Three Generations of Hammers in the Boleyn
|
One of the greatest footballing memories I think I'll ever have! Took my (6yr old) son to his first game on Saturday along with my old man. Wasn't exactly the greatest spectacle, but the look of amazement on his face as we walked into the stadium and to our seats will live with me forever. Seeing my old man bursting with pride was something else as well!

Nice to see. Took me little one a few years back when we got beat by Burnley. Poor fella balled his eyes out, had only just turned 4. He's been back a few times and there he was proudly belting out bubbles and waving his scarf about on Saturday. Made his day all the more when he got Songs autograph. He loves it. Future generations.
Irons!!

My boys are only 2 and 6 months so will never get to UP but on the plus side they won't have any memories of BFS.

Took my 4 year old for his first taste on Saturday, wanted to make sure he got a visit in before it all changes.
He didn't watch much of the football and cant really blame him, was dog shit!
But along with my 7 year old, we had a good day, despite getting drenched on the walk and wait to get to Plaistow tube!

Mad puppy loved it (for an hour till he got bored). Think he loved being able to shout stuff at the top of your voice without being told off for it.

Stopped going under Allardyce as yes, it would have been child cruelty. We were there Saturday and my Son, aged 7, loved it and as Martin Peters was sat near us and he had a photo with him it made his day. He can't wait for the draw tonight.

Under Allardyce, parents were reported to the NSPCC for such acts of cruelty of taking their kids to West Ham!
Here's to the future generation of supporters and nothing like a win to encourage them to go back :o)
