da betsson: It was revealed on Monday that the Premier League fixture between Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United originally scheduled for December 31 had been moved to January 4.
da marjack bet: The decision to change the date of the match was made due to transport issues affecting London on December 31.
A statement from the Premier League said that the decision had been made following discussions with Tottenham, West Ham and Sky Sports, but it would be fair to say that the fixture change has gone down like a lead balloon with the Spurs fans.
Incredibly, Tottenham will now be forced to travel to Swansea City on January 2, before welcoming West Ham to Wembley less than 48 hours later.
Spurs will then have an FA Cup tie the following weekend during a crowded period of fixtures for Mauricio Pochettino’s side.
Tottenham’s official Twitter account released the news on Monday afternoon, and the Spurs fans were out in force to reveal their unhappiness at the decision.
