Brian Moore stand is for away supporters.

When I 'phoned Gillingham last week they said they had no tickets for away supporters and that I should contact West Ham, which I did. They said that they would only be selling tickets to away supporters if West Ham returned any.

does anyone know if i can contact the ticket office as i don't seem to have an e-mail address for them , also i'm going on saturday with 6 mates and there ain't nothing on website about paying on the day. The pub for away supporters is the livingstone arms on livingstone circus which will be rammed with west ham i think as it's not that big, so anyone fancying pre-match beer, we'll be in there.

Ticket office don't reply to emails anyway. If you can't go down there your best bet is to get on the phone to them at 9:00 tomorrow and just hang on till you get to the front of the queue.

I wouldnt advise phoning the ticket office tomorrow. The first 3 home games go on sale to members and the lines will be totally jammed.

hard-core is a comparative term, yes there are some nutters there, and believe me you wouldn't want to be the only Hammer in the middle of a thousand, chavvy scum from Twydall or Walderslade.

So is this going to become the official match thread ?

If so I'd just like to say I want to see Pards put on his boots and a West Ham shirt and turn out against his old mate Hessenthaler's side. :D

Failing that I'm looking forward to seeing the new signings so I hope they all get a run out.
