West Ham Bans Half-and-Half Scarves for Tottenham Derby as Security Tightened

The club cites safety concerns over away fans entering home sections.

Overview

  • Items featuring both clubs’ colours or crests will be confiscated at checkpoints and not returned.
  • Enhanced measures include additional turnstile checks to keep home areas for West Ham supporters only.
  • Fans have been asked to allow extra time and show patience during pre‑match screening.
  • The guidance follows concerns over a potentially volatile fixture linked to Mohammed Kudus’ summer move to Spurs and planned protests.
  • Supporters wanting scarves were directed to buy West Ham-only versions from the official stadium store, with kick-off at 17:30 BST on Saturday.
