Unless I missed it, I didn't see any evidence of West Ham apologising to us.

I think the stuffing we gave them was enough ...

But mind you ... us being made to walk miles back to Stratford International because the Police had closed off the direct route because of problems with some of the home fans... they should be apologising
:D :D :D

No, you didn't miss it, amazing those three didn't try blaming us. They've tried to blame everyone else.

Newcastle is fine, much rather be to high than to low, i.e lower tier at Goodison.

Newcastle isn't exactly a 'crap' view - it's just exceedingly high up. I imagine the seats at the back are actually further from the goal line at the London Stadium but that would be a guess.

I went to both last season and had a decent enough view at both tbh. I was right behind Barnes opener at West Ham and had a great view of the impromptu clowns entertaining everyone on the pitch there too!

Apologising? No need for them to apologise for me. One of my best and most enjoyable away days ever, courtesy of a 3-0 away win, against the oh so self important Karen Brady's lot and London Stadium squatters.

Plus the hilarious bit of cabaret some of their fans treated us to. Oh how we laughed.

They’ve moved quicker than Lancs Police dealing with those German fans.
