West Ham have handed a lifetime ban to the supporter involved in a clash with Jake Livermore.

The incident occurred during the recent Premier League clash with West Brom.

Livermore was involved in an angry exchange with a supporter who reportedly made a comment about the death of his infant son.

The West Brom midfielder attempted to make his way into the stands before being restrained by stewards and sent down the tunnel.

Livermore faced no FA action over the incident but was reminded of his responsibilities.
