Andy Carroll immediately causes havoc, winning a free-kick 35 yards out. The fans sing Dimitri Payet's name but it's surely too far out for him - crossed in instead and Andy Carroll wins a header before Manuel Lanzini volleys over!

Under way. For the last time.

A reminder of what this means on the pitch - a win for Manchester United would put them into fourth place with one game left.

A win for West Ham would mean that a place in Europe remains on the cards.

Some of the West Ham players appear to have their children as mascots as the bubble machine fires up and the crowd goes berzerk.

An a capella version of 'Blowing Bubbles' of astounding volume and we are on. 

The last ever game at Upton Park. About to get going now.

The players are in the tunnel now, jammed together in the tunnel. Time to get this show belatedly on the road. 

The entire stadium is bedecked in claret and blue stripes now as the fans all wear t-shirts which were left on their seats.

The big screen projects the names of all West Ham players who had played at this stadium but are no longer with us.

Inside Upton park the atmosphere is tremendous, it has to be said, as a brass band play 'Abide with me' on the pitch.

The [delayed] kick-off is now 15 minutes away.

Sky Sports pundit Graeme Souness:

"The village idiots who have done that have to realise these pictures will be beamed across the world. What does that say about our game? Village idiots."

5 live commentator at Upton Park

"It is a terrible, terrible shame. The bottles were thrown just across the road from the iconic statue of World Cup winners Hurst, Moore and Peters.

"So many wonderful West Ham fans are here and they have been denied a perfect evening."

A West Ham season ticket holder on 5 live says he is upset by the scenes outside Upton Park, and that the events 'have tarnished our night.'

Statement from the Metropolitan Police: "We are aware that a number of items were thrown at the Manchester United coach.

"One police officer and a member of the public sustained minor injuries. No arrests have been made."

West Ham's new home come August will be the London 2012 Olympic Stadium - where the Hammers have reportedly shifted more than 50,000 season tickets.

Win tonight and a European place is very much still up for grabs.

If you are just dialling in for an update after 20-odd minutes, a reminder that tonight's game has been put back to a 20:30 BST kick-off.

The Manchester United coach was delayed getting into the stadium by fans, with some fans throwing bottles and other missiles at the coach.

I went to a game at the Vetch in its last season in action - there were signs up in the away end which said: "We apologise for our awful facilities."

And they weren't wrong.

A great atmosphere though - even if the Swans were in League Two when it shut its doors in 2005. Swansea have moved on up since at the Liberty Stadium.

It appears that the Vetch is currently an allotment, external and there are plans for houses - though the old centre circle is being retained as a wild orchard.

Great stuff. 

Sir Trevor Brooking on BBC Radio 5 live: "It is going to be tough for Manchester United but if they get the FA Cup and fourth place it will be a hard one to defend if they get rid of Louis van Gaal."

The Manchester United squad have just arrived onto the pitch for their pre-match warm-up. Ten minutes after the original kick-off time.

"I am about 100 yards from the main entrance to the ground, what makes this evening unusual is the sheer number of supporters outside the ground.. The key thing is many want to be here to be part of the atmosphere.

"Right outside the ground was the Manchester United coach and it was stuck, it wasn't going anywhere. There were about 10 police vans in front of it and it was surrounded by a sea of fans. I didn't see any bottles being thrown then, I watched for a couple of minutes, but I have seen videos on social media of a couple of bottles being thrown.

"Most fans standing around were gesturing and singing, to say the bus was being attacked I think is something of an exaggeration."
