A wheelchair-bound Luton fan was shocked when he was told by Tottenham “persistent standing is not allowed” ahead of their Premier League clash.

The supporter – known only as Mark – got his ticket for the match being played tomorrow (30 Mar).

But on the £30 ticket, it states the club’s policy against fans standing during games.

This is despite it also stating his ticket is for a “wheelchair adult.”

Mark posted a photo of it on social media.

He said: “Thanks for the warning ‌Spurs.

“Persistent standing wasn’t actually top of my to-do list.”

Luckily he took it in jest.

He added: “I’d like to add here, this is of course a joke!

“Spurs have been very good to me, providing parking right outside the ground.

“And what I’m hoping will be the best view in the Prem.

“Football away days as a disabled person can be tricky so hats off to Spurs.”

Supporters of both clubs and football fans have chipped in about the red-faced blunder.

Tottenham fan Simon Mostyn said: “Sorry you had to experience this.

“Rather insensitive to say the least.

“I’m a Spurs fan but would implore my club to do better.”

Roberto Mariano said: “Poor from Tottenham.

“At least it’s funny in an appalling way.

Patrick Graham said: “Maybe if we score a goal every ten minutes that might apply…”

Matt added: “Oh dear that’s awkward.”
