22nd March 2004 - Millwall v West Ham
The Sun Online :
Eight police horses charged on to the pitch and riot cops had to stamp out aggro by shameful Hammers fans, who saw their team taken apart. The violence was triggered by keeper Stephen Bywater’s sending off in the 60th minute of a volatile derby clash. Upton Park boss Pardew said: “You can’t condone that behaviour. But, by the same token the frustration that was coming from the pitch was always going to make our fans edgy. “We have to take responsibilty for that.”
Trouble flared when around 200 of the 2,900 visiting supporters attempted to bust through security cordons to get at rival fans. Scuffles broke out with stewards and some of the 1,100 officers on duty for the biggest police operation in British football history, costing £270,000.
And a huge-anti racism banner was ripped up. Two Hammers fans were arrested inside the ground for smashing up the toilets and a further three were ejected for causing disorder.

Cardiff City fans were attacked in a pub by football hooligans from West Ham United, who travelled to a match in Bournemouth they were not even involved in, police have said. The 50 London hooligans hired a coach and travelled 115 miles to spark a mass brawl before Cardiff's Coca-Cola Cup tie on Tuesday night.
Police are now studying CCTV footage ahead of the league match in Cardiff with West Ham next Tuesday. Dorset Police made four arrests. A Cardiff fan in his mid 20s suffered a broken jaw after being struck by a brick and needed hospital treatment. A second Bluebirds' fan was treated for facial injuries.
Police said that the London hooligans posed as ordinary customers at the Queens Park pub close to Bournemouth's stadium. But on cue, they launched into a rendition of I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles, West Ham's trademark song, and started fighting.
The brawl spilled outside and, after a wall was demolished, bricks were thrown. A dozen police officers who were on patrol outside the pub managed to control the trouble and made four arrests.
Inspector Martin Webster of Dorset said Tuesday night's trouble had been well-organised on the part of West Ham hooligans. He said the men were dressed in designer clothing. "Normally with these sort of things we get some sort of prior warning from a network of football intelligence-led police officers. "But we received no information even though it appeared to be very well organised on the part of the fans from London.
"They hired a coach specifically to drive them from London to Bournemouth. They liaised with each other beforehand as they were not wearing their teams' colours. "It appears the Cardiff supporters did not arrange to meet them. "They came here to have a few drinks and then watch the football. On the whole they were well behaved. "But at around 7pm between 35 and 50 people got off the coach and went to the Queens Park pub."
A barman at the pub said: "A coach load from London pulled up and came in and started mingling and acting as normal punters. "Then a few minutes later they started singing I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles, and with that all hell broke loose. "It was absolute chaos with people with blood down their faces. It spilled outside and the fighting carried on."
Four coach loads of Cardiff fans and other supporters in cars had travelled down for the game,
Gwyn Davies of the Valleys Rams supporters' club said there was "pandemonium" in the pub. "About 20 or 30 West Ham fans burst in - a few others had been at the bar beforehand. "Our fans defended themselves, and also there were old men there, women and children.
"It was crazy, there was no warning - it was a mild evening and I'd been out in the beer garden talking to police from Cardiff and Bournemouth."
Mr Davies said he believed that the supporter with the broken jaw would need three operations.
A Bournemouth supporter who saw the group moments before the violence started said: "They appeared quite drunk and rowdy.
"I thought it was odd because they had London accents and none of them were wearing any football colours."
Police have arrested two men from London and two from the Bournemouth area for public order offences. They are aged between 19 and 30.
Officers are also examining CCTV footage in a bid to identify the troublemakers and will also report the incident to South Wales Police ahead of Cardiff's game in the Championship against West Ham on 2 November.
But Mr Davies said he did not think there would be trouble.
"We've not had trouble in Cardiff for a good while, the police have got the situation well under control.
"We heard one West Ham fan bragging that they had come down on Tuesday night as that was their chance, as they would not be able to do the same next week."

Some 900 officers were policing the London derby clash between West Ham and Millwall.
Public order-trained officers from across the capital joined forces with British Transport Police and City of London police officers ahead of the 12am kick-off at Upton Park.
The police said they were sending a clear message to fans they wanted to ensure the game passed peacefully.
Superintendent Andy McKechnie, from Newham police, said: "Our overall aim is to facilitate the fans' travel to and from the match and create a safe environment for them to sit and enjoy the event.
"We have been working closely with both clubs to ensure this happens.
"However, we will not tolerate troublemakers and will be taking action against anyone causing problems."
He said the police were impressed by steps both clubs had taken to curb "anti-social behaviour".
Police were trying to stop Millwall fans watching the match from home support areas.
