Zola calls for same again

Gianfranco Zola has spoken of the importance of the fans ahead of Saturday's visit of Hull City as West Ham United look to make it two wins from two.

The squad is on the up after the 2-0 success against Birmingham City last week and only limited tickets remain for this weekend. Hull are level on points with the Hammers, although three places lower in the standings, and a home win would push the club further away from the bottom three and towards mid-table.

In a message to fans, the manager said: "I am sure we will have the boost from the Birmingham match but we have to start all over again. Yet again, the crowd will be massive. With passion and belief from the fans, it will make a big difference.

"This partnership is what it is all about. We will try to do our part by playing good football and making you proud, you can do yours by getting behind us.

"We will never take your support for granted and appreciate the efforts you make. All together we can make it a good day."

The previous meeting between the clubs back on 21 November was a thrilling contest, ending in a 3-3 draw after a see-saw encounter. With this fixture being classed a Category B match, tickets start from just £35 for adults, £17.50 for over 65s and £17 for under-16s. Additional discounts are offered to young adult and junior Academy Members.
