Tony Cottee faces potential awkward GSB encounter
The 56-year-old is set to partake in a two-hour West Ham Legends Tour on November 28, which includes a Q&A session with fans.
And considering GSB’s alleged feelings towards Cottee backing PAI’s takeover bid, it could be a really uncomfortable experience for both parties.
Cottee has always been fairly close to the West Ham owners, especially David Gold.
So it’s understandable that GSB may think that the former Hammers striker has somewhat gone behind their back to link up with PAI Capital.
