We watch this in the Heritage Hotel at Torquay, accompanied by a bloke who grew up in Hornchurch now living in Spain who is buying properties in the area and his mate who is a Wrexham fan. Meanwhile disturbing news arrives on WhatsApp that Matt and Lisa are in Wales and requesting a half and half scarf, "for a Welsh friend".
Initially the Hammers have most of the game with Bowen having a shot tipped on to the bar by Patterson and Piroe shooting over from a good position. The opener arrives when Solomon finds Morato, getting a game in place of Scarles, whose low cross is expertly steered home by Jarrod Bowen.
Mavropanos makes a poor clearance but then retrieves the situation by clearing off the line from Dobson. That's about Wrexham's only chance. Soon after Castellanos feeds Piroe who fires into the top of the net.
The second half begins with a corner headed home by the Greek Bloke. That's Dinos's third of the season. What sort of thing is happening here?
Walker-Peters has come on for the injured Veltman and makes a surging break from this own area. A quick one-two sees him set up Taty for the fourth. Blimey, it's time for more Camden Pale Ale. It's amazing what confidence does, we're playing with verve and freedom.
Manor Solomon who has had a great game plays a fine ball over the top for sub Mo Kante to score an excellent fifth. We might have found a new lucky pub. we look on in disbelief as Solomon is set up by Walker-Peters to fire in the sixth, in off the post.
The only Hollywood display has been from West Ham. For the first time in 131 years we've had six different scorers in one game. This is as they say a statement result. Come on you Irons!
