Ludo to be reimbursed for tickets
The former goalkeeper told West Ham fans at a Hammers Heroes event last night in Hornchurch that he paid for Hammers tickets while getting Spurs and Arsenal tickets for free.
Today the club called Ludo and got to the bottom of the situation. It appears he obtained the tickets some weeks ago through a friend who had a contact in the ticket office – who has since left the club.

They are now taking the necessary steps to resolve the issue for Ludo.
