Ringing 999 because @WestHamUtd have lost again and you aren’t sure what to do is not acceptable! It is a complete waste of our time. #999foremergenciesonly

Essex Police have urged West Ham fans to stop calling 999 after poor results.
Essex police tweeted “Ringing 999 because West Ham have lost again and you aren’t sure what to do is not acceptable! It is a complete waste of our time. #999foremergenciesonly“
However Claret and Hugh understand that Essex Police are exaggerating the problem to get cheap publicity and just one call was made to the police control room by a frustrated fan after the 2-0 defeat by Watford on Sunday.
