West Ham wiped away the bad memories of their last visit to Reading by leaving the Madejski Stadium with a well-deserved 3-0 win.

The Hammers had been thrashed 6-0 there on New Year's Day last term but never looked back after Craig Bellamy had given them an early lead.

Matthew Etherington added two more in the second half, but Reading had known it was not to be their day when Kevin Doyle's penalty was saved.

It had taken the home fans just a few minutes to start the inevitable '6-0' chants, but within seconds Bellamy had netted his third goal in claret and blue, adding to his midweek Carling Cup double at Bristol Rovers with aplomb.
