City and West Ham fans

Goes back a few years now , I was at the famous Upton Park game when we went down , it could of gone either way but we got applauded at the tube station ,scene from rourks drift at the end.
If the guvnors hadn’t got lifted at Euston if could have been a whole different outcome.
Great set of fans the hammers .

Certainly a mutual hatred of United helps the relationship between the two sets of fans! Used to love going West Ham at Upton Park. That Boleyn pub was something else !

Me too -them lining Green Street singing “Loyal Supporters” and applauding us going back to Tube -utterly surreal in 1987 -and the amity grew from there.
 
15:20 in.

Final whistle goes. Fans invade the pitch. West Ham fans applauding and singing along with City fans on the pitch. Nice comments from the West Ham Youtuber about City.

 
Many congratulations to all blues on winning the league for an incredible 4th time in a row.

We have a kinship stretching back for quite sometime..
its bizarre really ..mancs and cockneys ..who'd have thought it .eh?

I thought the mutual respect shown yesterday was quality...restored my faith in old school values.

The bitterness and jealousy from the usual suspects is off the scale though...wow!!

All the best lads and lasses

Didn't skip it to that time as I was intrigued as to what he'd say about the atmosphere at the beginning of the game. As he pointed out it was 'electric' at the start and after Foden's first. Got goosebumps at the time and again just thinking about it. Obviously wasn't near those levels all game, especially after they'd pulled one back and everybody got a bit anxious as we should have already been out of sight. For a period of the game it was one of the best atmospheres I've experienced though. As usual there wasn't an atmosphere according to the armchair twats on facebollocks. Clearly weren't watching the game and jerking off to Bingo's farewell at Klanfield instead.

Don't worry mate, you can never win an argument with idiots.

Saw something yesterday circulating from bitter reds comparing Fergie's 3 leagues on the trot with our four. Claiming Fergie only spent 153 million whereas we'd spent 471 for our 4 as though they were like for like comparisons. 2 pints of milk was probably about 50p back then. They also neglect to mention in our four seasons they'd also outspent us. Absolute morons.
 
They certainly know their stuff on life and Football and are not easily hood winked.
I only ever went to Upton Park once and it was surreal how at home felt, like MR with Cockley accents, mixture of the grittiness with warmth and undrlying humour is my best effort at describing it.
We seem to have similar characteristics hard to say if its similar social / industrial backgrounds / east end etc or just the fortunes of our teams down the years but there is a real similarity.

Had to clap your fans on Sunday when they were singing bubbles near the end.
