West Ham fans have taken to Twitter to react after David Moyes commented on Crystal Palace and their supporters.

Speaking to talkSPORT, the 58-year-old said: “A bit like Palace, they’ve got a great singing section. It would be great if we could get something at West Ham for the young supporters, that’s my hope.”

It’s safe to say they’re in agreement with the Scot.

One fan said that West Ham’s home support is ’embarrassing’ and a singing section would be a welcome addition to the London Stadium.

Another agreed, but was keen to reiterate that they only want to be like the south Londoners off the pitch, not on it!

What are the Crystal Palace fans like?

Whatever you think of the Eagles, there’s no denying that they have a fantastic, passionate set of supporters.

The Selhurst Park faithful often make a raucous atmosphere, while they also aren’t afraid to speak up about issues in football with their displays.

Since West Ham moved to the London Stadium, there is certainly something missing in terms of an atmosphere.

Hopefully, a designated singing section will see a similar atmosphere to the Boleyn Ground at the London Stadium.

If a significant amount of fans start the chants, there’s no reason why it can’t spread around the whole stadium.

Let’s see what the West Ham fans on Twitter have been saying about Moyes’ comments…
