Dear God, Bolton have won at Everton! They now sit just one point below QPR who, with just one point from 21, must surely sit rock bottom of the “Current Form” table. Barton’s appeal against his red card has, meanwhile, been treated with contempt by the FA. Any money they now look at …

Leicester back in the reckoning! Southampton so unlucky!
Posted on 04 January 2012.
It was not only the Claret & Blue clad Crystal Palace fans who shuddered a little when Leicester won that game in South London. Suddenly a whole host of clubs started looking anxiously over the shoulder, fearful that the Foxes might abandon feeding off scraps from the Championship bins and start a charge for promotion. Our buffer is 12 points, and…

Campaign to block the sale of Tomkins
Posted on 04 January 2012.
This is the straw that breaks the camel’s back. It is time to make a stand. They are selling the ground, moving us to an athletics stadium and now they may be about to sell Tomkins – to Twattenham! Come on guys, speak out. Twitter Gold on @DavidGoldWHU and make your feelings clear. If you don’t, and Tomkins is sold, you…

Rumours: (Cole, Diamanti and Bassong)
Posted on 04 January 2012.
It is reported that Brescia haven’t paid us a single dime for Diamanti since he left (for peanuts may I add). UEFA and FIFA wont do anything about it and WHU are due to take Brescia to court. Now call me old fashioned but if you take something without paying isn’t that thing (Diamanti) rightfully the property of the…

Rumours (Zoko, Kebe, Piqman, Corluka, Tomkins & Whittingham)
Posted on 04 January 2012.
Apparently WHU have made a bid for Carlisle United striker François Zoko. Explosive pace, skill, immagination/ vision, relentless hard work and experience are the words Carlisle manager Gregg Abott uses to describe Zoko. No word on this offer being turned down either…. Zoko stats Unbelievable there appears to be huge interest in our shite striker …

Our season summed up in one game.
Posted on 03 January 2012.
Incredible, truly incredible. We sit in second place in the table, on course for automatic promotion courtesy of a single goal victory over Coventry. But we could have been top. Southampton and Middlesbrough played their parts by losing and shipping three goals apiece. Had we taken Coventry apart – as a team third from top playing a team second from…

QPR’s nasty stink in the Bush!
Posted on 03 January 2012.
You have to laugh. Norwich’s Bradley Johnson has had a pop at Joey Barton, but has clearly been told how to spell breath and been obliged to make a correction – check out the A which has obviously been changed from a T. But never mind Barton’s “breth”, there’s a nasty stink in the Bush in…

Hammers set to sign a (lilly)shite
Posted on 03 January 2012.
WEST HAM are set to sign Spurs right-back Vedran Corluka on loan until the end of the season. The Croatia star has played just three Premier League games for Tottenham this season due to the emergence of Kyle Walker. Corluka is desperate to play first-team football — fearing that more time on the sidelines will jeopardise …

Players ratings Click to view slideshow. The pursuit of promotion was never going to be pretty under Sam Allardyce but that has never been the point. The arch‑pragmatist was hired to achieve a return to the Premier League by any means necessary and this blustery victory, coupled with the defeat of Middlesbrough, restored them…

QPR fans forming queue to consult sage
Posted on 02 January 2012.
Excuse me for a moment whilst I pull up my post on New Years Eve. Now what did I write exactly? Hang on, the headline was “QPR now desperate for a win on Monday” and the final paragraph read, “Norwich will now know that defeat at Loftus Road could be disastrous. All the promoted clubs …

West Ham 1 Coventry 0 – Satan Gives and Allardyce Takes
Posted on 02 January 2012.
Well Satan is fulfilling his part of the bargain. This was another stuttering performance – with the team again only managing a single goal against weak opposition – but incredibly, we sit joint top at the end of the day. Never mind events at Upton Park, Southampton and Miserableboro both suffered 3-0 defeats, with the Saints losing Lambert to a red cars for …

Wolves want Piquionne
Posted on 02 January 2012.
Hard to believe! Why would anybody want a 33 year old striker who can’t score and who has been relegated in each of the last two seasons? Perhaps somebody has misunderstood and Doctor Evil has simply decided to feed the Fly Tipper to the pack of wolves he keeps in the woods around his castle!

Could we really sign Kebe?
Posted on 01 January 2012.
Apparently we are interested in Reading’s Kebe. You have to ask “Really?” on two counts. Firstly, the guy is very, very, very hit and miss. The guy is 27 and has achieved nothing in the game to date, managing just 3 caps for Mali! Reading fans regard him as lightweight, a player who lacks heart and desire. He is…

‘Start justifying your huge salaries!’
Posted on 31 December 2011.
West Ham boss Sam Allardyce has issued a warning to John Carew and Frederic Piquionne that they need to start scoring goals to justify their huge salaries. Carew and Piquionne have struggled to hit the back of the net this season, despite being two of the biggest names in the Championship. Carew has won three league titles during …

Does Allardyce Suspect New Year’s Eve Foul Play?
Posted on 31 December 2011.
Very interesting to read Doctor Evil’s comments about New Year’s Eve parties allied to his comments about how “unusual” it is to have so many players collecting yellow cards in a game when they are already on four cards and a game away from suspension! Allardyce makes it crystal clear that a player would be putting his…

January. A time for fingers to get burnt

Managers are rightly wary of being forced into the January sales Buying and selling players in mid‑season is a dodgy business at the best of times – and for every £7m Dean Ashton there is a £50m Fernando Torres January, according to the old rhyme, brings the snow that makes our feet and …

At £8m, is Newcastle’s price right for Tomkins?
Posted on 30 December 2011.
Not sure where this figure has come from but it is featured in one report on the web. The £3m offers for JT were complete jokes, but could we afford to reject an £8m offer? In the current market, that figure looks a bit tasty. Tomkins is good and has the…

Marek Štěch – Wanted

West Ham goalkeeper Marek Stech has revealed Championship rivals Burnley are keen on acquiring his services. The 21-year-old Czech has been frozen out at Upton Park, primarily due to the impressive form of No.1 Rob Green. Stech had been on loan at Yeovil Town earlier this season, but was recalled by manager Sam Allardyce…

O dear, it looks like Huddersfield are playing hard ball over Jordan Rhodes. It appears the Terriers are going to hold on to him like – well like a terrier holds on to a rag. Will we up the bid or look elsewhere? £3m already looked like a gamble to me, anything more would be very…
