Hammers move from the much beloved Boleyn Ground to the London Stadium has been fraught with problems but they seem to have been resolved more or less, and it is worth remembering that whilst the atmosphere at the Boleyn was incredible, less can be said for the 'facilities' provided for supporters which were spartan at the very least.

Every cloud has a silver lining so the expression goes, and Michail Antonio's red card following two yellows picked up during the draw against Watford might just be a case in point.

Sometimes leaving a regimented regime can be fraught with unforeseen difficulties and when a person hits rock bottom there have been precious few facilities to help.
