YouTuber JaackMaate wishes he could turn off fame at West Ham as it gets 'hostile'
YouTube star and die-hard West Ham fan JaackMaate says he wishes he could turn off his fame at Hammers games as it can sometimes get “quite hostile”.The podcaster and presenter, whose real name is Jack Dean, told the Daily Star: “I love West Ham, the club and the fans. But there are certain groups of people who don't like me for whatever reason, whether it’s working with the club that I love… some fans disagree and say I don't deserve that platform.”Jack, who has two West Ham tattoos and was even inked by Jesse Lingard after he bagged nine goals during his loan spell at the club, has religiously followed the East London side since he was a kid.He explained: “I might be a known person, but I’ve been a West Ham fan way before all of that came.“I wish at football games I could just be a West Ham fan like everyone else and not be someone people dislike.”Jack’s football interest goes beyond West Ham and he was previously involved in trying to hire Gary Lineker for a Brew City beer campaign.
