Wouldn't it b great if all those who can't get a ticket for our away game on St Stephens day turned up wearing colours at Westfield .

50,000 west ham shoppers forming an orderly queue outside Greggs and Starbucks on the ground floor , Tap East , and the upstairs area by the entrance to John Lewis , and the middle entrance near the food area .

4 doors , 12,000 queuing outside each of them for a couple of hours .

#Don'tquiteOccupyWestfield

I'd take part myself but I will be watching West Ham , it's a family tradition .

Great idea about Westfield Pinky. :D

How many of your family go with you on Boxing Day? Presumably they are ST's

We are a parody of a football club

Restricted to when we can play 'home' football game due to athletics and a shopping centre

It's my birthday on Boxing Day, and I try and go to a match with my old man every Boxing Day, it's the best thing about my birthday... always a West Ham game!

Getting away tickets and away travel is hard on Boxing Day, so a home game is always welcome.

2 season's ago we were away to Villa (I think), we couldn't make that so went and watched Dagenham vs Cambridge... it just wasn't the same.

Last season we were away again, F'ing Swansea! Dagenham were away as well and so were the O's.... no game last season on my birthday.... looking like that is now going to be the norm, thanks to the board Headbanger

Just thought it was a good name for a horse.

Back on track, does Sullivan own horses? I know he has covered his house in bronzes, Stubbs' and alabaster monstrosities, but does he race em?

Don't be daft! I've seen West Ham 'not being at the races' on too many Boxing Days!

Not me, even though I live a 9 iron from Kempton Park's gate 6 car park entrance. I've never been, it does nothing for me.
