Fans will get the chance to meet Tony Cottee when he signs copies of his new Career Goals DVD before the Everton match on Sunday.
Cottee, the 1986 PFA Young Player of the Year, netted his first goal for the Hammers as a 17-year-old in the 3-0 victory over Spurs at the Boleyn Ground on New Year's Day 1983.
It would be the first of 146 goals he would net in two spells in a claret and blue shirt, including the 26 he scored when helping West Ham secure their best-ever league placing of third in the old Division One in 1985/86. That figure helps him remain fifth in West Ham's all-time scoring list, a position unlikely to change in the current football climate where players rarely stay at the same club for more than a few years.
As such, fans will be delighted to learn that nearly 250 of the 306 senior goals the Hammers great scored during a glittering 18-year career have been put together for the first time on 'Career Goals', a new DVD showcasing the very best of the Forest Gate-born striker.
Career Goals is introduced by Russell Brand, who provides an original eulogy to Cottee's talents. The DVD also features Tony Gale's revelations about the striker's infamous over-zealous scrapbook keeping and Ray Winstone's memories of the player he thought was a ball boy when he first saw him in a Hammers' shirt.
The 44-year-old will be appearing at the Stadium Store on Sunday between 11.30am - 1pm ahead of the Barclays Premier League fixture with another of his former clubs, Everton. There, he will be signing copies during the exclusive pre-release fortnight before it hits shops up and down the country.
