West Ham chief Karren Brady insists spectator safety is their priority after this week's trouble.

Brady says West Ham did all they could to prevent crowd trouble in their EFL Cup game with Chelsea on Wednesday night.

Writing in her column for The Sun, Brady said that the Hammers' pre-match planning was meticulous but they were undone by "completely unacceptable behaviour".

"Ahead of the game, as a club, we did everything in our power to restrict and minimise potential problems," she said.

We worked tirelessly day and night with the safety and security teams at London Stadium and the Metropolitan Police Service to ensure that every potential risk was assessed and prepared for.

"Without question, we could have sold out the stadium twice over but the safety of our supporters is always our primary concern."
