WEST HAM were under pressure today to take action after one of the club’s youth coaches allegedly attended a far-right march in London at the weekend and expressed his support for the Democratic Football Lads Alliance (DFLA).
Under-18 coach Mark Phillips wrote on his Twitter feed last Friday: “Stratford. 11am. If you know, you know.”
This was then followed after by another tweet after the DFLA had marched through the capital, reading: “Good turnout as usual from the West Ham fans today in W1. Always the biggest [party]. Fair due to Millwall as well good show south London.”
