West Ham Gets a Three-Pointer

The mighty Hammers got out of the bottom place this past weekend with a stunning victory over Tottenham Hotspur. West Ham was able to use the head of Frederic Piquonne in the 29th minute to go ahead, and they held on after.

This was Avram Grant's first win in the English Premier League for the Irons. Signifying a shift in the momentum of the Hammers play possibly, this win could turn the season round for the eastern Londoners.

Robert Green was the man of the match, making brilliant saves and not letting the Spurs optimize their chances in the match. Also it was Green's first clean sheet in any matches since before his blunder in the World Cup. After the game Green made a very emotional gesture to the press-box, possibly taken as an "up yours" to the critics which have surrounded him for most of the season.

West Ham's next match will be at home against Fulham on Saturday the second of October.

COME ON YOU IRONS!!!
