Fans protest outside London Stadium
FANS of Tottenham Hotspurs and West Ham United will put aside their rivalries this weekend and unite in protest against their clubs’ concessionary tickets policies.
Two independent fan-led campaign groups — West Ham’s Save Our Concessions and Spurs’ Save Our Seniors — plan to meet in solidarity on Saturday morning to begin the protest.
As the players walk out onto the pitch at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium before kick off at 12.30pm, the home and away fans plan on releasing hundreds of black balloons, signalling their displeasure at the club’s reduction in the number of concessionary season tickets.
