I’ve seen a lot of comments on social media suggesting that those who booed West Ham this weekend against Swansea are “plastic fans” and didn’t deserve to go to the game and back the team. How can they be plastic fans? I have only been a season ticket holder at the club for five years and over the past few games it has been perhaps the most frustrating to watch West Ham play. Our excuse last season for …

Remembering Mooro today is so easy…because there’s barely a day of my life passes when I don’t. I was honoured that the man who was my greatest hero as I watched from the west enclosure back in the 60s later became a colleague and friend when I ghost wrote his weekly columns and match reports […]

Four games. Three wins. Zero losses. Seven goals scored. I think it’s fair to say we’ve owned Liverpool this season, probably for the first time in any of our lifetimes. We’ve been a thorn in their side, disrupted their season made dominated their nightmares. And Angelo Ogbonna’s 121st minute winner against the Reds at the
