK taxpayers £2.5m
Analysing how the 'deal of the century' will be affected by West Ham's possible demotion to the Championship

Come for the classic tale of the decade-long fuck up that was the planning for the future of the London Olympic Stadium, stay for the fun fact that Spurs hold the all-time record for English second division attendance at 70,302 against Southampton in 1950.
Haringay council would have lost shitloads if we had left, which Levy would never have let happen anyway as it would have fucked his ‘legacy’ up. Hang on…That was my take
The die was cast from the moment the London 2012 organizers insisted on playing make-believe that they weren't building a football ground. That was the original sin of the whole thing.BBC now reporting on the fact that all Londoners will have to subsidise West Ham even more if they get relegated.
West Ham: London taxpayers could pay extra £2.5m if Hammers relegated
London taxpayers may have to pay an extra £2.5m if West Ham are relegated from the Premier League, because of the club's lease agreement for London Stadium.www.bbc.co.uk
The public got absolutely rinsed on this stadium deal.
Although I didn't want us to move, I did at least respect Levy for demanding that we flatten it and build a new stadium if we agreed to move there.
Agreed though that does make me believe that Levy was serious about pursuing the opportunity and not just messing about for leverage.
I will also say, the bad luck the project had is that the two best options for the stadium were a new home for Woolwich or a replacement for Wembley (or maybe both), but both of those projects were already financed and actively under construction when London won the bid, so those options were off the table.
But no shovel should have ever been stuck in the dirt in Stratford without the permanent anchor football tenant (or tenants) selected, financially committed, and actively involved in the process.
I love the idea that the whole country has somehow become West Ham fans this week...
Conveniently forgetting that their vile Fanbase has come out with such corkers as this:

...and not forgetting the evergreen Classic: "I'd rather be a Paki than a Jew!"
Classy...
But that's right football, you get your support behind them, 'cos you ALL wanna see Tottenham relegated!
IF and WHEN we stay up, the internet is gonna be a fucking ghost town!

Lincoln away ole ole.
West Ham have been in that position many times. Made me feel sorry for having to deal with that and of course the Olympic stadium and the peado owner.
Still they will get a proper derby next season, Millwall. Let’s be honest we were always their surrogate Millwall as they never play them.

Bless that little lad on his Dad’s shoulders crossing his arms. Fuck you Sky, he didn’t cry, good boy 
Nuno did say he'd make us proud.
And a meaning less 3:0 winGotta feel sorry for west ham, going down with 39 points.
