Hammers go into today's early kick off against Newcastle knowing that nothing less than three points will do, the Irons have endured a really miserable spell since the last International break, but remarkably still find themselves there or thereabouts for a Champions League place, hence the need for an absolute minimum of max points!

Very strange that the club sent out text messages yesterday stating that the exclusive 'window' for season ticket holders to buy tickets for Hammers Europa League fixture would end at 11am on feb 18th, however when we went to buy tickets last night, a good 16 hours before the 'deadline' we found that one of our season ticket seats had ALREADY been sold!
