London Stadium bosses have started to dish out bans and revoke season tickets of West Ham fans identified engaging in ‘anti-social behaviour’ during last week’s EFL Cup win over Chelsea.
Club and stadium chiefs have trawled CCTV footage to pick out offenders from the marred London derby and are now writing to supporters to inform them of their punishments.
They expect to ban up to 200 fans in a major crackdown at the former Olympic Stadium.
Those alleged to have been involved are warned that if they attempt to return to the ground they will ‘be apprehended and prosecution may follow’.
