​West Ham demand changes to London Stadium

West Ham United are set to demand changes to the way the London Stadium is run in an emergency meeting.

The meeting is coming on the heels of serious crowd trouble in the West Ham vs. Burnley clash in the Premier League, which the Hammers lost.

According to Sky Sports, West Ham will meet win the London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC), the London Stadium landlords about the matter.

The Hammers want to be able to use the entire stadium's capacity of 60,000, while the LLDC states the agreement is only for 57,000.

West Ham also want more control over how the stadium is branded, so it can feel like a proper home to the club's supporters.
