Video: Matchday Vlog – Spurs v Irons

It’s never easy to find something positive to say on what was ultimately a disappointing day but I have to say that Tottenham were very lucky yesterday although we contributed to our own downfall.

What started out as a positive day full of hope turned quite sour and as you will see from the footage West Ham fans were made to feel very unwelcome by all in N17.

I find it quite extraordinary that considering the bad press us hammers fans have received for our behavior there seemed to be an ‘anything goes’ code on the Seven Sisters Road.

Certainly what I encountered yesterday was far more intimidating than anything I’ve witnessed and the London Stadium but for some reason that is not newsworthy.

Anyway, all of this made it incredibly hard to swallow the injury time defeat and made for a very unpleasant journey home.

    Increasingly they try to threaten random away fans queuing to get in.Yesterday one of their vermin kept trying to lung through the police cordon and was just pushed back instead of being arrest for threatening behaviour etc.
    Seen clips of them hitting Gooner fans queuing up as well.
    Always tough guys when they have the numbers.Meek as lambs when they are away to WH.
