With regards to security/stewarding and general stadium management, our move to the London Stadium has been a rocky one. Issues regarding standing and sitting arise every match-day, with some fans even being escorted out for refusing to sit down.
Most recently, a section of season ticket holders have had their "comparable seat" moved for the remainder of the season. Lots of these people are lifelong supporters who have stood watching West Ham at The Boleyn Ground for years and understandably want to continue watching West Ham this way.
Instead of escorting some fans out for standing and not others (including away support) I propose segregated standing is introduced to the London Stadium. Another suggestion may be to implement a 'family section', something which many clubs up and down the country have already done.
Segregated standing can give us season ticket holders and many other fans our choice back, instead of our choice being imposed upon. The board promised to listen to us but so far we are not being heard.
This isn't West Ham United as we know it, we want our club back.

as a supporter for nearly 60 years i've always preffered to stand and so i think if we could have an area for this it would keep everybody happy.
No standing no atmosphere. This is not for me as I sit but for our loud singing loyal fans who used to make the Boleyn a pleasure to be in
I have flown to London from America twice to support West Ham at Upton Park. The things I am hearing about London stadium are making me not want to come back.
Been twice so far. So much is wrong and it needs sorting. We are now in a relegation fight and the team need the crowd to get behind them. Was at Sunderland game in 126 was like a morgue.... Sat amongst tourists who didn't want to sing..... away days until this is sorted
For me the closing of block 114 and then the treatment they got in their new 'seats' is the final straw. The club are always quick to say it's not them but the operators L185 but clearly the club ARE involved in clensing our fans. By the way i'm in the upper seats so not directly effected by this but bloody unhappy about it!
Needs to boost the atmosphere, lift the team and make the opposition wish they weren't there
Back to great atmospheres

It strikes me that it would be a lot safer & certainly stop the agro & how is it that the away supporters can stand throughout the 90 minutes & not get challenged to sit.
