West Ham/Football store in Central London?

[etcheverrito]

Hammers,
My boss is off to London next week, he's offered to get me some hammers paraphanelia. Can anyone give us some tips, locations and hopefully with address of stores that carry west ham stuff? I'm not sure he wants to go near Upton, he's an Arsenal fan so...you know the welcome he'll get.

Thanks,
Etch

There's a big football store on Caranby St, in central London. IIRC, it's even featured in Bend it Like Beckham.

I was, however, called a sheep shagger there once.

The stadium store

and one in Lakeside

Unit 71
Lakeside, Thurrock

Great store at Picadilly Circus....

........Lillywhites...............

They have it all soccer, rugby kits.

And most tourists end up in the neighborhood for the theatre.

Are you sure he's an Arse fan? It appears he has a heart.

Yep...he is an Arse fan, talks endlessly about Bergkamp and Viera. He has been seduced by evil as i was on the verge a long time ago...then found my true love, West Ham.
Please let those suggestion flow in...I want to give him as many options as possible.

Thanks,

JJB sports store is on Regent street in central London. Soccer Scene is around the corner on Carnaby, and the aforementioned Lilywhites.

A great book store is Sports Pages.

I think all of these have websites, so check them out, get the addys and then mapquest them out for him.

He may want to check out the Upton Park Museum and see how important WHU was for the 1966 WC win.
