Irons fans get club bans

A total of 38 fans have been banned by the club in the aftermath of the disorder against Chelsea earlier this season.

According to reports this morning a total of 97 fans were giving their marching orders after CCTV  footage had been studied.

But vice chairman Karren Brady CBE confirmed to Claret and Hugh this morning: “The number of fans banned for Chelsea was 38, not 100!”

Chelsea return to the London Stadium on Monday for a Premier League clash where a ‘five-point plan’ to tackle any issues will be in place.

West Ham have largely curbed hooliganism inside their 57,000-seater ground since the 2-1 win on October 26, but the game retains the highest possible security category.

As we reported yesterday (Tues) beyond the five point plan introduced after the previous EFL game game against Chelsea in October the club, operators and police are planning no extra precautions.
