I was thinking the same. There are plenty of precedents for players being sent off for dispensing summary justice to fans of their own teams.

Not sure if the link goes straight to the tweet from a Alex Lancaster and refers to a West Ham fan who has invaded the pitch but looks more like a trendy french/spanish guy
''Sebastian would you mind holding my soy latte for a second, while i make my way down to the grass to give those boys a piece of my mind''

£96m on wages, not sure what the problem is. Constantly in spurs shadow really hurts them.

It was their ‘god’ bilic who has screwed them up, most overrated manager on the planet and spent a lot of money on useless players like zabaleta, hart, and players who don’t care like Arnatovic and Hernandez

Initially I believe they did but were obviously sold the dream and it hasn’t quite worked that way has it.
No it hasn't, but it's hardly the same as us losing the Goldstone.
So what exactly is their beef, just not enough money spent on players?
They (not me) say that Gold/Sullivan/Brady promised that losing their spiritual home and moving, would give the club the income to compete with the top 6, with transfer fee expenditure to match. That didn't materialise.
Hmmmm, shouldn't that be poorly investing?
How many of their players are currently picking up £100+K a week?
Did they really say that? No wonder they're pissed off.
Still, first world problems.

It's not just about the money spent on players. It seems a lot of West Ham fans aren't happy with their stadium. I wouldn't be either - it isn't fit for purpose as a football stadium and looks absolutely gash, what with the fans a massive distance from the pitch.
I think they were chanting today 'we're not the West Ham we were before' or something like that. They feel the soul has been ripped out of their club,
Gold/Sullivan were only ever in it for the money, so it was never going to end well. I remember before Bloom stepped in they were rumoured to be interested in taking over us. We can only be thankful that that never happened.

Their net spend on players is a deficit Southampton would be proud of

It's just another bleedin' heart club, thinking they should be in the PL, because of reputation.
Aside from the supposed top 6, the lesser part of the PL is changing, clubs who've just survived every season, are struggling.
You have to earn the right to be there, as the Albion have done.

I don't get the comparison with our plight at all. This is all about West Ham fans sense of entitlement - they are not, and (in my humble opinion) never will be a top 6 club. They are just about the fourth biggest club in London! But relegation might not be the disaster that they think if the fans keep coming in their present numbers - if they don't they just confirm my view. They have not had the soul taken from their club. The Boleyn was not really expandable. The present board may or may not be woeful but Archer & Co they are most certainly not. Or Oystons for that matter
But the time to complain about that was when they applied for it, not now it's too late to change.
Ouch. Understandable they complain about that.

Sure, but there were fans who weren't happy at the time. Further, Gold/Sullivan sold it as something that it hasn't turned out to be.
