Despite heavy security and police presence, tickets checks, the banning of half and half scarves and checking for Arsenal shirts under coats at bridges, many hundreds of [Arsenal](https://www.claretandhugh.info/west-ham-0-1-arsenal-three-key-takeaways-as-hammers-stitched-up-by-var/) supporters are thought to have beaten the checks and purchased tickets in the home section.
### Multiple fights broke out at the London Stadium yesterday as Arsenal’s late 83rd minute goal went in.
One of the scuffles broke out in the West stand corporate section and London Stadium stewards waded in to eject Arsenal supporters celebrating their goal.
Social media is awash with videos of scuffles and ‘ejections’ of Arsenal fans from home supporter areas.
### Police arrested four supporters, but more arrests and bans are likely to follow.
According to unconfirmed reports one London Stadium steward was seriously assaulted resulting in a broken arm.
In a statement, the Met Police said: _“Met offices arrested four people at the London Stadium on Sunday, 10 May following the fixture between West Ham United and Arsenal._
_“Two men – aged 48 and 36 – were arrested on suspicion of affray and assault, while one teenage boy was arrested on suspicion of racially aggravated assault. All were taken into custody where they remain. Police continue to work with the football club while enquiries into the respective incidents continue._
_“Another man, aged 31, was arrested for possession of a Class B substance._”

London Stadium and West Ham operations staff will now be reviewing high-definition CCTV footage to identity those involved which will result in Stadium bans and perhaps further arrests.
Claret and Hugh understand that the West Ham ticket office is reviewing any West Ham season tickets that allowed their ticket to be knowingly used by an Arsenal supporter which may result in London Stadium bans for breaching ground regulations.
Supporters who sold their tickets via Ticket Exchange will not be held accountable.
The incidents will be carefully reviewed by Newham council’s London Stadium Safety Advisory Group who issues the safety certificate for football games_. Of particular concern will be footage of an Arsenal fan being thrown down the stairs of the upper tier which could have resulted in a serious injury or even death had he gone over the barrier at the bottom._
