As West Ham United continue to impress on the field, it appears Hammers supporters have something else to celebrate as the club confirm some 'great news' off it.

David Moyes' men have started 2021/2022 in sublime fashion as they currently sit fourth in the Premier League table whilst topping their Europa League group.

They also knocked English champions Man City out of the Carabao Cup in the last 16 on Wednesday, a competition which the Sky Blues had previously dominated for nearly half a decade.

It is truly a wonderful time to be a West Ham fan and the club may have given supporters something more to celebrate as they confirm an off-field development.

Indeed, as now officially announced, the Irons have been granted planning permission to increase the London Stadium's capacity to 62,500 - with an extra 2,500 to be released once the 'safety certificate application has been completed' (whufc.com).

Once the work is completed, it will take the London Stadium's capacity past the likes of Tottenham and Arsenal's grounds - officially making it the biggest club arena in the English capital.

Taking this into account, not to mention the increased capacity allowing more Irons supporters to attend, it's little wonder many supporters have gone wild for this news on Twitter.

Find all of their excited verdicts down below.
