Proud East Londoner this morning. We defended like lions and took our chances ruthlessly.

West Ham have won five of their past six fixtures across all competitions while Tottenham suffered their fourth defeat in five and dropped points from a winning position for a fifth consecutive game.
West Ham remain ninth in the table, but nudged their points tally to three behind Spurs, who are fifth, and two shy of seventh-placed Newcastle following Thursday night's results.
More back pages to come, but let's have a quick look at how last night's results affected the Premier League table, starting with the top half...
Friday's back pages
The Daily Express
The Express flag the fact that Everton twice benefitted from late errors by the normally dependable Kieran Trippier as Sean Dyche's side scored late goals to beat Newcastle and move out of the relegation zone.
Friday's back pages
West Ham goal hero James Ward-Prowse is the dominant image in the Telegraph's main sport page as the England midfielder celebrates his match-winning tap-in at Tottenham.
Defeat made it just one point in five games for Ange Postecoglou's Spurs side.
Right, to the papers. Tottenham supporters look away now...
Peter Schmeichel
Former Manchester United goalkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Live
My footballing hero is Maradona. I have never seen a player be able to do what he did on pitches. No-one would even do a training session on them today. What he did at Napoli lifting a cup from nowhere and winning the Italian championship and of course the World Cup in 1986. He is the best player I’ve ever seen play.
Our first pundit of the morning to pick their footballing hero is Denmark and Manchester United legend Peter Schmeichel. It's an obvious selection, but potentially not for a goalkeeper. Peter Shilton may not approve...

BBC Radio 5 Live
Tune into BBC Radio 5 Live this morning for a bit of nostalgia as the station's pundits share their footballing heroes. We will feature their selections on this page throughout the morning and would also love to know yours.
Just get in touch using the contact details above and remember to leave your name.
We will hear from the remaining three managers from last night's games after a look at this morning's papers.
But first, we have a little task for you guys...

INEOS duo Sir Dave Brailsford and Jean-Claude Blanc visited Old Trafford yesterday on a fact-finding mission ahead of Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s part-purchase of Manchester United.
Ratcliffe’s purchase of 25% of the club is still to be completed and is not going to be done next week.
However, it is understood there are no significant issues.
Brailsford and Blanc are expected to play major roles in a new executive structure at United once the deal is concluded.
It is understood the same pair had a similar visit to Old Trafford in March.
Interim chief executive Patrick Stewart met Brailsford and Blanc, along with football director John Murtough.
Everton 3-0 Newcastle
On moving out of the bottom three, Everton manager Sean Dyche told BBC Radio 5 Live: "We moved into it. Without those 10 points [deducted], we'd be in an amazing position - 20 points would be amazing relative to the last two seasons here.
"We will see what the appeal brings. The mentality is key for me, we took a knock but there have been a lot of knocks here over the last couple of years.
"But the team mentality is growing. I can't emphasise it enough, the commitment to each other and the connection is a powerful thing because I know we've got quality."
Everton 3-0 Newcastle
Everton scored three times in the final 11 minutes of a hectic encounter to beat Newcastle and move out of the Premier League's relegation zone.
The Toffees were sent tumbling into the bottom three by their 10-point deduction for breaking the top flight's financial rules, but moved back into safety thanks to late goals from Dwight McNeil, Abdoulaye Doucoure and summer signing Beto.
The hosts punished a pair of mistakes from Kieran Trippier, the first coming as McNeil pounced on a poor touch, drove forward and thumped a deflected effort into the net, before Doucoure coolly slotted home seven minutes later.
Beto then ran clear during 10 minutes of stoppage time and slid home his first league goal to make sure of the points as the home supporters wildly celebrated a deserved victory.
Tottenham 1-2 West Ham
Defeat for Tottenham continued an alarming slump in form that has seen Ange Postecoglou's side fall from the Premier League summit at the end of October to fifth - nine points behind leaders Arsenal.
They have now lost four of their last five games after going unbeaten in the league for the first three months of the campaign.
Spurs captain Son Heung-min described the result at home to West Ham as "unacceptable" and said his fellow players "need to take responsibility" after they dropped points from a winning position for a fifth consecutive game.
"[Whether we] deserved better or not means nothing - we lost the game. It is unacceptable," Son told Amazon Prime.
"As players [we] should take responsibility. Attacking players should [especially] feel responsibility because we had chances to kill the game."
Tottenham 1-2 West Ham
West Ham United manager David Moyes called his side's comeback at Tottenham "one of the biggest wins I've had in football" as they continued their fine run of form.
Cristian Romero's early header had given Spurs a deserved opener in the 11th minute as the defender nodded in Pedro Porro's corner with a looping effort.
But Jarrod Bowen hit back for the Hammers, latching on to a loose ball in the penalty area and firing in a 52nd-minute equaliser.
And, after a poor backpass from Spurs defender Destiny Udogie, James Ward-Prowse side-footed an effort against the post before knocking in the rebound to complete West Ham's turnaround in the 74th minute.
"I think it is a huge win to come here and win against this side," Moyes told BBC Radio 5 Live.
"I'm pleased with how we were resilient and diligent in our work, organised, defensively structured and we were always a threat as well."
What a week that was...ready for some more?
The football just keeps on coming with a flurry of Premier League news conferences planned today to preview this weekend's fixtures.
We will kick off with a quick recap of last night's main talking points then have a look at this morning's national newspapers.
Those news conferences then start with Arsenal's Mikel Arteta from around 09:00 GMT.
West Ham and Everton close a busy midweek fixture programme in the Premier League with big wins against high-flyers Tottenham and Newcastle.
James Ward-Prowse scored the winner as the Hammers came from behind to win 2-1 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium...
...while Everton moved out of the relegation zone with a late flurry of goals in a 3-0 win at home to the in-form Magpies.
