West Ham are going to be asked to contribute to the cost of policing the London Stadium on match days.
This follows the need for a dramatically increased police presence at the Stratford ground following the trouble at West Ham's matches there this season.
The bargain-of-the-century tenancy agreement that West Ham negotiated with their London Legacy Development Corporation landlords for the 25-days-a-year use states that all policing and stewarding costs are met by the LLDC. West Ham pay only a peppercorn rent of £2.5million a season.
However, such have been the outbreaks of hooliganism at the start of West Ham's first season at the London Stadium that the LLDC feel they have a strong case for West Ham to pay for some of the unanticipated extra police costs.
