‘Promotion is the only thing’ Sam
Posted on 24 December 2011.
After a decade as a top-flight manager, Allardyce admits he has now exposed himself to a far more “ferocious and volatile” Championship than the one he hoped he had left behind for good when he gained promotion with Bolton Wanderers in 2001. “For every team we play against, we are the big scalp,” Allardyce says…

Brilliant Allardyce is so misunderstood
Posted on 24 December 2011.
He is’t a long ball merchant at all. He doesn’t advocate a bludgeoning style of football based on percentages and fitness levels. No, Doctor Evil is flexible and a fan of the beautiful game, providing that your definition of beauty is winning of course. Talking at the Telegraph, Sam explains that it was a charitable act to take on…

David Gold is NOT Dead.
Posted on 24 December 2011.
Despite headlines to the contrary on News Now, I am pleased to report that David Gold is not dead – well not the one that owns West Ham anyway. Another David Gold is dead, but he was not the frontman of West Ham United, he was the front man of “Woods of Ypres”. Seems tough…

QPR’s Warnock Beginning to Bluster
Posted on 23 December 2011.
Oh dear, Neil Warnock is now telling us that there’s not a lot of difference between QPR and the other promoted teams – and is putting the Rs lowly position in the table down to the late arrival of the new owners. This is all very odd because the last time…

Shut Up Collymore You Great Twitter!
Posted on 23 December 2011.
Well he was a complete arse when he was playing and a complete arse when he went dogging, so I suppose it should be no surprise that he is a complete arse as a pundit. Firing off unnecessarily because of Hansen’s “coloured” faux pas, Collymore couldn’t resist the rather pathetic, ” What colour would that be?…

O’Brien, Faye, Lansbury and Faubert available for Birmingham
Posted on 23 December 2011.
Unfortunately Baldock is still out, as are Taylor (injury) and Collison (suspended), but Doctor Evil has more options available to him for the Birmingham game than for the Barnsley match, which is a blessed relief. Presumably this will signal a return to a 4-5-1 formation, with the usual suspects shuffled and square …

If you had to pick
Posted on 23 December 2011.
Hammers boss Sam Allardyce has stepped up his search for potential January recruits this week with the emergence of two attacking prospects that are on West Ham’s radar.

Should we leave QPR and Fulham to fight over Maynard?
Posted on 22 December 2011.
With his contract running down, Bristol City have decided to give up the fight and let Maynard go. Now whilst the guy will be available at a bargain basement price, is that a good enough reason to sign him? He’s not exactly setting the Championship alight is he? His career …

Hansen Apology is Absurd.
Posted on 22 December 2011.
This is getting more stupid by the minute. Terry faces legal action BECAUSE he used the word black, and now Hansen has apologised for not using it! So bloody what that he used the word “coloured”? He isn’t in South Africa and it wasn’t meant to be insulting in any way whatsoever. Somebody…

Never mind the Academy, look who we lost!
Posted on 22 December 2011.
Dear God, as we bugger around trying to put together a team good enough to bludgeon it’s way to promotion, it hurts to see ex players performing so successfully in the shirts of other teams. This isn’t another gripe about selling the golden generation, because, to be honest, Rio and the loathed Lampard apart, none of them have proved that special…
