West Ham co chairman David Gold admitted exclusively to ClaretandHugh this morning: “I lost it when I walked out into the stadium last night.

“Beyond personal issues such as the birth of children and the like, walking into that cauldron of sound and hearing our amazing fans singing ‘Bubbles’ was the most emotional moment of my life. I lost it.

“We came from the dining area onto the concourse and I lost it. I can’t describe my feelings. I though I was a tough old nut but I became a great big softy. It was stunning and unforgettable.”

Gold believes the club has “nailed it” and the match result showd that the players too have made an immediate adjustment to a stadium which could hardly be any different to the Boleyn.

Gold said:: “Everything is larger than life. It’s like a llife event awaits us all on every match day. It can only be likened, as you approach the stadium, to walking down Wembley Way.

“It has been worth all the struggle and the jumping through hoops and over hurdles. We have arrived at an extraordinary level and I feel immensely proud.”
