High-flying West Ham United maintained their second-place in the top division with a 3-1 win over Arsenal on this day in 1983.
Trevor Brooking and Geoff Pike were on target for the Hammers, while a Chris Whyte own goal also helped them on their way to victory.
The Irons were enjoying a superb start to the 1983/84 campaign, riding high at the top of the table, although a slower end to the season would see them finish ninth.
