Kevin Milne joined Jack Tame to tell an interesting little story about his son's experience watching his favourite side West Ham playing in London last week.
He ended up sitting next to a wheelchair bound West Ham fan in the Wheelchair Access area.
The guy's first question to my son Jake was "What's your favourite West Ham chant." Jake replied, "Stand up if you hate Tottenham, stand up." As the words are coming out his mouth, Jake panics, thinking he's been really thoughtless given he's talking to a guy who can't stand up;
Turned out it was the other guy's favourite chant too.
It's a funny and slightly moving story of British football fans.
