I answered all those question in my first reply. ;doh
I'm also irritated by the lack of a name at the end of the email.
Dear Supporter Advisory Board Member,
Following the announcement of the planned Supporters’ Forum, which had originally been due to take place on Tuesday 20 September, the Club have received a large number of requests from Hammers fans for a longer lead-time before the meeting, so that they can make themselves available.
As a result, the Club have decided to push back the date of the Forum to 6.30pm on Monday 26 September, to ensure that more fans have the chance to apply to attend, and so we can ensure the fair representation of all views.
The time and location will remain the same:
Location: London Stadium
Doors: 6pm
Event begins: 6.30pm
If you haven’t already registered and you would like do so, please reply to this email with the below information, so we can ensure that all perspectives are represented as spaces are limited:
The games you’ve attended this season
Your seat and block number
The question or issue you would like to raise
Please note the deadline for confirming your interest is at 12 noon on Thursday 22 September.
If you have been selected to attend the Forum, you will be notified on Friday 23 September with full details regarding the forum. Even if you are not present in person, you can rest assured that the issues you have raised will be discussed.

Honestly I think they may of got worse ;nonono
I have a mind to email them and say, thank you for inviting me to your meeting then twice asking me to apply to come to your meeting, then moving your meeting, unfortunately I am now clean out of boverd.
If it were me I would put down one that was a bit mundane that they could answer easily and make them look good - maybe make up that you have received loads of requests regarding the catering - food and drink on offer or something.
The when you are called to ask the question you sent in, stand up and say "Actually I have changed my mind - I have been contacted by a number of interested parties and we want to know what is happening with .........?" And then watch the ensuing panic set in when you badger for a replay when they are not prepared to give you a firm answer of statement.
Torpedo fired, hit and the target is sinking......
Fortunately, you can decline their kind offer, and bring your own sandwiches.
Alternatively, If you'd like to buy a hot dog from a Green Street vendor... well, you know where they are. ;wink
Fortunately there is a reasonably priced café next door to Ye Olde Black Bull where you can get full English for six quid. I leave the new food stalls to the tourists.
1. Permanent Network, there is an order but the PO was only sent last Thursday. Official date to implement (standard lead time) would be May next year. Absolute earliest would be Feb, but that's just not going to happen for this sort of work.
2. Temporary solution was originally refused by both parties as it's not suited to the venue, but discussions have re-opened. Nothing has been agreed let alone ordered.
So the December date being banded about is currently, a complete lie.
Thanks for sharing Eski
;ok
So I'm guessing that when the Olympics finished and the stadium rebuilt, did the original Airwave have to come down then due to construction or was it because the LS185 thought they could get away with not policing 57k+ and take the route that most PL clubs were that police were being reduced in favour of cheaper stewarding options.
Perhaps a bit of both?
Know anything about that
Also I read that there is a mobile van being used with boosters for the signals and that the club, police and LS185 are arguing over the cost?
Which ever party - the club or the land lords - are responsible for fan safety / stewarding / policing in the T&Cs of the rental agreement will have to pay.
Let's not panic quite yet.
Only the FA can make us play behind closed doors, and based on the facts of the situation that really is most unlikely to happen.
The Airwave system wouldn't have made an difference to the events of Wednesday: since a 'temporary' system that does what the Airwave system does was in place and worked perfectly.
Once the trouble kicked off, riot police were on the spot in less than a minute.
A spokesperson for London Stadium Safety Advisory Group said: “The Stadium’s safety certificate was granted after all safety plans were agreed before the start of the season. The extensive security and safety operation implemented by all partners was robust. Therefore, there are no plans to review the safety certificate or to reduce the stadium capacity.

Personally, I don't believe it would have.
I also don't think this sort of behaviour helps any move towards safe standing being considered by the authorities and/or owners and operators of the stadium in the short term.
