West Ham put in a tantalising display of traditional attacking football that made Liverpool look like an average side rather than a title chasing team. The tactics were a joy to behold, the starting eleven all gave 100%, the atmosphere was electric, and everyone had nothing but positive things to say after the game. A… Read more »

We may only be four games into the season, 13th in the table and with one point less than at this stage last season, but Monday night’s 2-2 draw at Hull City has created a sense of optimism amongst fans. The team performed much better than in their inept display against Southampton and I believe… Read more »

Mario Balotelli – The big, strong, athletic striker hit the scoresheet in Champions League action midweek and will be looking to create havoc at the Boleyn Ground today. So what do West Ham do to make sure that doesn’t happen? Maybe man-marking is the answer. Balotelli, as everyone knows, has a short fuse and is prone… Read more »

As each day passes we edge ever closer to saying goodbye to the Boleyn Ground. The ground where we all fell in love with West Ham. The ground where we’ve both laughed and cried in delight or anguish. The ground where West Ham have proudly strutted their stuff for 110 years. But that is all… Read more »

Three games in and personally I’m yet to be convinced. The nine signings in the summer window are making us look a ‘very good squad,’ and I applaud the two Davids for their input. But, as we all know, three points out of nine and three home defeats before the end of August doesn’t bode… Read more »

Just over two years ago, West Ham pulled off something of a coup in signing Mohamed Diame from Wigan Athletic in order to boost the Hammers’ midfield upon returning to the top flight. The Senegal international joined on a free transfer with West Ham beating the likes of Liverpool to secure his signature. However, despite… Read more »

Two weeks ago, on Wednesday 13th August to be exact, Sheffield United were hosting, their ‘local’ rivals Mansfield Town in a dour Capital One cup game. How totally uninteresting. Until that is, the Radio Sheffield commentary team mentioned that the winners of the tie would play West Ham United in the next round With 80 minutes… Read more »

It’s finlly here! The opening weekend of the new season. Spurs at home. Oh how we’ve missed you! It’s been a bit of a turbulent pre-season (well, what did you expect!?) and, without the addition of a few new faces, we’re expected a similar approach from Sam Allardyce as most of last season. Andy Carroll… Read more »

With the 2014/15 season fast approaching, the Hammers faithful have been left with much to be desired following just two wins from eight pre-season games. Once again we are left craving more goals. The additions of Argentine Mauro Zarate and World Cup wonder Enner Valencia has left much optimism amongst Irons fans. However, Andy Carroll has… Read more »

Ravel Morrison today revealed that he’ll be back in training on Thursday following a groin injury picked up early pre-season. He’s also recently revealed that he’s been handed the number 14 shirt for the season, which has to be the biggest hint yet that he still has a role to play in the first team…. Read more »

As we embark on our penultimate season at the Boleyn Ground, the inevitable dreams, doubts and, of course, nightmares begin to surface. We’re counting down the hours to the big kick-off and it just had to be Spurs, didn’t it? So the question now springs to mind – how well have we equipped ourselves to… Read more »

The club says the fans have spoken. The fans say the club has spoken. Either way, this whole new crest idea has turned in to one hell of a controversy. Whether you like West Ham’s new crest design or not, you can’t deny that the way in which the club have gone about adopting it… Read more »

With the 2015-2016 season set to be our last at Upton Park, many ideas have been voiced about making our last year at Upton Park one to remember. Themed matches has been one idea with each home match dedicated to a former player or manager. I think this is a fantastic idea. Players such as… Read more »

So the club have done the inevitable and opened a consultation about the a potential change of the club’s crest to coincide with West Ham’s move to the Olympic Stadium in August 2016. It’s something most fans was expecting and a decision many had previously been open to, but under the proviso that the club’s… Read more »

West Ham prides itself on being a big club and, even though they haven’t won a major trophy since their FA Cup final triumph in 1980, they still regularly fill the Boleyn Ground. Outsiders may struggle to understand why this is, but here’s my story as a long distance West Ham fan whose round trip… Read more »

If reports on Goal are to be believed, West Ham are amongst a number of clubs looking at Borussia Dortmund striker Julian Schieber. The 25-year-old is out of favour at Dortmund after registering just one goal in 20 Bundesliga appearances last term, having struggled to keep Robert Lewandowski out of the team. And now it’s… Read more »

Well, not exactly. We’re all well used to some of the most outrageous transfer rumours flying around during a window, and we occasionally see a couple happened for real (Carlos Tevez coming to West Ham wasn’t exactly a run of the mill transfer rumour that became reality). But while Arsenal, Man City, Liverpool and Man… Read more »

When Sam Allardyce was given the green light to continue at Upton Park last Tuesday, he immediately started planning for the upcoming season. This included identifying players he wanted, wasting no time in setting his sights on Argentinean forward Mauro Zarate, and a three-year deal has now been completed. Various press reports are claiming that… Read more »

One of the highlights of last season was our defence and the number of clean sheets we kept. But since then we’ve seen George McCartney released, Pablo Armero sent back to Napoli and, of course, the not so premature release of Razvan Rat. So we’re going to need to strengthen at the back a little,… Read more »

After constructive talks with the co-owners, it was announced earlier this week that Sam Allardyce will remain at Upton Park for the foreseeable future following what was a disappointing season, finishing just seven points off the relegation zone in 13th place. The storm over Allardyce’s future began early in the season, as the fans probably… Read more »

So that’s it then. He’s staying and there’s nothing an online poll or a banner outside the chairman’s house can do about it. Sam Allardyce has saved his job by promising two things; employing an attacking coach and playing more attractive football. Both of which the fans will be genuinely happy to hear. But that… Read more »

It seems strange to talk about replacements for Sam Allardyce when he still has his ample frame in the managers chair. But lately, three candidates have appeared to be in a race on their own to be West Hams next manager, if you believe what you read in tomorrows chip paper. Those three candidates are David Moyes, Gus… Read more »

The football West Ham fans were regularly forced to endure over this season has quite rightly got the fans calling for Allardyce to be sacked. The money that loyal fans pay to watch the Hammers every week is astronomical, and they’ve deserved a lot more for their hard earned cash on so many occasions throughout… Read more »
