West Ham board thrilled with Parker courage in Wigan triumph

West Ham United's board was delighted with Scott Parker's courage in victory over Wigan Athletic.

Parker scored the third against Wigan despite a lingering chest infection.

Co-chairman David Gold said: "On Friday, Scott had a temperature, a virus, and a chest infection. Yet 24 hours later he scored a fantastic goal.

"The run he made, lots of people without a virus wouldn't have made, but he is the stalwart."
