The Pacqueta to Bowen goal was a poor semblance of the Eze to Edouard goal. Eze's pass was better and Edouard's strike was far cleaner and better placed.

Red and Blue Army!

Wasn't it when we used to beat Liverpool?

Red and Blue Army!

I doubt they'll congratulate us.

Red and Blue Army!

Well done to West Ham. However, they may be a bigger club than us but we have better fans, better style and a better team for the small amount we have spent, as well as academy.

They had all the luck the spammers for their European Cup.

Big up the Palace!!!!

And then to Upminister and back to Stratford before Bethnal Green and then to Chelmesdford, borrowing Villa's Claret and Blue theme. Just hope there are no fights with each other, nice blokes they are after all no hooliganaism or naughty behaviour at West Ham.

Big up the Palace!!!!

May seem like sour grapes but this is not the West Ham of Hurst, Moore and Peters being instead a bang average team that flirted with relegation for a good part of the season and played the kind of football that we disliked from Roy’s Palace team a few years ago.
Playing with nine behind the ball in typical Moyes fashion and hoping for a few breaks as the game progresses.
Hardly the stuff of ‘European Champions’ although I know some will say there’s no single way to win a game.
Bowen is a decent player but Moyes has him playing like an auxiliary full back for most of the game.
It seems reasonable for a Luton or Sheffield Utd to play like this but not a team averaging crowds of nearly 60,000 and spending over £180 million in the transfer market .
