Mark Noble has never hidden his thoughts, particularly as captain of West Ham United, and he was at centre stage during last weekend’s unsavoury scenes.

During the team’s 3-0 defeat to Burnley at the London Stadium, individual supporters forced their way onto the pitch to protest against the club’s board.

One of the incidents saw Noble grappling with a fan, who was pushed to the floor by the visibly angry midfielder.

Co-owners David Sullivan and David Gold were targeted verbally with angry chants from groups of supporters in the stadium.

Tottenham Hotspur fans were among the rivals who found the scenes amusing, but serious action is expected to be taken by the club.

Noble has now issued a rallying cry via West Ham's official website stating that the fans need to get behind the team in the final eight games of the season.

The midfielder went on to admit that last Saturday was one of the “toughest days” that he has experienced at the club.

Fans took to Twitter to give their reactions to Noble’s interview.
