No popcorn for David Moyes as West Ham boss calls for Government to explain why fans cannot attend games at stadium but can watch Man City clash at cinema 500 metres away

David Moyes has called on the Government to explain why fans cannot watch West Ham’s game against Manchester City in their stadium, but can watch it inside a nearby cinema.

Stratford’s Vue Cinema at the Westfield shopping centre is showing the lunchtime kick-off and Moyes said: ‘I feel it’s not right. People going to watch a game in a cinema, close to here... why can we not be sitting outside in the open air doing it?

‘Maybe there are other reasons — maybe it’s the travelling on the Tube, the bus, maybe it’s the pubs.
