Hammers Fans ‘Incredible’

Alan Pardew has told the fans they are crucial to West Hams season and says we’ve been ‘absolutely incredible’.

‘We need the fans with us because they are such an important part of the way we play. They were a bit expectant before the game and at this level you can’t afford to be like that. They have such a key role to play, especially at home where their support this season has been absolutely incredible. Towards the end of the game they could see that we were really digging in, and they responded. We needed that, and it’s that kind of backing that the team need.’
