Ian Abrahams shares new footage of West Ham fan protest from London Stadium
West Ham supporters’ protests are well underway ahead of the game against Crystal Palace.
The protest has lined the route along Marshgate Lane from Pudding Mill Lane station down to the directors’ entrance to the London Stadium.
It is expected to last until around 15 minutes before kick-off, with West Ham fans demanding changes in the hierarchy.
David Sullivan has been asked to step down as West Ham chairman, and demonstrations will likely intensify should the Hammers lose to Crystal Palace.
West Ham supporters gather in their numbers at London Stadium
A lot is going on in East London at the moment, with managerial candidates being lined up should West Ham choose to sack Graham Potter.
However, supporters are wondering whether it is all smoke and mirrors from the hierarchy, who will be keen to divert attention away from their failures.
This hasn’t stopped supporters lining the streets in protest of the way that the club is being run.
talkSPORT broadcaster and reporter Ian ‘Moose’ Abrahams shared footage of the protests prior to the game against Palace.
- David Sullivan has shown he has no intention of stepping down
- Karren Brady stirred the pot in the summer by blaming PSR for the lack of signings
Supporters have been heard chanting “sack the board” and “stand up if you hate the board” throughout the day.
Thousands of fans have gathered before the game and can be seen in the footage with a banner saying “sold our soul”.
Unrest began over the summer, with the Hammers failing to land key transfer targets and address positions of concern.
Concerns intensified after West Ham’s 3-0 defeat to Tottenham last weekend, with floods of supporters leaving the London Stadium when the visitors scored their third in the 64th minute.
West Ham fans could boycott London Stadium in next few weeks
Supporters have felt let down by Sullivan since the Irons won the Europa Conference League in 2023.
The togetherness of that squad has been ripped apart, and multiple managerial failures and transfer failures have proven costly.
With Potter almost certain to be sacked, the West Ham hierarchy will no doubt fail to find a suitable candidate to replace him.
No manager in their right mind would want to manage a squad that has been let down by the owners and lacks any depth in all parts of the pitch.
