I'm not sure if it has been mentioned already on here but I believe the game against West Ham was the biggest attendance we have played in front of since September 2001, when we lost 4-0 at Manchester United with 67,551 attending the game.
I also believe Saturdays game was the 9th most attended game ever in our history & the 4th highest this century.

This was put on you tube today. Never saw the highlights due to being at the game. Should have won by more then two imo but either way it was a great night.
Also great to see Márton Fülöp in an interview after the game. Underrated keeper who was taken way too soon.
i just don’t want this feeling to go away. Just come across this video. It’s not had many views but it certainly struck a chord with me, Felt Sir Bobby throughout.
