West Ham and Spurs fans unite to get nasty posters kicked off Twitter

West Ham United and Tottenham fans have come together to get two Twitter users kicked off the social media platform for ugly tweets posted yesterday.

The apparent Spurs 'fans' posted nasty tweets aimed at Everton and Liverpool over the Hillsborough disaster and West Ham regarding the passing of Dylan Tombides.

Driven by @WestHam_Central, fans began retweeting the vile messages yesterday calling for action from Tottenham and also Twitter.

Spurs fans were quick to post to 'WestHam_Central' offering their support and insisting the pair were no true supporters of Tottenham.

And this morning, there was success.

Twitter quickly responded, suspending both accounts, while Spurs are being urged to also take action.
