An excellent article.
Oh for those days again.
It is sad how far we have fallen from then and it is hard to see such days returning for a long time.

Many thanks for the link, I'll always remember Big Sam's first home game versus Crewe, it was on our shared birthday, his 45th and my 50th! Little did we as supporters know that the 2-2 draw that night was the prelude to such a fantastic period in the club's history!

It might not happen again but Neil could rejuvenate us and get us back in the big time and if he does this with a cast of Youth team players that could be as special.

Thanks Joanna, Thanks Sam and all those legends of the Reebok.
If you want another wallow in nostalgia of those years may I recommend a really great, well written book - "Who put the ball in the Munich net" by Chris Flanagan, a journo who went to every one of our European games - just a few more than I!!

West Ham fans never stop being amusing do they. Listen to talk radio far too much but it seems every 5 minutes they find a clown who wants to get rid of Big Sam, classic today, I think from Graham Gooch. "Think we've done just enough to stay up" Yeah, also think Celtic might finish top 4 this season. Stick to cricket please.
One said Sam gets it tactically wrong whenever he plays the best teams but admitted they probably were the better team against Chelsea.
And the others want him gone because he doesn't play the ball on the ground. They'll take anyone at the moment...well anyone except Curbishly, Roeder, Pardew, Zola, etc who all failed to get them anywhere near where Sam has gotten them. I would love to see the ad they take out when Sam goes. "Wanted: World class manager, who plays the West Ham brand, will never play direct football and will get us where we rightfully belong as the best team in England if not the world. Budget £8M a season. Apply within."

Just a bunch of saddo's really who would love to believe they're a big club but sadly will never be. Able to accept they're not. Always overshadowed by the Arsenal's, Tottenham's and Chelsea's they will never be happy whoever manages them. They don't deserve BSA frankly and will be back to struggling again once he's gone.
