David Moyes is hoping it is finally his turn to win a trophy at the climax of West Ham's march through Europe - and that his father will be there to see it.
The Hammers go into the away leg of their Europa League semi-final at Eintracht Frankfurt 2-1 down but with high hopes of overturning that deficit and reaching the final in Seville in a fortnight.
Moyes' father David snr, 86, has been there at every step of the remarkable journey which saw West Ham top a difficult group before knocking out Sevilla and Lyon.
A managerial career that began with Preston 24 years ago is now hitting the heights, and beyond, of Moyes' successful spell with Everton, and the Scot wants to cap it with a major European trophy - West Ham's first in 57 years.
