Hammers
West Ham are to open talks about moving into London's Olympic Stadium after the Games finish in 2012. Eggert Magnusson, who took control of the Hammers in an £85m deal this week, will meet the government and Olympic authorities to discuss the switch.Magnusson is keen for the move to happen : "It is my dream. "We bought West Ham where we are now - the Boleyn Ground - but looking at the future this is where we want to go."
Magnusson is prepared to accept a deal that would keep a running track at the stadium and see athletics and football staged there.
