Match no. 16. First Football League game seen at Upton Park and the first game that I went to on my own. Arsenal''s Ian Ure was booed throughout after some robust challenges on Budgie Byrne. This was rather quaintly described in the next West Ham programme as some cries of disapproval for one opposing player.
