 "West Ham wants Olympic Stadium")
London: English Championship side West Ham Friday submitted a new bid to move to the Olympic Stadium after the 2012 Games. The former English premier league outfit failed to reach a deal last year with London’s Newham Council. They were one of 16 parties to enter a government tender process, with bidders given until Friday to submit proposals, Xinhua reported. ‘Hammers’ vice-chairman Karren Brady said any move was conditional on the stadium being “fit for world-class football and feels like home to our deserving fans.” [caption id=“attachment_254333” align=“alignleft” width=“380” caption=“English Championship side West Ham Friday submitted a new bid to move to the Olympic Stadium after the 2012 Games.
