11 years on from the club's last final, "West Ham United Vs Fulham" is the complete account of another famous day in Hammers' history, the 1975 FA Cup Final.

Remarkably the 1975 FA Cup was only the second time in the great competition's history that two London sides had contested the final. West Ham United and Fulham were perhaps two unlikely contenders for the trophy, but not as unlikely as the hero of the day, a man who had started the season at lowly Rochdale.

It was a strange sight seeing West Ham legend Bobby Moore line up against the men in claret and blue for his new club Fulham. Moore had after all, been such an integral part of the great Hammers sides of the 1960s. The game was a close affair and Fulham made life hard for John Lyall's troops. But with Billy Bonds ever-reliable at the back and Trevor Brooking becoming more and more influential in the opponent's half, it was West Ham that broke the deadlock thanks to the relatively unknown Alan Taylor, a centre forward who had joined West Ham from Rochdale. Four minutes later, Taylor netted again from close range, giving his team an unassailable 2-0 lead. There was no way back for Fulham.

You can watch the whole game again on this special souvenir DVD, on the day that Billy Bonds lifted the FA Cup for West Ham United back in 1975.
