# West Ham fans loving it as David Gold makes fun of Tottenham after Brighton

Tottenham Hotspur suffered yet another defeat in the early kick-off on Saturday, with Brighton beating Mauricio Pochettino’s side 3-0.

Spurs lost goalkeeper Hugo Lloris to an awful injury and would go down 3-0 to Graham Potter’s side.

West Ham fans were quick to make jokes about Spurs’ defeat, with David Gold taking to Twitter to make a mockery of Tottenham.

Several West Ham fans responded to Gold, with some liking the joint chairman’s comments.

However, some fans were more interested in getting ready for the clash with Palace, and hope that Gold hasn’t jinxed the result.

West Ham fans certainly will hope that David Gold’s comments don’t jinx things ahead of the clash with Crystal Palace later.

Spurs are certainly now in crisis, with questions hanging over the future of Pochettino at the club.

The Hammers chances of reaching Europe have certainly increased as a result.
