Just a quick note to all you West Ham fans that spoilt my day.
The first trip to Wembley for my son (age 6) and 200 idiots from West ham sat 10 rows behind chanting their vile garbage at us. Absolutely shameful, the worst of it all was there were kids from West Ham with these idiots. Totally ruined the day which was meant to be so special.
On an other note I thought we out played you and I have never seen so many long balls hit down the pitch. You set up is like a pub team.

I can only apologise for the mindless idiots round and about you that spoiled a great day out for you and your son. No place for that at a football match. However, this 'pub team' is actually premier league!!
Thank you for your note.
I have logged complaints with West Ham, The FA and Wembley, this should not be happening. Apparently there were other pockets of West Ham fans in the Blackpool end and there was quite a lot of trouble.
You will not be in the premier league for long if you continue to play that way.
You need big changes if you are to stay up.
You had the biggest budget in the league and your football is dire.
Yesterday I watched two matches and the two teams that actually played football lost. I would class your style and team set up as a pub team.

Well westham fans in the blackpool end is down to ur fans and we all no that will be banter verbal abuse not a place for a 6yr old.and u got beat by pub team so u don't deserve to be in the prem
This pub team put ten goals past u this season
Why is West Ham fans in the Blackpool end anything to do with Blackpool fans?
I think you need to engage your brain before typing.
They were in there for one reason, to cause trouble. I cant beleive you are trying to defend them.
I read in the news papper today you are going to be sponsored by the Dog and Duck next year is that true?
We are a small club with a small budget and we played you off the park.
As Oli said in his interview he and Sam are chefs who serve different menus.....Sam is Roadchef and Oli is Gordon Ramsey!

Blackpool had the same allocation has west ham so someone from blackpool as sold those tickets to west ham fans .most westham fans don't like the style of football we are playing but we needed to be back in the prem you have received appologies from fans whom wasnt there as i said there will always be an element that will cause trouble .so don't have a pop at me not engaging my brain.and what did u get for playing brill footie didly squat
I just hope they were all eventually arrested and banned for life.
I picked my tickets up at Wembley, the next kiosk was a west ham fan saying his ticket wouldn't work for the Blackpool end. He applied for ticket on line and got the tickets sent to an address outside London. He wasn't the sharpest tool in the box.
I wouldn’t have a problem sitting next to a West Ham fan if they respected the fact they were in the Blackpool end.
I totally agree every club have their idiots, I have never seen so many from one club at once.
It's easy to get tickets for any game you want more or less, there are touts at every game.
you are deluded if you think your football will change next season. Sam can only play one way and this will be your downfall, he is tactically inept. I go to a lot of prem games with my work and these 1980 tactics just will not work.
It's a good job the roof was open on the stadium yesterday.
I went home proud of my team, which as a football fan is all you can only ask for.
Firstly its not as easy as you may think to get tickets for the game as most of our allocation went to season ticket holders alone meaning they would not have sold the tickets as they are DIEHARD fans who wanted to go.....
Secondly the attendance for the day was 78000 ... west ham sold out all of their allocation and even all your that you sent back... all of the tickets that the touts and the west ham fans had in your end is because your small club could not manage to sell over 30000 tickets for a final.... we get more playing barnsley at home ffs....
Thirdly i don't know what the fans were singing so can't comment on that.....although i never heard much and i was sitting next to the blackpool fans opposite where we lifted the trophy....
Finally we played awful on the day and still won... maybe you would of if you could defend.... which you seem to be good at on here in regards for your idea of us being a pub team ..... regards
