Some anniversaries are good and some are unfortunate – how can we view this one as anything other than the latter based on what we’ve seen so far?
Yes, Tuesday marked nine years since the final decision on the fate of the Olympic Stadium was made.
Understandably, masses of fans on social media were in a mournful mood on the day, calling it the day that the club died, where everything started to go wrong for us and the beginning of the end.
It’s a negative outlook considering the short period of time we’ve been in Stratford, but since that announcement was made, we’ve only really had one decent term in the Premier League and how much of that can we put down to it being the Farewell Boleyn campaign?
Maybe one day it will work out…
My heart sank when they announced we’d won the bid. I knew it would be horrendous. I really wish I’d been proven wrong though! 😔

Could have been an amazing opportunity, but as usual, our dreams faded and died in the hands of #GSBOUT
