EPL Club West Ham Reveals Claret And Blue Seating Design For Olympic Stadium

EPL side West Ham Vice-Chair Karren Brady has revealed how the club plans to put its "claret and blue stamp on the Olympic Stadium" ahead of the '16-17 Premier League season, according to Ashley Clements of the London DAILY MAIL. The soon-to-be home of the Hammers will feature the club's name "emblazoned across the impressive East Stand" as Brady and Co. look to make a change to the current black and white seating design. The new club crest will also be featured in the lower tiers of the stadium as the east London club continues to "put the final touches on the now famous landmark." Brady released an official video via the club's YouTube channel to "reveal more images of the stadium and give fans a glimpse of the future." Brady wanted to reassure fans tuning into next month's Rugby World Cup that the Olympic Stadium will "look almost entirely different" by '16 as the arena prepares to host five matches during the tournament in its current form. Brady: "It's important that West Ham fans understand, while the Rugby World Cup is on there will be a pause in construction. So what you see during the Rugby World Cup is certainly not what we're going to be move into in 2016" (DAILY MAIL, 8/27).
