I watched him play on many occasions back in the day before moving to Scotland. Brilliant team of locals Harry Redknapp, Frank Lampard Senior, Bobby Moore etc
Upton Park was a great ground for watching football . Billy Bonds was a blood and guts sort of player. One of the best.

"Upton Park was a great ground for watching football."
In my teens, during the Middle Ages, I got on the London tube line to go see The Hammers and got off at Upton Park - the only passenger to do so !!!
The appropriate one for the Boleyn Ground was two stops further up !!!
DOH !!!
