Liverpool fans in for rude awakening at London Stadium
The game went on general sale today and Liverpool fans have flooded fans forums telling others they just need to register on West Ham’s ticketing website and buy a ticket.
Many Reds have taken to social media using their real names to boast the sections, rows and even seat numbers they have bought tickets in but they will soon be in for a rude awakening.
West Ham’s ticket office has vowed to cancel any tickets that have been sold to Liverpool supporters in the Hammers home end.
Although the club does carry out some address checks to prevent potential abuse it is an impossible task to vet all supporters whether they are a Liverpool or West Ham supporter solely from an address. With thousands of Liverpool supporters living in London, the issue is further compounded in spotting away fans buying tickets in home sections.
As well as cancelling any tickets from reports from social media the club together with the Stadium operator has vowed to reject entry to any supporter wearing Liverpool branded clothing or shirts attempting to access a home areas on the evening game as well as ejecting any Liverpool supporter found or reported to stewards in the home end who has evaded them.
