West Ham United: Adrian, Byram, Burke, Collins, Cresswell, Rice, Noble ( c ), Cullen, Holland, Makasi, Martinez Subs: Hart (GK), Zabaleta, Masuaku, Fonte, Ogbonna, Obiang, Snodgrass, Arnautovic, Fernandes, Ayew
Hammers 1-0 down after 11 minutes, Mark Noble off injured on the half hour! Replaced by Pedro Obiang, James Collins went of with a calf strain right at the death.

Those Hammers fans of a certain age will remember that before the internet and Sky the only news source for sports was the back page of newspapers, in those papers there were cartoons.

The arrival of Javier Fernandez has raised West Ham United's profile by a disproportionate amount, and so getting to actually see him live will be the preserve of those lucky enough to have season tickets or those who manage to get tickets via ticket exchange or are lucky enough to obtain one of the few tickets allocated via the members list.
