Und es werden noch mehr…
Die bei Touristen beliebten “split scarfs” wird es im London Stadium ĂĽbrigens nicht mehr geben – wobei die Cockneys ohnehin gern weniger Touristen und mehr echte Irons im Stadion sehen möchten!
According to ChatGPT West Ham’s ban is not a general English-football rule. It is a club/stadium policy.
The background is that West Ham initially introduced the restriction ahead of the September 2025 Tottenham derby as part of heightened security measures. The club said it wanted to prevent away supporters from getting into home sections, alongside extra turnstile checks and other measures. Half-and-half scarves were treated as an obvious visual indicator that someone might support the visiting side.
What has changed is that West Ham has since made the ban permanent. Its current matchday policy says that all half-and-half scarves, and any item showing the colours or crests of both clubs, are prohibited inside London Stadium, regardless of the fixture. Security can confiscate them at the entrance and won’t return them.
