BBC talks to Claret and Hugh over West Ham troubles

|

BBC Radio 5 producers contacted Claret and Hugh Associate editor Sean Whetstone last to appear on this morning’s Five Live Sunday breakfast show to give witness eye views on yesterday’s London Stadium troubles.

Speaking to BBC presenters Sam Walker and Chris Warburton, Sean explained he thought the trouble was a storm in a teacup pointing out that only four supporters ran onto the pitch from a crowd of over 50,000. He also said the Stadium Operators London Stadium 185 and the sub-contracted four stewarding companies had a lot to answer for their woeful stewarding yesterday as did the London Mayor who supposedly took over the Stadium from the beginning of December last year. I also repeated words said to me by James Collins last night as he left the stadium car park. ‘It has to end or we will never win another game’  I will let you to your own conclusions what ‘it’ is. Listen to the six-minute interview below.
