Firsts and Lasts

It was my first Premier League football match.

My first time in London Stadium.

George Earthy's first Premier League goal.

The last West Ham United home match of 23/24

David Moyes' last home match as manager of West Ham United

It was a great day out. I got a great seat and got to see West Ham play really well. It was disappointing for Luton Town. Luton's had an incredible season even though they are going to be relegated. They've been through some really tough situations and have always shown a tonne of class and grace through it all. I've got massive amounts of respect for their manager Rob Edwards. He is straight up class. I really do wish the best for him and the club.

On the other side is David Moyes. Another manager I've got lots of respect for. He's done so much for West Ham and it's a shame to see him go. I get why the club made the decision but it still a shame. Moyes has done some great things for the club. He's really brought West Ham along and elevated them in the Premier League. He pushed them to win their first trophy in 43 years. He will be missed.

It really was a wonderful day out and an amazing experience for a first Premier League match.
