London: West Ham United yesterday vowed to ban for life any fans found to have taken part in an attack on the Manchester United team bus before their key Premier League game.

“We are aware that there were some supporters outside the Boleyn Ground who didn’t act in an appropriate way when the Manchester United team bus was damaged. That was not acceptable and we will work with the police to identify those responsible and ban them for life,” the club said in a statement.
West Ham co-chairman David Sullivan had initially blamed United for the delay to kick-off, saying they should have arrived earlier at the ground.
