West Ham Online

I remember was sitting in a pub on Canvey Island watching that game. Kanoute was making his debut, and that team was probably my favourite period of following West Ham.

Team that day was (although the setup is somewhat a guess): Substitutes

J Cole
N Ruddock
M Keller
P Wanchope
I Feuer

We were an up and down side, but for me it was a great period...talented players, a team setup to get mavericks and entertainers on the pitch, cult heroes, up and coming youth hopes, and money coming into the game but not having totally ruined it.

Halcyon days.

I have always considered Di Canio's 30 years volley screamer at Chelsea in September 2002 to be the better (or my favourite at least) goal of his. The volley against Wimbledon was majestic but I just love that screamer at Chelsea. Especially as it contributed to a memorably 2-3 away win there.

It's such a shame Roeder relegated that team that season. And that Brown and the tight-fisted board hired him to replace Redknapp. Classic West Ham.

Was a week after my dad had died suddenly and the goal raised the first smile in a week. Dad would have loved that goal. Great goal all around. Most clips just show Sinclair's cross and Di Canio's volley but Foes cross field ball was a peach as well. 26 years FMOB.

Stunning goal, no doubt. However if I had to choose only one goal over my 51 years of supporting this club to watch on a loop it would be Bowens vs Fiorentina closely followed by Lanzinis vs Spurs but Paolo would definitely be third

One of the few goals in my life where even watching it, I couldn't believe it went in first time, and it took me a moment to realise the ball was actually in the net.

The other notable one I remember where I felt like that was Ronaldinho's goal against Chelsea for Barcelona.

The one thing that stuck out for me was the buzz around the ground after all the cheering subsided as if to say did we actually see him do that. Never heard a buzz like that for any other goal since and quite confident I never will with the sanitised, robotic shit we watch nowadays.

Goosebump stuff.

I remember being there for that one and also a stunner against Derby.

He was the player that always had you on the edge of your seat with his genius and unpredictability.


 

To think that Roeder relegated us three years later with the bulk of that team. That relegation set us back years as a club.

that cross field ball from trevor, class. I loved that team

Had a great view of it from the West Upper 

I suspect that I'm not alone in saying that I will never, ever, tire of watching that goal.
