Di Canio’s double bluff against Barthez? Hurst’s six against Sunderland? Victory at the Emirates? Sealey’s brace at Wembley? Bobby Moore in goal against Stoke? Tevez’s winner at Old Trafford? Antonio’s winner at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium? Or perhaps the 0-3 FA Cup humiliation at Mansfield?There are thousands of West Ham games over the past century to choose from, including a developing number at a much publicised change of home venue in 2016. When narrowing this great volume of games down to just 125, some choices are obvious, some are not. These 125 matches dig deep into the Hammers’ footballing archive, and will tease out opinion and debate amongst all true Hammers’ aficionados.
Echoes of drama and heartbreak, ecstasy and despair, celebration and degradation, all are assembled for the first time in a compendium of 125 Beautiful Games you will never forget.
