West Ham Chief Condemns Columbus Brawl
The pre-season exhibition game at Crew Stadium involved 30 supporters of West Ham and about three times that number of fans of the home side.
A scuffle broke out between the two sets of supporters and one arrest was made. No injuries were reported to police or medical staff, but West Ham have strongly condemned the actions of both sets of fans.
Scott Duxberry acknowledged the gravity of the isolated incident, but vowed not to let the actions of a significant minority spoil an otherwise successful trip for the club.
He told the press: “While we take such matters seriously and utterly condemn the actions of those involved, we must not let this mar what has been a positive trip so far and the excellent way we and our supporters have been treated in Columbus.”
