FA fines Spurs over homophobic chants
Briefly

After the game at Old Trafford on September 29, Tottenham Hotspur's management strongly condemned the "abhorrent homophobic chanting," emphasizing that it was unacceptable and offensive.
In an email sent to season ticket holders prior to the match against West Ham, the club reiterated their commitment to a zero-tolerance approach toward discrimination, stating their stewards would be wearing body cams to monitor and identify offenders.
The FA charged Tottenham Hotspur for allegedly breaching FA Rule E21, citing misconduct related to crowd control, particularly for offensive chanting during the 49th and 79th minutes of the match.
Historically, the FA has penalized clubs for homophobic chanting by fans, highlighting a pattern of repeated offences, particularly the offensive "rent boy" chant that has persisted in football culture.
