Your Favourite Memories Against...West Ham

Been quite a few good memories against the Hammers such as twatting them 5-0 in 98, Danny Agger's thunderbolt in 06, Kuyt's belter just after half time in 07 and of course the FA Cup final in 06. (that's my lifetime, obviously going further back there's the League Cup win in 81. 6-0 in 84 and the continued unbeaten run at Anfield against them stretching as far back as 1963.)

Has to be the F.A. CUP FINAL and Gerrard's 2nd goal. Always brings a smile when I think of that goal.

I remember Clyde Best's first appearance at Anfield in 1969, his tackle with Tommy Smith echoed around the ground and his appearance around the country. It was also the first m.o.t.d. ever broadcast in colour , not that it would have mattered to me as it was 1972 or 1973 before we got a colour TV. It was the first game when I appeared on T.V. stood shivering near the corner flag in the Kop as we took a corner and scored..... fame at last.

Yeah, Allardyce may look like a bent copper, but fair play to him for stumping up for the giant glass statue that is Andy Carroll. It was a relief wasn't it?

Downing is an ok bit of business for them at £6m though - we just paid way over the odds, but he is not that bad.
Wonder what his odds are to score against us tomorrow?
Fairly remote probably haha.
No, I couldn't 

Still can't believe all in (including loan fee) we will get near to £20m! Ridiculous money for a man with his record. Felt sorry for him while he was here but is further proving he was no where near the required standard!

Would be just our luck for Downing to work out where the net is at Anfield! Anyone who gets beaten one on one by downing should be threatened with death!

His odds of scoring must be slim, but his odds of beating somebody one on one? Its gonna be " we need a bigger calculator" down at William Hills!

Has to be the FA Cup final 06. Incredible game and at a time when we were in the hunt for top honours on a regular basis.
