West
Ham United Football Club are based in Upton Park, Newham, East London
and have played their home matches at the 35,647 capacity Boleyn Ground
stadium since 1904. The clubs formative roots stretch back to their
formation as a professional side in 1900, but existed for at least five
years prior to this under the name Thames Ironworks F.C. who themselves
were built upon the remains of Old Castle Swifts F.C. (a club formed in
1892).
This
was my first away match as a Spurs supporter. I travelled by train and
tube to Upton Park (District Line). Your 14-year-old correspondent
accompanied by a Hammers fan stood in the home North Bank. Now I was
very used to standing in large football crowds but this was the first
time that I had done so where everyone else was shouting for the other
team. I took an instant dislike to the majority of these people for
numerous reasons, most of which I can not recall. On reflection the real
issue was that they appeared to hate my team! By the same token I was
not about to include them on my Christmas card list.
A
tense closely fought encounter was settled by the only goal scored for
the Hammers by Keith Robson. However, a few months later I returned to
this venue for a League Cup 4th Round Replay. In a match interrupted by a
lengthy floodlight failure and prolonged by extra time, Spurs ran out
winners courtesy of goals from John Duncan and Willie Young.
