Don’t get me wrong, despite her comment about Liam Treadwell’s teeth, I am a huge fan of Clare Balding. She is brilliant in front of the camera and clearly knows her sport. Indeed Gabby Logan and Clare form the perfect Cagney and Lacey of BBC Sport…

A New Olympian World Born In London 2012
Posted on 05 August 2012.
I am old enough to remember the Cold War. In fact, I travelled to Berlin to see in the new year for 1990 because of the breach in the Wall. That heralded a new world, an end to the fears of a nuclear Armagedddon, and coincided with the…

A Night Of Pride – Football Apart!
Posted on 04 August 2012.
OK, the cricket fight back against South Africa was down to a South African, but that apart, and ignoring the bloody football, tonight is a night when we should feel proud to be British. I’m no fan of West Ham’s proposed move…

Another Depressing Friendly Performance
Posted on 04 August 2012.
At this rate, Allardyce is going to be sacked before the season kicks off! We played pretty close to a first pick 11, given the players unavailable due to injury or Olympics duties, and we were thumped. I suppose it was progress on …

Leeds United – The Painful Truth
Posted on 04 August 2012.
The question keeps arising, why I devote time to writing about a club I do not support – and we are talking Leeds United, not West Ham! Ever since this site was conceived, I have regarded it as a West Ham site first and foremost but used it to…

A High Resolution Experience
Posted on 02 August 2012.
There’s a new generation of devices really changing how we look at the web, Apple calls it Retina, others call it HiDPI (high dots per inch), but it’s been trickling its way up mostly through mobile phones and then in tablets with the …

No Whinge About Return Of Ginge!
Posted on 02 August 2012.
He’s back! The man we stupidly sold to fund the signing of Diamante has returned after a decidedly mixed spell at Villa. On the pitch he has been fine, off it, he has proved to be something of a tit…

Is Tevez coming home?
Posted on 01 August 2012.
On my way to work Ian Abrahams (Talkshite) said that his contacts at the club are saying that Carroll wont sign for us and we have turned our attention to Tevez who has apparently said he would be willing ‘to come home’. This deal will only be …

The Carroll Bid Fuels Speculation of New Investor in West Ham
Posted on 01 August 2012.
If it was a psychologically stable Tevez, it would still be madness. But a £36m deal – in salary and incentives alone – for a psychologically iffy, slightly above mediocre striker, is beyond mad and falls into the realm of the utterly surreal. I am still of the opinion that this…

Warnock Set To Add Another Piece To His Leeds Dream Team
Posted on 31 July 2012.
Having recruited four players from Portsmouth, Warnock is now hoping to add a fifth relegated player to his squad, Coventry City’s Martin Cranie. The Coventry man is available on a free, not that money should be a worry with billionaire owners just around the corner…

Defenders Arriving Like London Buses! Does Sullivan Read This Blog?
Posted on 31 July 2012.
No sooner did I post that we needed three defenders than we edge closer to landing three defenders. It was frightfully impolite of me to call Sullivan stupid, and I take it back given work has clearly been going on behind the scenes to strengthen the defence. Two centre…

Another ex Hammer and a Pole on the way?
Posted on 31 July 2012.
James ‘ginge’ Collins is due to complete his move back to WHU this week after leaving us in 2009 for Villa. Collins was part of one of the best defenses West Ham has had for years but I question this move. Generally when players come back for a …

What does the Mail know that others don’t?
Posted on 31 July 2012.
The Daily Mail are still insisting that Ramis is going to Wigan and not us. Just about everyone else says done deal between him and WHU, but the Mail are digging in their heels and insisting that we have lost out to Wigan. This appeared today:- Mail spouting bullshit? …

Caroll signing?

Touché
Posted on 30 July 2012.
It would appear that anything we can do Wigan can do better. Wigan were originally interest in Ramis until we came in with a late offer and Ramis changed his mind and chose us. ‘The deal was done’. The club announced it and…

Baldock off to Bristol?
Posted on 30 July 2012.
Would appear that West Ham have accepted Bristol City’s paltry 1.5 million offer for Sam Baldock. True, he possibly wouldn’t of got a game with us in the Premiership, but maybe he can find his way & his true potential with Bristol City.

What a load of Baldocks!
Posted on 30 July 2012.
So it looks like Little Sam is being off loaded to Bristol City for a fee of around £1.5m. There were such high hopes when we signed the guy from Milton Keynes Dons and when he found the net a few times early doors, it really did look…

Club keeping targets close to their chest

Probably a smart move because it’s a cut-throat business out their but who thought Ramis was on his way? No one knew about this until he was having a medical with us! Only G&S know if the next two targets are …

Ramis On His Way – But More Needed!

How good is he? No idea! But he is a defender and we desperately need a defender. In fact we desperately need three defenders so this is a start. Presumably he is going to play at centre back alongside Tomkins …
