Those West Ham similarities in full

Manager who got them relegated gets sacked when it is clear he won't get them promoted.

Consistent adherence to passing football and the purchase of players who can pass the ball.

Current Manager not only keeps them in the Premiership but has them challenging for Europe.

Unbreakable humility of manager in face of criticism from supporters and no sense of gloating whatsoever when results go his way.

Dean Ashton plays for them.
