European Championships
We’re Misunderstood
As you probably know by now, I was out in Sweden for the semifinal and final of the U21 European Championships.
Obviously the final was a big disappointment, but we had a quality time whilst we were out there and it was great to see our boys in action (although we didn’t actually see Tomkins apart [...]
West Ham boys in Sweden: Report from Gothenburg
This has to go down as one of my favourtie blogs to write…obviously not because of it’s quality as I’ve not started yet, but because I’m writing it on a train from Gothenburg to Malmo; following the path of the England U21 team to the final of the European Championships.
I’ve been fortunate enough to have [...]
Doing England Proud: So Close
Unfortunately, the England U-19 side failed to qualify for the next round of their European Championships, despite beating Greece 3-0 and despite a goal from Freddy Sears.
Although they beat the Greek side, the Italians (who they needed to draw or to lose), narrowly scraped past the Czech Republic 4-3.
It’s a shame that they havn’t managed [...]
Doing England Proud: They Need A Win

The match finished 0-0, leaving England in a ‘must-win’ situation against Greece on Sunday to give them any hope of qualifying for the next stages.
They still may not qualify even if they [...]

I last left it with both Freddy Sears and James Tomkins being named in the provisional squad to travel out to the championships.
It is with great pleasure that [...]
Doing England Proud Part II: Sears and Tomkins
They are doing both England and West Ham proud. Following on from Doing England Proud Part I (funnily enough) I am delighted to write that both James Tomkins and Freddy Sears have been named in the provisional England U-19 to travel to the European Championships in the Czech Republic. As we all know, something the [...]
Mr.Sears: A Class Above
Freddy Sears (as you may know) was called up to the England U19’s squad ready to face Poland in a qualifier for their European Championships.
And, as we know he does so well, he duly repaid his call up by bagging a brace in the 2-0 victory last night.
The U19’s will need to be topping their [...]
