Was Scott Parker right?

I’ve been running this through my head this whole week after our truly dire result against Bolton last Saturday. I was an awful result only further drilled in after their result last night against Sunderland. They lost 4-0 if you didn’t catch it. Which really does make us look even more silly.
Before hand we all [...]

There is no news…

After the last couple of seasons we’ve endured in the media, I’m delighted to report that there is no new West Ham news.
Perhaps finally, after takeovers, athletes denying us the olympic stadium, Zola’s career, debt and lawsuits, we can focus on the football
COYI!

What the Olympic Stadium could look like if we move in [IMAGES]

I’ve been speaking to a mate of mine who works for an architecture firm in Brentwood, and he’s been able to put together some mockups as to what the Olympic Stadium could look like if it was to become the new home of West Ham.
Obviously they’re not official! Still they are a good way to [...]

Mido – good or bad signing? [POLL]

OK  my earlier post about not being at all happy with the Mido signing  got some stick. It is clear that plenty of people feel that he’s a good acquisition to the side.
I deliberately titled that post ‘A knee-jerk Mido reaction’ because it was literally that, a knee-jerk reaction. As I mentioned in a comment [...]

A knee-jerk Mido reaction

On the potential of signing Mido…
I don’t want to see some overweight, has-been, who has never proved himself consistently at the top level and who is neither good enough to feature for Middlesbrough, in a West Ham shirt.
I don’t care how little we pay him, or how much he wants to to prove a point. [...]

An elbow, yes. But it was poor

There seems to be so much to talk about at the Boleyn these days…unfortunately not all good.
In hopefully a couple of posts I will cover my thoughts on all of the takeover (including Karren Braidie), old saggy chops and his schemes to become the least original wheeler deeler football has ever seen and of course [...]
