Paul Ince has never been forgiven by the West Ham faithful after wearing a Man Utd shirt whilst still being a Hammers player, today we did not care about Ince and his ill forgotten tendencies but cared more for what Alan Curbishley had to deliver.

West Ham v Blackburn
Today was a day to be proud of wearing the shirt of Claret and Blue, West Ham starting off with an early lead by Calum Davenport scoring in the 12 minute, and then Santa Cruz hobbling after a misplaced tackle in the 18th minute, all of a sudden Blackburn look on edge and struggled to keep up with the pace of Parker and Noble in midfield.

In the 20th Minute a pass from my player of the day Julian Faubert to Noble catches Ashton by surprise and also Samba who left back kicks the ball against Ashton’s inside leg to score, but the goal is classed as an OG much to the disappointment of Deano.

22 minutes gone and West Ham make the sad mistake of being slack in defence, instead of doing what Rio used to do and kick the ball as far as Stanstead Airport Davenport tries to kick the ball back into play, as a result Jason Roberts scores a fine goal sliding past the right side of Robert Green to make a well deserved score of 2-1.

Much of the game went from side to side on a very even keel with West Ham looking the least to score another goal, but when Bellamy arrived with an excellent exchange of players by Curbs you actually knew there would be more goals, and more goals there was, Bellamy in extra time and then Cole putting the icing on the cake to finish West Ham off into 3rd place in the League, Well that was until Arsenal played later.

It was good to see BG and his wife at the game today showing some loyalty and support.

A fantastic result for West Ham, and hats off to Curbs for producing what he promised with a fairly fit squad.

Hence.. do we really need Stephen Appiah?
