A long long time ago, in what was a different universe, a small minority of people had the absolute gall and temerity to actualy believe David Moyes could miraculously turn his metaphoric loaves and fishes team into fayre capable of providing footballing sustinance for thousands and thousands, and you know what? He is doing just that!

Last season West Ham performed beyond expectation by finishing sixth in the Barclays Premier League, missing out on Champions League qualification by just ONE win. That sixth place earned Hammers a group stage qualification for the UEFA Europa League, a poisoned chalice for many 'smaller' clubs due to the play on Sunday and then on Thursday nature of the competition.
