What a day, any West Ham lucky enough to get a ticket in either end witnessed something we have not done all season - win in the last 5 minutes, it does feel good to do it to someone else as we know all to well what it's like to have it done to us.
The game itself was as the cliche says a game of two halfs, first half we possibly edged it, Carlton taking his goal superbly and showing what a good player he can be. On Carlton cole it came out in Sunday that he lost half his wages in dropping down to the championship, not many modern day footballers would have, he fully deserves his due bonus and an offer to extend his year contract.
Second half we did not deserve it, Blackpool had the far better chance and had their players kept their nerve should be a premiership team now. It was ironic that judas' son scored another year in the championship he will be in the premier league for sure, lets hope big Sam does not do something stupid and try to sign him.
It was a shame to see so many empty seats in their end, I still don't understand why they where not returned I the fa and re allocated to us, even if around 3,000 west ham say in their end we could have sold a lot more tickets.
Ricardo Vaz Tae - scores when he wants, he actually played terrible could not stand up for 85 minutes then pops up like all good forwards do and bags the 90 million pound goal, bargain at £ 500,00.00 - interesting to see him in the premiership next year.
The hard work starts now, we need to strengthen in so many areas, firstly keeping Green in goal, what a player he has been for us over the years.
49 games and we are back where we. Belong, let's hope it's not a short stay back and we know move onwards and upwards
Come on you irons

Wembley Tickets Arrive
I received the golden tickets in the post this week.
I will be amongst the allocated 35,000 urging the irons on in the play off final. Let's hope it'll be a day to remember for all the right reasons and that we get back to where we belong.
I must firstly point out the farce of the allocated tickets. How have the FA managed to give us and Blackpool the same allocation, there is a reason why there are reports that Blackpool still have 5,000 tickets unsold one day before the game. Why have they not sent more tickets back that The Hammers could have had instead of sending back 500 which went on general sale on Wednesday and sold out in the first half hour.
West ham could have reported to have sold a further 20,000 tickets for the final, which goes to show just how big our club or how vast our fan base is. Don't get me wrong, we wouldn't attract that many fans to every game especially playing teams like Watford or Bristol city, but if we do make it back to the premiership and spend a good amount on new players to sustain our position who is to say we couldn't start to attract those numbers every other week.
I know several friends that managed to get tickets in the Blackpool end, which seems to be quite common these days. It'll certainly be strange to hear bubbles coming out of the blackpool end.
Anyway, here's to a great day out at Wembley, back again at last after all these years. Will Carlton Cole repeat a Trevor brooking header? Let the Party start.
