What comes after?

It is looking more and more likely that West Ham will move into the Olympic Stadium after the 2012 Games - mainly because they have undertaken to keep the running track, whereas Spurs, who were the other main contender, would not have done so.  It was part of the bid that secured us the Games that the stadium would remain in use afterwards as an athletics venue, so what Spurs wanted to do would have involved us breaking our promise.  Of course, whether it was sensible to make such a promise in the first place, is another matter....
