WEST HAM ­ IN MY DAY, the first book produced by the publishers of EX, was launched before the Wigan home game at Upton Park on Saturday, August 25.

Former Hammer Ray Stewart appeared in the Stadium Store to sign copies at the official launch of our new book.

Penalty king 'Tonka' was making a rare return trip south from his Scottish base in Perth. The previous night he and a number of other players attended the special dinner in honour of club photographer, Steve Bacon, held at Dagenham & Redbridge FC - CLICK HERE for the pictures.

IN MY DAY is a collection of candid interviews with 26 ex-West Ham players spanning the past five decades, including Stewart who made 431 first team appearances for the Irons between 1979 and 1991.

"If Volume One of IN MY DAY is well received, then we will continue to publish follow-up volumes on an annual basis," said publisher Tony McDonald.
