This letter has been sent today as a follow up to previous correspondence.
Jake Heath,
Supporter Services Manager,
WHUFC.,
London Stadium,
London E20 2ST.
September 11th 2019.
Dear Jake,
Manchester City Supporters in Home sections.
Just to remind you of our Email dated August 23rd and your reply that you were reviewing our enquiry and that you would come back to us as soon as possible.
In the absence of a further reply Jake we ask if you have made any progress so that assurances can be made to our members, and indeed to all West Ham supporters, that the club is taking the necessary steps to avoid a recurrence.-There were also reports of Norwich City supporters(in colours)in the West Ham sections at the next match.
There is a real concern amongst some of our members that on another day this could lead to trouble and that supporters including children could be put at risk.The next home match is against Manchester United and there is of course history of trouble between elements of the two fanbases.
Looking forward to a positive reply,
Lee Rogers.(Joint Secretary,Hammers United).
Copy sent to Football Supporters Association,Premier League and London Stadium.

Was at the corporate entrance before the Palace match, two elderly blokes both wearing Hull City coaches coats walk up to get their comp tickets. I have no problem with them doing that in the corporate section. Just seemed a bit strange.

Looks like those busy fucking trainspotting twonks at Hammers United are doing a sterling job if attacking the issues that really matter - a couple of away fans in the wrong end.
Fucking hell. No wonder the club give you chumps short shrift. You're an embarrassment.

Can’t imagine there will be any issues today with it being Palace.
East Stand Plank will be gutted, he’ll have to chat up the home fans instead.

Haha dan did you tell him that you was aiming at at Fulham? He’s got to let you off after that
I dunno if he was doing a chicken impersonation but I seem to remember KIA getting into a barney once in chav corner.

Who was it on here that got into a massive public row in Chav Corner - did they do some sort of chicken impression? It's all a bit vague in my memory now as it was a few years back.
Gave me a right laugh at the time - moreso when I realised it was someone on here.

That was me. I was verr drunk and had absolutely no hope of getting that pie on target. The bloke, to be fair, calmed down fairly quickly after I slurred an apology.

Dear Jake,
Away Fans in West Ham sections of the ground.
We thank you for your Email dated September 26th and note your comments ‘The Club are wholly satisfied with their safety & securityprocess and will take appropriate action should any visiting supporter be found in the home sections of the Stadium.’Unfortunately Jake we had numerous reports from our members of Manchester United supporters in home sections at the match on September 22nd..Itis clear to all-except perhaps the club,that their safety and security process is inadequate.
We would once again Jake suggest the following:-
A review to be undertaken of the current processes to conclude if they remain fit for purpose given their current failings.
An additional training session addressing the levels of understanding of the existing processes with those persons andthe entities they represent prior to the next home game, with all parties signing an undertaking that they have understood them.
Collateral is distributed to visiting clubs’ supporters groups advising of the processes in place, the personal risksto welfare and the potential for being ejected for attempting to sit in the home ends
We also remind you again of the legal obligation of both the Club and its agents regarding the safety of both West Ham and any offending away supporters’ safety, which we urge is given the appropriate level of consideration and attention to provide somesubstance to your assurances.
Jake,our members have genuine concerns and we need the club to take these concerns seriously.Hammers United would be willing tomeet and assist you in every way possible to alleviate these concerns.
Best Regards.
Lee Rogers.
Joint Secretary,Hammers United.

Funniest i ever saw was in Chav corner, think against Fulham.
They took the lead and there was a mob in the box above us started celebrating
So a few West Ham in front of us started to remonstrate and one threw his Balti pie which missed the target by a mile and ended up down the jacket of one of ours in the back row.
Promptly kicked off with egos damaged all round and everyone forgot the Fulham lot in the box who must have been pissing themselves laughing.

Asian kid sitting by himself near me was blatantly a Man U fan. To be fair to him, he did stand up and applaud our goals and otherwise sat there keeping himself to himself, but it was fucking obvious.

Three blokes who looked like reasonably well-off middle eastern Arabs sat in front of me today. Not season ticket holders and (I thought) nailed on Manc fans. I kind of got the hump but at least they weren't wearing colours.
Anyway, when Yarm slid the ball into the net they went fucking potty celebrating with the rest of us. It was actually really nice to see.
