I am a Watford fan and my son's a Palace fan. After all his jesting up until this game I told him that I'm not taking him to Selhurst Park next season if we go down. After those first 45 mins, he's now very nervous!

Watford defender Adrian Mariappa is warming up on the pitch with no bib etc on. I wonder if he's coming on.

Fred Crint: It’s odd, isn’t it. Not long before the enforced break Watford trounced Liverpool and I thought that they were well on the road to recovery. What’s happened?

Tottenham Hotspur academy coach on BBC Radio LondonThat is the best 45 minutes I have seen West Ham play at the London Stadium. They have been brilliant at both ends of the pitch.

Everton have been on summer holidays for a few weeks now. Bournemouth must be looking forward to the trip to Goodison-on-Sea.

The half-time whistle goes and West Ham are 45 minutes away from virtual safety. Watford were woeful.

Watford's best chance maybe. Troy Deeney crosses and Craig Dawson heads it over the bar from six yards out.

No. Will Hughes' ball is headed into touch.

Watford have a free-kick as we enter injury time. Can they create something?

Really grateful to West Ham for aiding our survival cause. If it doesn't work out though at least we won't need to "welcome" those lovely Leeds fans to Dean Court next season. Andy

I rarely watch Watford without thinking 'who's this guy?' at least once in a game. They must have about 100 players. Not many seem particularly good...

Tyrone: I mean as a spurs fan west ham is a game I really enjoy watching so for me them staying is almost as good as the possibility of millwall in the premier league.
Chris Painter: I'm calling it. One win and a decent lost keeps Bournemouth in the Premiership. Two decent fixtures to get them from. Watford aren't getting any more points defending like this...

Will Hughes shoots well over the bar from long range for Watford. Nigel Pearson shakes his head at what he is seeing.

West Ham have scored with all three of their shots on target. There could be a hologram of Ben Foster in goal for all we know.

This isn't looking good for Watford, I've got to say.
