One of Arry’s first targets in January is believed to be Kevin Nolan. I was kind of hoping he would take Carlton off our hands but obviously he isn’t that stupid, what he does want though is a goal scoring midfielder along with strikers. Nolan is said to be top of his list because he knows he needs goals to stand any chance of staying up so two goals scorers plus …

West Ham Set The Right Example After Tottenham Shame
Posted on 26 November 2012.
At last, action. I’m delighted to see that the club are asking Tottenham to help identify fans guilty of racist chanting and are promising life bans for anybody found to be engaging in this sick and shameful activity. The only pity is that it has taken until now to act. This…

After Tottenham Defeat, is it Time to Panic?
Posted on 26 November 2012.
Yesterday was sobering to say the least. Before the game I said that this is not a great Spurs team and that only Bale is brilliant – and I hold to that – but we made them look like world beaters for much of the game. To be fair, had we made it to half time …

Tottenham 3 West Ham 1 – Murdered!

Not much to say really. Carroll scored but was at fault for the third Tottenham goal. We were totally outclassed. End of.

Bit of nostalgia…….
Posted on 24 November 2012.
Jimmy Greaves’ debut for us – after Martin Peters & 200k moved the other way. For those also that have fond memories of ‘muddy pitches’ – they didn’t often come muddier than Maine road, & what a fantastic opportunistic (or intentional?) 3rd goal by Ronnie Boyce. Happy days……

What Redknapp Learnt From QPR’s Trip To Old Trafford
Posted on 24 November 2012.
If you are winning 1-0 and think, “It’s time to give Anton a run out”, think again! Did the younger Ferdinand bring the curtain down on his QPR career today I wonder? Apart from losing the game, it’s been a reasonable day for ‘Arry. Sunderland and Reading both lost and Villa only picked up a home point, albeit against Arsenal. So QPR are still only two …

Warnock’s Leeds Begin Their Charge!
Posted on 24 November 2012.
Just as I predicted, Leeds overturned league leaders Crystal Palace this afternoon. The result was always on the cards after the surge in optimism following the takeover, and with two new players joining the squad and seeking to salvage their careers. With Middlesborough, Hull, Huddersfield and Blackburn all losing, this could prove to be a red letter day for Leeds come the end of the…

Redknapp’s First QPR Prayer Answered At Sunderland
Posted on 24 November 2012.
Well ‘Arry’s off to a perfect start with Sunderland losing at home to West Brom. That keeps O’Neill’s wailing Black Cats within reach. Now, it’s just a little matter of QPR winning at Old Trafford. Well, according to ‘Arry, the Hula Hoops need a miracle to stay up! As for O’Neill, he seems to have lost the plot completely. Two goals down at half time and with …

Former QPR Boss Warnock In Leeds Dreaming of Seventeenth Heaven
Posted on 24 November 2012.
Old Big Gob couldn’t resist sticking the knife into Mark Hughes whilst blowing his own trumpet could he? With Sparky ushered out of the same managerial revolving door that he was pushed through by Fernandes, Warnock triumphantly declared, “There was also the comment at the end of last season when my successor said after coming 17th, the same position I left them in, ‘we won’t be in this position again’. Unfortunately he was proved right; QPR have not been that…

QPR Expects, Can Redknapp Deliver?
Posted on 23 November 2012.
So, for the one millionth time, Mark Hughes was not going to be sacked as QPR’s manager – so said Tony Fernandes. And that was after the 1-3 reverse at home to fellow strugglers Southampton. Less than a week later, Hughes is out of a job and QPR fans must be wondering if Tony the Great knows his arse from his elbow. Who is running the show at Loftus Road? Fernandes clearly wanted to retain Hughes but it appears that he has cracked under pressure from the fans and other members of the Board. So now the Hula Hoops go into the game with Manchester United without a manager – and where’s the sense in that? Why not give …

Is it time to expose the Academy myth?
Posted on 23 November 2012.
It is our big boast. OK, a World Cup apart, we have never really won much – a few FA Cups, a Cup Winners Cup and an Inter Toto token – but we are the seedbed of English football talent. Made in West Ham is stamped on the arse of most talented English players and without Tony Carr and our famed Academy, the England national team would be…well rubbish! Just trot out the names of our home grown stars: Moore, Hurst, Peters, Brooking, Martin, …

Birmingham sign young Hammers colt whilst Leeds opt for two old nags
Posted on 23 November 2012.
So, with Birmingham hoping for a takeover and Leeds in the throes of a “period of transition”, two very different approaches have been adopted as both “sleeping giants” seek to revive their fortunes by signing players on loan. Lee Clark has opted for youth and ability, taking young Hall to St Andrews to team up with Ravel Morrison, whilst Old Big Gob has gone with the tired and tested, adding two more old nags to his stable of “fit for the knacker’s”. Time will tell which policy will prove the more successful. Of course time was when…

No definite news on the Jarvis and Benayoun front. Both came off early against Newcastle and with the extra day’s recovery time, let’s hope both are fit to start tonight. If not, Allardyce has a problem. Maiga doesn’t yet cut it for me, despite that goal. …
