West Ham chief Sullivan blasts Spurs: There will be riots in streets

West Ham United co-owner David Sullivan says Tottenham are treading dangerous ground with their bid for the London Olympic stadium.

Sullivan has warned there will be riots in east London if rivals Tottenham move to the Olympic Park stadium after the Games.

Sullivan fears 'civil unrest' due to massive opposition from football fans in the West Ham heartland to Tottenham's proposed relocation.

He told the Daily Mail: "It would be such a slap in the face to east London. If it happens, there will be real problems that could easily lead to civil unrest.

"I think there could be riots, such is the ill feeling between West Ham and Spurs and I know the police feel the same."
