Two hard earned draws followed that left us desperately close to the drop zone and it was for Emerson to score against his former club, assisted by Bowen that earned us a point at home to Chelsea. Another manager under pressure, Graham Potter fielded a new look £200m front line, but could not manage a win continuing a bad run of results for Chelsea.

Hammers Celebrate Historical Europa Conference League Trophy With Victory Parade
For those who were able, made their way to Upton Park for a victory parade we thought would never happen in most of our life times to continue the party. The perfect start to the finale of celebrations as the open top bus filed passed with the players who have fought with passion and shear physical hard work throughout the season to bring home a major trophy for adoring fans.
West Ham United 2 AZ Alkmaar 1 Europa Conference League Semi Final First Leg
We must also recognise Antonio’s late form this season and the constant threat that Bowen offers up front and add to this the ever present Rice, who even on an average day offers the team so much with his tackling, confidence in defensive duties as well as his passing and forward runs, you wonder why we have struggled all season!
Back to the Future Part 4
“We were massive,” Moyes said. “We played with great passion. It’s not just Yarmolenko. It was the team. His message and his name will be heard all round Europe. But the story is not just about Yarmolenko. The story was about West Ham.”
Back to the Future Part 1
Our first game under Moyes for his second return to the club saw a dominant Hammers put four past a struggling Bournemouth at the London Stadium. It could not have been a better script for Moyes with captain Noble scoring 2 – including a penalty and both Sebastian Haller and Felipe Anderson helping to end a run of four consecutive defeats which lifted the Hammers out of the relegation zone.
West Ham Utd 1 Crystal Palace 2 6th November 2022
Time had run out on the team and the week ahead seemed to be affected by this poor result. When Morley said he fancied a 3-0 win for the Hammers in his pre match interview, some of us fans said we would be lucky to get a draw. Palace are playing some tidy attacking football and we are looking soft at the back on the counter.
West Ham Utd 3 FCSB 1 Europa Conference League 8th September 2022
An excellent Bowen penalty after Cornet was fouled, no VAR to chalk that one off, and a wonderful goal from Emerson to put us in control. The crowd sensed there were more goals in this game and it came from the excellent Antonio on 90th minute to send the crowd roaring and singing. Antonio entertains as much as he frustrates but his impact along with Bowen and later Parqueta was the difference.
West Ham United 1 Burnley 1 17th April 2022
The party atmosphere continued from Thursdays incredible away win at Lyon to secure a historic Europa League semi final with Frankfurt and with the summer sun beating down on the London Stadium fans were hoping for more of the same against managerless Burnley, who are struggling for Premier League survival.
West Ham United 1 Lyon 1 Europa League Quarter Final 7th April 2022
It was a battling, although not the best, performance that keeps West Ham in with a chance after Cresswell was controversially sent off at the end of a first half that saw the Hammers gradually taking control against a rather niggly Lyon side happy to play for every foul and tactic to disrupt the flow of the game.
West Ham United 2 Leeds United 3 16th January 2022
But could the Hammers at least rescue a draw? With growing purpose the Hammers began to push further forward with Vlasic and Fornals making way for Masuaku and Yarmolenko to see out the final 20mins of what was becoming a more frantic encounter. So, it was a final chance falling to in form Bowen who could only chest over a cross that should have been headed firmly into the Leeds net to salvage something from a match that had 2 goals ruled out for offside, one for each team, that raised Leeds to 15th place, whilst the Hammers hang precariously in 4th anxiously watching results of those teams around us.
