Hammers jump up London arrest table

West Ham have risen up the London table of football related arrests, supporters charged and issues with court football banning orders last season after early troubles at the London Stadium last season. The freedom of information request obtained by Claret and Hugh shows that the Hammers had 56 supporters arrested in total, an increase of 38 on last season and third in the table behind Chelsea and Spurs. However, West Ham did top the table in London when it came to those who went on to be charged after being arrested and also the largest amount who received court football banning orders as a result.
