On this day - Three and easy for Hammers at Leicester


Taking a look back at a classic West Ham United moment on this day in history, in association with Basset & Gold..

West Ham United head to Leicester this evening - just as they did on this date in the calendar 20 years ago.

David Moyes would certainly take a repeat of the scoreline that day, when the Hammers ran out 3-1 winners.

Paulo Wanchope opened the scoring early on at Filbert Street, and although Emile Heskey equalised before the break, West Ham would not be denied.

Wanchope added a second to restore the advantage before Paolo Di Canio wrapped the points up on the hour mark.
