Tidy, good comparison but I would say ours was still more difficult because:-

1. We played two games in three days, three games in seven days.
2. We had a good go at Arsenal ..... if we had a goal scorer would have won? Didn't watch only read text commentary / stats.
3. We played at home then we travelled down to London

West Ham played:-
1. Two games in nine days or three games in ten days if you go back one day further to boxing day.
2. They didn't really play against us, scoring twice as we tried. Again convert our first half chances different result
3. They played at home (in London) and then travelled to ........ London., like us going to the custard bowl.

Not excuses ....... the game is lost and now we move on but ......... just food for thought

....also Wet Sham were playing against another team who had played only 2 days before, so that was effectively cancelled out
