LONDON FALLING

Heads on block as basketcase clubs do battle in 'El Sackico'

- BY NEIL MCLEMAN

TOTTENHAM and West Ham share more than a bitter rivalry and recently winning European trophies.

Both managers are under huge pressure going into today's London derby after poor transfers and worse results have fuelled fan unrest.

West Ham have gone 10 league games without a win and are seven points from safety in 18th place.
