I thought Jonathan Liew in the Telegraph put it very well


"Let us be clear about this. We are not talking about a few isolated crooners here. A significant proportion of West Ham's travelling support participated. The press box at White Hart Lane is roughly 60 yards from the away end. The songs rang out loudly and clearly.


Tottenham have a significant proportion of Jewish fans. So do West Ham, as if that matters. This is not a question of identity, or racial pride. It is a lack of manners, compounded by a lack of education, compounded by a lack of fundamental human dignity."


Was disappointed both managers chose to be so equivocal as well

Hard to believe this pondlife can't be identified and arrested - there are HD cameras all over the place which could be turned around and focused on any crowd section where there is racist chanting without breaching anyone's human rights etc.


It's not just offensive it's a crime and lip reading has been used in the past to ID offenders. They should be ID'd and dealt with in the same way rioters and looters were - an early morning wake-up call and a picture in the paper.

Especially Allardyce, who, when asked about the chants by jourmos, said "What do you want me to say?", well Mr. Allardyce it would have been nice if you'd said how disgusted he was with a section of his own fans. Perhaps I'm being naive.

West Ham aren't alone here, a couple of year's ago whilst at WHL a considerable amount of Everton fans made hissing noises etc, in the past I have confronted these idiots but mostly to little avail. Puts me off going away, as these fixtures attract the bigots. Scum.

Fair play to you for having a go though, I have to admit I'd want to have a go, but would probably keep my head down and not risk trouble.


You really do wonder whether these morons actually give any thought whatsoever to what they are saying / doing. You almost hope not, because then they are just total morons. If they really do think gas chambers are funny, then that's a lot scarier. Either way they should be banned from all grounds for life.

My personal opinion on this (which will never happen)is that they should shrink the Champions League to include just CHAMPIONS", and make the Europa league a better competition. They should definintely stop adding the knocked out teams of one in to the other, that undervalues the EL more than anything IMO.

Made me check the details but I was at the 1984 semi Man U v Juventus. Was working in Manchester and got a ticket at face value just before k.o. Juve had Rossi, Platini and Boniek. 1-1 draw. Sadly the United scorer was a little known guy called Alan Davies who some years later comitted suicide.

      Two wrongs might not make a right. But the two wrongs could at least be of equal value before we get too judgey    paying an estate agent to deal with all of the admin on my to have the estate agent not point out all of the admin  vs Deliberately hacking into an MPs email. And boasting about it (Badenoch)    as for throwing a local estate agent under the bus, when did local estate agents become the good guys?   doesn’t sound like estate agents are being thrown under a bus - they are fessing up. And Reeves doesn’t look to have done anything wrong  yet people will still believe the worst anyway    https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/oct/30/rachel-reeves-row-standards-adviser-looking-at-new-infomation?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

      Harvey and Wheeler in Dulwich Village? Only one I know… How can they offer to apply and never did? Surely; whether they are managing the property or not and with tech been so advanced I would have thought they would have been a couple of e mails sent as a reminder or, is it the Landlord’s responsibility to apply… Rental Law/ Bill has just come  into force  - can’t remember if it was this week or last and have been to busy to read.. However, will as assume it is not individual councils but all councils. Came up on Which on line.. Good point Jen Jen Jen - sure some knowledgable person on here can throw more light than I.

      Does this mean then that anybody who rents out their home in East Dulwich needs one of these licenses? And does everyone of these landlords have one?
