So the kick off for our away tie in Hartlepool has been scheduled for 12:40 on Saturday 24th, so that it fits in with ITV…for the more geographically astute readers, Hartlepool is on the North East coast, approximately 5 hours away…here’s a map:

That’s a long way to travel to get to an early [...]

What do people make of Duxburry interview?

So the Official Site have just released a Q+A with Scott Duxburry - I am interested to hear what people make of this. I personally found it quite encouraging, but then again he has lied to us before!

It contains questions about the clubs finances, players to be sold etc in the January window, personally I [...]

West Ham To Sell Entire First Team Squad To Spurs

Perhaps it’s just me, or is every single newspaper in the country writing a story about how we are selling all of our best players and keeping all of our fringe players in the January transfer window? Harry Redknapp at Spurs is more than likely to be after most of them at some point or [...]

West Ham 2-1 Stoke: From Spineless to Gutsy

On the 24th August this year, I wrote about our spineless performance against Manchester City. I don’t know how well people remember that game, but it was ugly to the eye, we looked devoid of any type of passion for the cause, we looked unfit and inept in all departments. It was a pitiful shambles, [...]

Cole Needs Lessons? He Really Is That Awful

When Cole unfortunately signed a 5-year deal recently, it was comments from Duxburry that really got my back up, “This news underlines that as a club we are only thinking of moving forward, and are on a sound financial footing”. At the time that really annoyed me as it was a blatant lie - both [...]

So a second of our strikers this week has signed a new deal with the club. Freddy Sears signed today for a further 5-years which will see him in the Claret and Blue until 2013.
Either that or we are improving the amount of money we can ask for him in the transfer window….depending on your [...]

More Bad News For West Ham Fans as the Credit Crunch Hits Hard

So Carlton Cole has signed a new 5-Year contract.
Devestated.
That for me however is not the bad news, although I don’t really rate Cole. What is really disappointing is the comments from him and Scott Duxburry in light of the agreement.
Firstly, Cole:
I am here for quite a while so it is time to knuckle down.-BBC Sport

Sunderland 0-1 West Ham: Where Ginger Rules Supreme

So, I won’t lie to you, that’s the most nervous I have been watching a game of football for a long while. It was a massive game, where a loss would have seen us slip into the relegation zone on goal difference.
We needed a huge performance from every player on the pitch today and in [...]
