West Ham: Fans still unhappy two years on from day some stormed onto pitch in protest
It is two years since West Ham lost 3-0 to Burnley at the London Stadium (BBC Sport). Few cared about the scoreline that day however as fans protests stole the headline as some stormed onto the pitch and chanted in front of the director’s box.
Fans were unhappy with owners David Sullivan, Karren Brady, and David Gold as they felt that the three cared more about the club from a business aspect rather than from a footballing aspect. The protests saw fans pulling out and attempting to take the corner flags out whilst club captain Mark Noble grabbed fans who were running onto the pitch to try and help stewards in restraining them.
It was a crazy day in the Premier League, with one fan referring to it as a ‘dark day’, and it is one that will hopefully not happen again. But two years on and nothing has changed, many Hammers fans are still unhappy with the board, but protests have taken a more peaceful stance (The Telegraph).
Here is what fans had to say on the day in question:
On this day two years ago West Ham were beaten 3-0 at the London Stadium by Burnley.
The match was secondary to what happened in the stadium with fans running on the pitch and confronting the owners in the most toxic atmosphere I’ve witnessed as a fan.

I thought the initial running on the pitch at 1-0 down was stupid killed the game
Protests at the end fine but don’t ruin the game for everyone there
Noble was in the right could be anyone on the pitch you don’t know

It was a day when I looked around the stadium and thought that the club had just gone. It was a culmination of the then unraveling of our football club to which it still has not recovered. Thinking back, the whole thing was just quite sad. What were your memories of this day?

Worst experience I’ve ever had at a West Ham match and I remember the Bond Scheme protests

The picture of Trevor Brooking is both inspiring and heartbreaking. The safest man in the stadium!
